Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the specific field of turbomachinery and it is more particularly interested in the problem posed by the mounting of a metal bottom of the combustion chamber of a turbomachine on walls made of CMC type composite material (ceramic matrix composite) from this room.
  • the turbine high pressure including its inlet distributor (HPT nozzle), the system the combustion chamber as well as the casing (also called casing) of this chamber are made of metallic type materials.
  • HPT nozzle inlet distributor
  • the system the combustion chamber as well as the casing (also called casing) of this chamber are made of metallic type materials.
  • the use of a chamber entirely metallic proves from a thermal point of view totally unsuitable and it must be resorted to a chamber made from high composite materials CMC type temperature.
  • these materials being very expensive and of low resistance to high mechanical stress, their use is most often limited to the combustion chamber itself and more particularly to its only axial walls, the inlet distributor of the high pressure turbine, the injection system and the remaining casing then produced more conventionally in metallic materials.
  • Gold, metallic materials and composite materials have very different coefficients of thermal expansion. This results in particularly acute problems, particularly with regard to the connection between composite material walls of the combustion chamber and the chamber bottom metallic.
  • the present invention overcomes these drawbacks by proposing an assembly of metal chamber bottom capable of absorbing induced displacements by the differences in the expansion coefficients between this metallic background and the composite walls of the combustion chamber.
  • An object of the invention is also to produce an assembly having good dynamic strength and good sealing.
  • annular combustion chamber comprising external and internal axial walls of composite material and a chamber bottom of metallic material, said chamber bottom being held in position on said external external and internal walls by fixing means, characterized in that said fixing means pass through annular cavities intended to receive cylindrical end portions of said external and internal axial walls and created between peripheral edges of said chamber bottom and backward facing parts facing them, a determined clearance J between said peripheral edges and the facing faces of said external and internal axial walls being provided so as to allow in operation a free radial expansion of said chamber bottom relative to said axial walls.
  • the fixing means consist of a plurality of bolts, of preferably with captive nut.
  • the external and internal axial walls are provided with a plurality of holes intended to cooperate with said fixing means once these mounted on said chamber bottom.
  • this chamber bottom can further include means for sealing between said bottom of chamber and said axial walls.
  • These sealing means include a seal circular type "lamellae" mounted in a circular groove of said bottom metal chamber and intended to ensure support on said axial wall of the combustion chamber opposite.
  • said circular joint "to slats” has in its downstream part a spoiler intended to provide support O-ring on said axial wall opposite the combustion chamber. He must be segmented and it is kept in abutment against said axial wall by means of a elastic element fixed on said metal chamber bottom. This elastic element consists of a leaf spring.
  • the chamber bottom can integrate in addition internal and external metallic material caps which extend upstream its peripheral edges and allow better control of the dynamic outfit.
  • the fairing (or cap) outer 34 extending upstream (relative to the flow F) the outer wall 26 of the combustion chamber and the internal fairing (or cap) 36 extending upstream (relative to flow F) the internal wall 28 of the combustion are directly integrated into the bottom of the chamber 30 and are therefore made of metallic material (thereby simplifying the general shape of the upstream ends of the combustion chamber which can therefore be formed by simple cylindrical parts).
  • a configuration with a fairing (single monobloc cap in toric shape) connecting the two ends upstream walls of the combustion chamber (and then provided with openings for the passage of the injection nozzles 22) is also possible.
  • the metallic annular bottom 30 of the combustion which has a coefficient of thermal expansion very different from that of external axial 26 and internal 28 walls made of composite material of the combustion, is kept in position on the upstream cylindrical ends of the axial walls by a plurality of fixing means 38, 40 regularly distributed around the longitudinal axis 10.
  • These fixing means pass through annular cavities 42, 44, intended to receive the cylindrical end portions of these axial walls, and created between peripheral edges of the chamber bottom 30 and opposite parts 46, 48 extending the caps 34, 36 towards downstream.
  • the fixing means 38, 40 are formed by a plurality of metal bolts of the captive nut type, i.e. each comprising a screw 38a, a nut 38b and a stop cage 38c fixed on the chamber bottom 30 (advantageously by spot welding) and ensuring rotation lock of the nut.
  • the tightening when mounting
  • the screw is obtained directly by simply screwing in the screw without the need for the use of special tools for immobilizing the nut in rotation (pliers for example), this being obtained very simply by the single cage Stop.
  • disassembly can also be done very simply so reverse by simply loosening the screw.
  • a clearance J between the internal faces of the external axial 28 and internal 26 walls and the peripheral edges opposite the chamber bottom 30 is calculated so as to allow in operation a free expansion of the metal cap relative to these axial walls of composite material .
  • This play in fact makes it possible to absorb the expansions of the chamber bottom without damaging the axial composite walls which move little radially.
  • the system of double centering of the external 26 and internal 28 walls in the corresponding cavities 42, 44 makes it possible to ensure a relative tightness of the chamber bottom while also serving for the axial maintenance during mounting (cold) as during the flight phases. at cruising speed (hot).
  • these are provided with holes 26a, 28b intended to receive sockets 38d, 40d crossed by the screw axes of the fixing means 38, 40 previously mounted on the chamber bottom, the permanent contact of the screws with the cap 34, 36 limiting the risk of losing the tightening torque during this assembly.
  • These sockets on which the axial walls 26, 28 will slide when the bottom expands chamber 30 further promote the centering and support of these axial walls.
  • FIG. 2 generally illustrates a second embodiment example the detail of which is shown in Figure 2a and in which to ensure better sealing between the external axial wall 26 or internal wall 28 and the chamber bottom 30, a “lamellar” type circular seal 50, 52 is mounted in a circular groove 54, 56 made at the end of the downstream return part 46, 48 of the cap external 34 or internal 36.
  • This seal comprises in its downstream part a spoiler 58, 60 intended to ensure an O-ring support on the opposite axial wall 26, 28 of the combustion chamber.
  • the seal is pressed against the wall by an element elastic 62, 64, preferably a leaf spring, and held in position by a plurality of pins 66, 68 integral with the downstream end of the cap.
