Definitions

  • the invention relates to a compressor housing structure in the region of an axially flowed through Blade ring, with a plurality of uniformly distributed over the housing periphery, to the blade tips open towards and at least approximately axially extending grooves, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a compressor housing structure of this type is known for example from DE 35 21 1 798 C2 known and has the primary task, with increasing throttling in partial load or full load raise the pumping limit to allow safe operation without pumps or to allow an increase in the available work area.
  • the grooves act as recirculation channels for high pressure accumulated air in the air External area of the blade ring without recirculation option to "rotating stall" and pumps would lead.
  • the upstream, front groove ends upstream of the blade tip entry edges see dimension A in Figures 2, 8, 9 and 10
  • the rear groove ends lie in the radial plane of the blade tip exit edges or rather in front of this radial plane.
  • Figure 4 of this patent is provided in to arrange straight grooves in the circumferential direction inclined so that the air inlet their downstream ends is facilitated (see also claim 2).
  • EP 0 497 574 B1 protects a fan case treatment which is arranged above the blade tips of a low-pressure compressor.
  • This structure includes axially spaced inlet and outlet passages (34, 36) and inlet and outlet ports, respectively (56,58) and vanes (38,66) in the connecting passages between Inlet and outlet.
  • the recirculation air entering the structure with significant circumferential component is deflected by the vanes so that they pass through the outlet in predominantly axial direction is returned to the main flow, i. largely without Circumferential component. Without this change or reduction of the perimeter component would hit the air with counter-rotation on the blade tips, i.
  • the object of the invention is a compressor housing structure which is based on the principle of air or gas recirculation and at simple, inexpensive construction a significant increase in the surge limit of a Compressor and thus a noticeable increase in his work area by fluidic Optimization possible.
  • the groove cross sections so inclined that the entry of the recirculation air is facilitated, the Inclination from the opening to the groove bottom a circumferential component in the direction of rotation, i.e. has in the direction of movement of the blade tips.
  • the inclination is reversed, so that the recirculation air exiting here in the main flow with a direct spin on the rotating blade tips hits what the flow significantly improved and reduced losses. Also the tendency to flow separation is noticeably reduced.
  • the compressor housing structure 1 has a plurality of evenly over the circumference of the housing distributed grooves 2, which extends from an upstream radial plane Eo up to a downstream radial plane egg extend.
  • an upstream radial plane Eo up to a downstream radial plane egg extend In the right, lower part of Figure 1 is to detect the tip 8 of a blade of a blade ring 7, wherein accordingly the flow direction (large white arrow) the blade tip leading edge 9 left, the Vane tip exit edge 10 is right.
  • the direction of movement D of the blade tip 8 is indicated by a cross in a circle, the peripheral component of the corresponding Rotational motion should therefore point to the back starting from the plane of the drawing.
  • Radial plane Eo i. the front end of the groove lies clearly upstream of the blade tip leading edge 9, the radial plane Ei, i.
  • each groove 2 is according to the invention from its front, upstream to its rear, continuously twisted (twisted) downstream end, the drill axis a imaginary, axial straight line in the annular space contour R is.
  • the annular space contour R is in the groove area usually circular cylindrical, in rare cases, it can be appropriate slightly taper or widen a circular cone.
  • the opening 3 of each groove thus has an at least largely axial center line / axis of symmetry.
  • the eye-catching, mirror-symmetrical and bell-like section line in Figure 1 results from the Section of a radial-axial plane with the spatially twisted groove contour.
  • the dashed Groove contour, in particular the groove bottom 6, right above the "bell line” is behind the plane of the drawing, whereas the dash-dotted groove contour on the left above the "bell line” lies in front of the drawing plane.
  • At the highest point of the "bell line” lies the middle the Nutgrundes 6 exactly in the plane of the drawing, as well as the imaginary center line of the corresponding groove cross-section.
  • the opening 3 of each groove 2 may be in its axially middle Be covered area by an annular circumferential ridge 11, the inner diameter aligned with the annular space contour R. This can have advantages in the sense of lesser Friction, turbulence, etc. result.
  • FIG. 2 corresponds to a radial section / cross section according to the course A-A in FIG. 1.
  • the blade tip 8 can be seen with its direction of movement D (arrow to the left) and with its leading edge 9 and its trailing edge 10 short distance above the blade tip contour is the annular space contour R as a circular arc line recognizable.
  • the vertical, dot-dashed and unspecified axis through the point S corresponds to the radial direction, starting from the blade ring center.
  • the laterally inclined axes M, Mi and Mo correspond to imaginary central axes of Nutquerroughe at axially different locations of the groove length.
  • the central axes M, Mi, Mo all groove cross sections under different Inclination angles ⁇ , ⁇ i, ⁇ o intersect the annular space contour in an axial straight line, so that S is not just an intersection, but a straight, axial intersection and at the same time the axis of symmetry of the opening 3 of the groove 2. S is therefore also the imaginary Center of twisting / twisting.
  • the path of the recirculation flow through the groove 2 is also indicated here with small white arrows.
  • the flow entry at the rear Nutende takes place approximately at the angle ⁇ i with a peripheral component in the direction of movement the blade tips 8.
  • the flow outlet at the front groove end is about at the angle ⁇ o in the sense of a constant spin with the blade rotation.
  • the groove depth can vary over the axial Nuterstreckung, in particular a reduction the depth to the two groove ends is conceivable.
  • the exact definition of Groove geometries including inclination angles are likely to require appropriate Calculations and experiments.
  • FIG. 2 only one groove 2 is shown for the sake of clarity. Actually the grooves are relatively close in the circumferential direction, the remaining wall thicknesses between the grooves may be smaller than the clear distance between the side walls the grooves. In Figure 2 would therefore be real about 4 to 5 grooves next to each other recognizable be.
