Description

Air inlet assembly for ventilation and cooling of engine core cabin and aeroengine
Technical Field
The utility model relates to an air inlet assembly for ventilation cooling of an engine core cabin and an aeroengine comprising the air inlet assembly for ventilation cooling of the engine core cabin, and belongs to the technical field of ventilation cooling of aircraft power devices.
Background
Many heat sources exist in the core cabin of the aviation turbofan engine, and when the aviation turbofan engine operates, the heat sources emit heat, so that the heat accumulation temperature in the core cabin is increased, and the service life of components in the core cabin is influenced. At the same time, volatile build-up of flammable liquids within the cabin may also occur, possibly leading to a fire in the system. Therefore, ventilation cooling of the engine core is an indispensable design.
The ventilation cooling scheme of an aircraft engine core generally includes a core ventilation cooling system and a core component specific cooling system. Both of which are used for introducing a small part of the external duct air flow into the core cabin as ventilation cooling air flow, and the core cabin ventilation cooling system is used for introducing the external duct air flow into the core cabin for overall ventilation cooling in the core cabin, and the core cabin part special cooling system is used for introducing the external duct air flow to certain parts by utilizing pipelines as special cooling air flow of the parts.
In order to ensure that ventilation air flow in the core cabin is uniformly distributed and has no flowing dead zone, the cooling effect in the cabin is fully realized, the surface temperature of each part in the core cabin meets the design requirement, and the design of the ventilation cooling air inlet structure form is extremely critical.
The air inlet structure of the prior ventilation and cooling system of the core cabin mainly has two forms:
a) One form is through-type air inlet, and this through-hole air inlet form has guaranteed the interior sufficient ventilation cooling air flow air inflow of core cabin, and along the radial velocity of flow of core cabin faster, can utilize comparatively quick radial air current to realize local forced heat transfer effect, obtain showing local cooling effect, but air current distribution homogeneity is relatively poor, especially in the regional apparent air current dead zone that easily appears in the surrounding area of this air inlet, also be unfavorable for fully realizing the circumference position ventilation cooling in the core cabin, the overall cooling effect is not good.
B) In another form, the straight-through air inlet is changed into a straight cylinder grille type air inlet, and air flow can only flow out along the circumferential direction of the straight cylinder, so that the uniformity of the air flow is improved to a certain extent. However, this structure inevitably comes at the cost of more total pressure loss, and the overall air flow and heat exchange cooling capacity in the core cabin is reduced, and is not suitable for the situation that local heat accumulation exists and concentrated cooling is required.
The air inlet structure of the cooling system special for the core cabin component at present is a straight-through pipeline, and the external air flow is directly blown to the surface of the component to be cooled.
However, prior art cabin ventilation cooling schemes do not compromise the gas flow capacity and intake uniformity of the engine cabin.
