The liquid rocket engine comprises a fuel gas generator, a centrifugal pump, a thrust chamber and the like. When the centrifugal pump works, the pump wheel rotates at high speed to pressurize liquid, the outlet of the pump wheel is a high-pressure area, the inlet of the pump wheel is a low-pressure area, and the pump shell is a fixed part, so that a certain gap is formed between the pump wheel and the pump shell, and high-pressure liquid leaks inwards to the inlet of the pump wheel under the action of pressure difference, namely volume loss is caused. To reduce this part loss, a fixed seal ring or a floating seal ring is typically placed at the shoulder of the impeller.
At present, a fixed seal opening ring generally leaves a larger gap for preventing the fixed seal opening ring from being in collision and abrasion with a convex shoulder of a pump wheel, and the throttling effect is poor. The floating seal ring has the advantage of good throttling effect, and is widely applied to a system with high requirement on the performance of the centrifugal pump to reduce the volume loss and improve the pump efficiency.
However, when the floating seal ring is started and shut down along with the system, the bearing capacity of the gap fluid is insufficient under the condition of low rotating speed, the floating seal ring is in short contact to form sliding friction and then is abraded, the seal gap is increased after multiple operations, the pump efficiency is reduced, the rotating speed is low under the low working condition, and the problem also exists. In a high-speed and low-pressure system, if the end face pressure of the seal ring is too low, the floating seal ring and the impeller may wear to lower the pump efficiency.

The following describes the technical solutions of the present application and how to solve the above technical problems with specific embodiments.
As shown in fig. 1 to 5, the embodiment of the present application provides a seal mouth ring 3 for a centrifugal pump of a liquid rocket engine, the seal mouth ring 3 is used for forming a seal pair between a pump wheel 2 and a pump shell 1 of the centrifugal pump of the liquid rocket engine, and the seal mouth ring 3 comprises: the outer ring 32 is sleeved outside the inner ring 31 and used for packaging and limiting the inner ring 31. The inner side wall of the inner ring 31 is used for being sleeved at the shoulder position of the pump wheel 2, and the outer side wall of the outer ring 32 is used for being in clearance fit with the pump shell 1. The shoulder position of the pump impeller 2 refers to a position where the size of the shaft body of the pump impeller 2 changes abruptly.
Specifically, referring to fig. 4 and 5, the inner ring 31 is provided with a plurality of ball holes 31a in a circumferential direction, the ball holes 31a are arranged in a radial direction of the inner ring 31 and penetrate through the inner ring 31, and a ball 33 is arranged in each ball hole 31a, and the ball 33 is freely movable in the ball hole 31 a. As shown in fig. 6, a diameter d3 of an end of the ball hole 31a remote from the outer ring 32 is smaller than a diameter d1 of the balls 33, so that the balls 33 are confined in the ball hole 31a without falling out.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, there may be one or two or more, and this is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present application.
Further, with continued reference to fig. 6, the depth h1 of the ball hole 31a in the radial direction of the inner ring 31 is smaller than the diameter d1 of the balls 33, so that a part of the balls 33 can be exposed to the outside of the ball hole 31a, and the balls 33 can be in rolling contact with the pump impeller 2 when the oil seal bearing capacity is insufficient.
During operation, as shown in fig. 2, fluid flows from a high-pressure region to a low-pressure region through a seal gap δ between the pump wheel 2 and the inner side of the seal ring (corresponding to the inner side of the inner ring 31), and the left end surface of the seal ring 3 is brought into contact with the end surface of the pump housing 1 by the high-pressure fluid to seal the seal ring. When the pump wheel 2 is in a high-rotating-speed working condition, the sealing opening ring 3 floats under the action of fluid film bearing force in the sealing gap delta, so that the sealing opening ring is separated from a convex shoulder of the pump wheel 2, and throttling work is performed in a non-contact mode.
When the pump wheel 2 works under the working conditions of starting, shutdown or low rotating speed, the bearing capacity of a fluid film in the sealing gap delta is insufficient, the sealing opening ring 3 cannot float, and at the moment, the balls 33 in the ball hole 31a are in rolling contact with the shoulder of the pump wheel 2; similarly, in a system with high rotation speed and low pressure, the same effect is achieved when the seal opening ring 3 cannot float due to the fact that the end face pressure is too small and the inertia force of the floating ring is large. The sealing opening ring 3 structure avoids the problem that the traditional sealing opening ring 3 and the pump impeller 2 are seriously abraded, improves the sealing performance of products, and increases the reliability and the operating efficiency of the centrifugal pump of the liquid rocket engine.
The seal ring 3 provided in the present embodiment has the ball holes 31a and the balls 33 provided in the inner ring 31, and the seal ring 3 floats by the load of the fluid film so that the balls 33 can be separated from the pump impeller 2; when the pump wheel 2 is under the working conditions of starting, shutdown and low rotating speed or the working conditions of high rotating speed and low pressure, because the bearing capacity of a fluid film in a sealing gap is insufficient, the sealing opening ring 3 is in contact with the pump wheel 2 under the action of gravity, and because the radial depth of the ball hole 31a along the inner ring 31 is smaller than the diameter of the ball 33, a part of the ball 33 is positioned outside the ball hole 31a and is in contact with the pump wheel 2, so that the rolling contact between the sealing opening ring 3 and the pump wheel 2 is realized, the abrasion between the sealing opening ring and the pump wheel 2 is reduced, the sealing effect between the pump wheel 2 and the pump shell 1 is improved, and the reliability and the operating efficiency of the liquid rocket engine centrifugal pump are improved.
Optionally, referring to fig. 5, the size of the opening of the left end surface of the outer ring 32 is shrunk inwards, that is, the diameter of the opening of the left end surface of the outer ring 32 is smaller than the diameter of the opening at the position where the outer ring 32 is matched with the inner ring 31, so as to form a shoulder structure, so that the axial limit when the inner ring 31 is matched with the outer ring 32 is facilitated, thereby improving the preparation efficiency of the sealing ring, and simultaneously improving the structural stability of the whole sealing ring.
In some embodiments, with continued reference to fig. 3-6, ball bore 31a includes a first bore segment (not shown) and a second bore segment (not shown) connected in series, the first bore segment being located at an end of the second bore segment adjacent outer ring 32, i.e., the first bore segment is closer to outer ring 32 than the second bore segment. The diameter of the first bore section does not change, i.e. the first bore section may be regarded as a cylindrical bore. The diameter of the second hole section gradually becomes smaller from one end close to the first hole section to one end far away from the first hole section, namely the second hole section can be regarded as a conical hole. Furthermore, the diameter d2 of the first bore section is equal to the maximum diameter of the second bore section.
Specifically, when the fluid film bearing force is insufficient, the balls 33 are in contact with the inner side wall of the second hole section by gravity, and a portion of the balls 33 is exposed to the outside of the ball hole 31a from the end of the second hole section away from the first hole section (the exposed size of the balls 33 to the ball hole 31a is h 3). The clearance e between the ball 33 and the hole bottom is ensured by adjusting the depth h2 of the first hole section (or the depth of the second hole section), the hole bottom angle alpha and the diameter d3 of one end of the second hole section far away from the first hole section, so that the ball 33 can move freely up and down.
In this embodiment, the ball hole 31a is designed in a sectional structure, and includes a cylindrical first hole section and a conical second hole section, since the diameter of the end of the second hole section far from the first hole section is smaller than the diameter of the ball 33, the ball 33 can be prevented from falling out of the ball hole 31a, and the diameter of the ball 33 is larger than the sum of the depths of the first hole section and the second hole section, so that a part of the ball 33 can be exposed outside the ball hole 31a to be in rolling contact with the pump wheel 2 when the fluid film bearing force is insufficient.
In some embodiments, with continued reference to fig. 5 and 6, the seal ring 3 further includes a ball sleeve 34 in addition to the outer ring 32, the inner ring 31 and the balls 33, the ball sleeve 34 is embedded in the first hole section of the ball hole 31a, and an end of the ball sleeve 34 away from the outer ring 32 abuts against a junction of the second hole section and the first hole section (i.e., a size abrupt change position of the ball hole 31 a).
Specifically, an interference fit may be provided between an outer sidewall of the ball sleeve 34 and an inner sidewall of the first bore section to prevent the ball sleeve 34 from loosening or falling off. The balls 33 are in clearance fit with the ball sleeve 34, so that the balls 33 can move in the ball sleeve 34. Ball sleeve 34 mainly used protects ball 33, reduces ball 33's wearing and tearing, also can carry on spacingly to ball 33 simultaneously, avoids ball 33 to rock in ball hole 31a and influence the rolling contact effect.
Alternatively, the material of the ball sleeve 34 includes a soft metal material having self-lubricity or a non-metal material, wherein the soft metal material having self-lubricity may be copper or silver, and the non-metal material having self-lubricity may be fluoroplastic, ceramic, or graphite.
In this embodiment, the ball sleeve 34 is arranged in the ball hole 31a, so that the ball 33 can be protected, the abrasion of the ball 33 is reduced, the ball 33 can be limited, and the rolling contact effect is prevented from being influenced by the fact that the ball 33 shakes in the ball hole 31 a; the ball sleeve 34 is made of soft metal material or non-metal material with self-lubricating property, so that the friction force of the balls 33 between the inner walls of the ball sleeve 34 can be reduced, the rolling flexibility of the balls 33 is improved, and the abrasion of the balls 33 is reduced.
In some embodiments, with continued reference to fig. 1 and 6, the maximum size of the exposed inner ring 31 of the balls 33 needs to be smaller than the sealing gap δ between the pump impeller 2 and the pump casing 1, so that when the seal ring 3 floats under the load-bearing force of the oil seal, the exposed balls 33 are ensured not to contact with the pump impeller 2, thereby reducing the wear of the balls 33.
In some embodiments, in order to make the connection between the inner ring 31 and the outer ring 32 tighter, the outer side of the inner ring 31 and the inner side of the outer ring 32 are in an interference fit. In the specific process preparation process of the seal mouth ring 3, after the balls 33 are installed in the corresponding ball holes 31a on the inner ring 31, the ball 33 can be encapsulated and limited by installing the outer ring 32.
Alternatively, the inner ring 31 and the outer ring 32 may be assembled by a hot assembly method or a press assembly method, so as to ensure an interference fit between the inner ring 31 and the outer ring 32.
In this embodiment, the outer ring 32 and the inner ring 31 are in interference fit, so that the structural strength and the sealing performance between the outer ring 32 and the inner ring 31 can be improved, the separation of the outer ring 32 and the inner ring 31 in the working process to cause the falling of the balls 33 is avoided, the sealing effect of the whole sealing opening ring 3 is favorably improved, and the stability of the whole liquid rocket engine centrifugal pump is improved.
