Definitions
- the present invention relates to an improvement to the blades of cooled turbines.
- document US-A-3017 159 shows how one can achieve, in a blade, a combination of radial and tangential circulations, but this arrangement does not allow good homogeneity in cooling because the fluid which circulates along the part internal of the leading edge is used, when it is already heated, to cool the external part of the trailing edge.
- Document US-A-4 180 373 shows specialized compartments for the leading edge and the trailing edge but does not teach a method of homogeneous cooling of the latter by zone by zone control.
- the envisaged arrangement does not allow the respective flow rates of the compartments to be adjusted.
- the improved blade according to the invention which makes it possible to meet these criteria, comprises two cavities separated over the entire height of the blade by an internal partition supplied with a flow of cooling fluid including an upstream cavity and a divided downstream cavity in two radial and "tangential" flow zones towards the trailing edge.
- the upstream cavity has fins favoring heat exchanges and holes drilled in the leading edge and the downstream cavity comprises, in the central zone for the radial flow of the fluid, bridges, that is to say bars connecting the two internal faces of large section, while in the trailing edge area with "tangential" flow, said downstream cavity also includes bridges but of smaller section supplemented by deflector members guiding the radial flow, tangentially toward the trailing edge holes.
- This turbine blade according to the invention has a simple and efficient cooling circuit and is remarkable for its ease of manufacture and for the distribution of the heat exchanger members.
- This blade is of a very easy realization, because it allows the use of a core with two cavities.
- this blade has a high permeability, as well as the absence of baffles. Furthermore, by modifying the entry conditions (section of the diaphragms in particular), the exit conditions (apertures at the top, section and location of the emission zones) and by varying the size and spacing of the bridges, it is possible to control the local cooling of each portion of the blade, so avoid temperature heterogeneities in the metal of the blade.
- the good general cooling conditions and this absence of hot spots mean that this blade can be adapted to temperature conditions of the hot gases which can be much more severe than those of the blades of the prior art.
- FIGs 1 and 2 there is shown an embodiment of a turbine blade according to the invention which is cast in refractory metal and which comprises an upstream cavity 1 with radial flow and a downstream cavity 2 separated into two zones, one at radial flow and a tangential flow towards the trailing edge 3.
- the upstream cavity 1 is delimited by a leading edge 4 and by a partition 5 and it is crossed by an air flow which moves according to the arrows F, by entering through an opening 6 made in the foot 7 of the blade which has a platform 23, said flow being evacuated in part by holes 8 drilled in the leading edge and in part by an orifice 9 formed in the dawn hat 10.
- the hat 10 of the dawn is brought back or came from foundry with the dawn.
- the holes 8 of the leading edge are drilled either on the upper surface part at 8a, or on the lower surface part at 8b,. and either at the end of the leading edge in 8c if the available cooling air pressure is sufficient.
- the internal face of the leading edge 4 over the upper 2/3 of its height is provided with fins 11 promoting heat exchange fiques made up of small parallel ribs, extending in an axial plane. These ribs 11 may have the same height or different heights. It may also be advantageous to vary their spacing along the cavity.
- the downstream cavity 2, delimited by the internal partition 5 and by the trailing edge 3, is divided into two zones including a central zone comprising bridges 12 of large section and a trailing edge zone comprising bridges 13 of small section arranged in staggered rows and deflector members 14, these divert part of the radia flow! from the cavity 2 towards the orifices 15 of the trailing edge 3. This part of the flow is thus deflected to pass from the substantially radial direction to the direction according to the arrows F2.
- the air flow which enters the cavity 2 through the orifice 16 located at the foot of the blade, along the arrow F1 is divided into a radial flow moving in the central area comprising the bridges 12 and in a tangential flow moving in the area of the trailing edge comprising the bridges 13 of smaller section.
- the radial air flow is evacuated through the orifice 17 provided in the cap 10 of the blade, while the tangential air flow is evacuated through the orifices 15 of the trailing edge which open either on the lower surface of the edge of leakage, either on the edge of the latter as shown in Figure 2.
- the size and spacing of the bridges 12 of the first zone limit the pressure drops and avoid the entry of hot gases through the opening 17 of the cap 10.
- FIGS 3, 4 and 5 there is shown the cap 10 of the blade which has flanges 18 defining with the upper face of the blade a groove 19 in which is engaged by sliding a plate 20 provided with calibrated orifices 21 , 22.
- the plate 20, after positioning in the groove 19, can be fixed for example by soldering (shown in bold lines in Figure 4).
- the diameter of the orifices 21, 22 can be optimized at will. Optimization of the diameter of the orifices 21 and 22, which are dusting holes, will be carried out by successive approaches during the tests, by changing the insert 20. For example, in a cooled blade where the cooling holes drilled in the leading edge and the trailing edge would have a diameter of 0.5 mm, it was found that a diameter of 1 mm was suitable for the orifices 21 and 22. It is even possible to completely seal the orifices 21 and 22 of the upstream 1 or downstream 2 cavities, or both, which makes it possible to increase the pressures in the cavities and to increase the flow rate near the leading edge or towards the trailing edge.
