Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Turbinenrotorschaufel einer Gasturbine mit einem in radialer Richtung (bezogen auf eine Triebwerksachse der Gasturbine) bzw. in Längsrichtung der Schaufel ausgebildeten Schaufelprofil sowie mit einer Schaufelspitze. Als Schaufelspitze wird im Zusammenhang mit der vorliegenden Erfindung das radial außenliegende Ende der Turbinenrotorschaufel bezeichnet.The invention relates to a turbine rotor blade of a gas turbine with a blade profile designed in the radial direction (based on an engine axis of the gas turbine) or in the longitudinal direction of the blade, and with a blade tip. In connection with the present invention, the blade tip is the radially outer end of the turbine rotor blade.
Die Erfindung betrifft weiterhin nicht nur Rotorschaufeln, sondern auch Statorschaufeln, wobei die Schaufelspitze bei Statorschaufeln als radial innenliegendes Ende der Schaufel definiert ist.The invention further relates not only to rotor blades, but also to stator blades, the blade tip in stator blades being defined as the radially inner end of the blade.
Im Stand der Technik ist es bekannt, dass am Radialspalt zwischen den Rotorschaufeln und einem Gehäuse bzw. zwischen Statorschaufeln und einer Nabe ein durch den Druckunterschied von der Schaufeldruckseite zur Schaufelsaugseite getriebener Leckagemassenstrom entsteht. Dabei sind Lösungen vorgeschlagen worden, die diesen Leckagemassenstrom verringern und/oder den negativen Einfluss eines sich bildenden Schaufelspitzenwirbels auf die Turbinenaerodynamik verringern.It is known in the prior art that a leakage mass flow driven by the pressure difference from the blade pressure side to the blade suction side occurs at the radial gap between the rotor blades and a housing or between stator blades and a hub. Solutions have been proposed which reduce this leakage mass flow and / or reduce the negative influence of a vane tip vortex which forms on the turbine aerodynamics.
Zur Verbesserung der Strömung über die Schaufelspitzen der Rotoren werden hauptsächlich umlaufende Dichtkanten (Squealer), teils aber auch Überhänge an der Schaufelspitze (Wingletausführungen) vorgesehen. Squealerkonstruktionen (
Die aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Lösungen bringen zum einen nur geringe aerodynamische Vorteile, zum anderen sind die Überhänge (Winglets) so dimensioniert, dass sie insbesondere von der dünnen Schaufelhinterkante schlecht getragen werden können und die mechanische Festigkeit der Schaufel beeinträchtigen.The solutions known from the prior art on the one hand bring only slight aerodynamic advantages, on the other hand the overhangs (winglets) are dimensioned in such a way that that they can be carried particularly poorly by the thin rear edge of the blade and impair the mechanical strength of the blade.
Aus der
Die
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Turbinenrotorschaufel der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, welche bei einfachem Aufbau und einfacher, kostengünstiger Herstellbarkeit eine aus aerodynamischer und thermaler Sicht optimale Schaufelspitzenumströmung ermöglicht und eine gute Bauteilfestigkeit und eine hohe Lebensdauer aufweist.The invention has for its object to provide a turbine rotor blade of the type mentioned which, with a simple structure and simple, inexpensive manufacturability, enables optimum flow around the blade tip from an aerodynamic and thermal point of view and has good component strength and a long service life.
Erfindungsgemäß wird die Aufgabe durch die Merkmalskombination des Anspruchs 1 gelöst, die Unteransprüche zeigen weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung.According to the invention the object is achieved by the combination of features of
Erfindungsgemäß ist somit vorgesehen, dass die Schaufelspitze zumindest an ihrer Saugseite, ausgehend von einem Staupunkt an der Schaufelvorderkante bis zu einem Schnittpunkt der saugseitigen Profillinie der Schaufel mit einem Hinterkantenkreis einen Überhang (Winglet) aufweist. Der Überhang weist am Staupunkt und am Schnittpunkt mit dem Hinterkantenkreis im Wesentlichen einen Wert von Null auf und erreicht seinen Maximalwert bei etwa 40 % der Lauflänge der saugseitigen Profillinie.
Erfindungsgemäß ist somit eine strömungsoptimierte und hinsichtlich der Festigkeit der Schaufel vorteilhafte Konstruktion geschaffen, bei welcher die aerodynamischen Verluste minimiert werden.It is thus provided according to the invention that the blade tip has an overhang (winglet) at least on its suction side, starting from a stagnation point on the blade leading edge to an intersection of the suction-side profile line of the blade with a trailing edge circle. The overhang points on The stagnation point and at the point of intersection with the trailing edge circle essentially has a value of zero and reaches its maximum value at approximately 40% of the running length of the suction-side profile line.
According to the invention, a flow-optimized construction which is advantageous with regard to the strength of the blade is thus created, in which the aerodynamic losses are minimized.
Besonders günstig ist es, wenn die Größe des saugseitigen Überhangs (senkrechter Abstand von der saugseitigen Profillinie) in etwa 45% des Durchmessers des maximal in das Schaufelprofil einbeschreibbaren Kreises Tmax erreicht.It is particularly favorable if the size of the suction-side overhang (vertical distance from the suction-side profile line) reaches approximately 45% of the diameter of the maximum circle T max that can be written into the blade profile.
In besonders günstiger Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Schaufel ist weiterhin vorgesehen, dass die Schaufelspitze an ihrer Druckseite, ausgehend von einem Staupunkt an der Schaufelvorderkante bis zu einem Schnittpunkt der druckseitigen Profillinie der Schaufel mit dem Hinterkantenkreis, ebenfalls einen Überhang (Winglet) aufweist, welcher am Staupunkt und am Schnittpunkt im Wesentlichen Null beträgt und welcher einen Maximalwert bei etwa einer Lauflänge zwischen 20 % und 60 % der Gesamtlauflänge der druckseitigen Profillinie aufweist.In a particularly favorable embodiment of the blade according to the invention, it is further provided that the blade tip also has an overhang (winglet) on its pressure side, starting from a stagnation point on the blade leading edge to an intersection of the pressure-side profile line of the blade with the trailing edge circle, which at the stagnation point and is essentially zero at the intersection and which has a maximum value at approximately a run length of between 20% and 60% of the total run length of the pressure-side profile line.
Zur Verbesserung der Strömung und zur weiteren Verminderung des Leckagemassenstroms kann es weiterhin günstig sein, dass am radial äußeren Randbereich der Schaufel (bei einer Rotorschaufel) bzw. am radial inneren Randbereich bei einer Statorschaufel eine umlaufende Dichtkante ausgebildet ist. Diese kann beispielsweise einen im Wesentlichen rechteckigen Querschnitt haben, so dass sich im mittleren Bereich der Schaufeispitze eine Vertiefung/Kavität ausbildet.To improve the flow and to further reduce the leakage mass flow, it can furthermore be favorable that a circumferential sealing edge is formed on the radially outer edge region of the blade (in the case of a rotor blade) or on the radially inner edge region in the case of a stator blade. This can have a substantially rectangular cross section, for example, so that a depression / cavity is formed in the central region of the tip of the ice bucket.
Die Dichtkante kann weiterhin bevorzugterweise einen Bereich mit einer reduzierten Höhe bzw. einen Bereich mit einer Höhe von Null aufweisen, welcher im Bereich des saugseitigen Überhangs zwischen einer Lauflänge der saugseitigen Profillinie von 10 % bis 30 % vorgesehen ist. Somit wird eine Öffnung ausgebildet, durch welche eine Zuströmung der gehäusenahen Grenzschicht auf die Schaufelspitze erfolgen kann.The sealing edge can furthermore preferably have an area with a reduced height or an area with a height of zero, which is provided in the area of the suction-side overhang between a running length of the suction-side profile line of 10% to 30%. An opening is thus formed through which the boundary layer near the housing can flow to the blade tip.
Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, die Höhe sowie die Breite der Dichtkante in Abhängigkeit von einem Schaufelspitzenspalt zu bemessen. Die radiale Höhe kann dabei zwischen der Hälfte des Schaufelspitzenspalts und dem dreifachen Schaufelspitzenspalt betragen. Hinsichtlich der Breite der Dichtkante kann diese zwischen dem dreifachen Schaufelspitzenspalt und dem sechsfachen Schaufelspitzenspalt ausgebildet sein.It is particularly advantageous to dimension the height and the width of the sealing edge as a function of a blade tip gap. The radial height can be between half of the blade tip gap and three times the blade tip gap. With regard to the width of the sealing edge, this can be formed between the triple blade tip gap and the sixfold blade tip gap.
Hinsichtlich der Höhe des Überhangs (Winglets) in radialer Richtung kann es besonders günstig sein, wenn diese Höhe maximal 10 % der radialen Länge des Schaufelprofils beträgt. Ein bevorzugter Wert liegt bei 5 %. Dies bedeutet, dass ca. 90 % bis 95 % des Schaufelprofils unverändert ausgebildet ist und dass lediglich die äußeren 10 bzw. 5 % der Länge des Schaufelprofils mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Überhang bzw. Winglet versehen ist.With regard to the height of the overhang (winglets) in the radial direction, it can be particularly favorable if this height is at most 10% of the radial length of the blade profile. A preferred value is 5%. This means that approximately 90% to 95% of the blade profile is unchanged and that only the outer 10 or 5% of the length of the blade profile is provided with the overhang or winglet according to the invention.
Um die Strömungsverhältnisse weiter zu optimieren, kann es günstig sein, den Übergang vom Schaufelprofil zu dem Überhang (Winglet) abgerundet auszubilden.In order to further optimize the flow conditions, it can be advantageous to round off the transition from the blade profile to the overhang (winglet).
Weiterhin kann es vorteilhaft sein, den Kantenbereich des Überhangs (Winglets) am radialen Ende mit einem Winkel zu versehen. Dieser Winkel ist in einer Ebene definiert die durch einen radialen Vektor von der Dichtkante zur Triebwerksachse und einem Vektor normal zur Dichtkante aufgespannt wird. Der Winkel bildet sich dann zwischen einer Tangente an der äußeren Dichtkantenfläche und dem Radialenvektor. Dabei ist es besonders günstig, wenn die Tangente an der druckseitigen Dichtkante der Schaufel in einem Winkel zwischen 10° und 50° von der Schaufel weg gerichtet und an der saugseitigen Dichtkante in einem Winkel von 10° bis 50° bei einer Lauflänge 0,1≤s≤0,3 zur Schaufel hin gerichtet und bei einer Lauflänge zwischen 0,4≤s≤1 in einem Winkel zwischen 10° und 50° von der Schaufel weg gerichtet ausgebildet ist.Furthermore, it can be advantageous to provide the edge region of the overhang (winglets) with an angle at the radial end. This angle is defined in a plane that is spanned by a radial vector from the sealing edge to the engine axis and a vector normal to the sealing edge. The angle then forms between a tangent to the outer sealing edge surface and the radial vector. It is Particularly favorable if the tangent on the pressure-side sealing edge of the blade is directed away from the blade at an angle between 10 ° and 50 ° and on the suction-side sealing edge at an angle of 10 ° to 50 ° with a barrel length of 0.1≤s≤0 , 3 is directed towards the blade and is designed with a barrel length between 0.4≤s≤1 at an angle between 10 ° and 50 ° away from the blade.
Die erfindungsgemäße Wingletkonstruktion hat die Eigenschaft, die Überströmung der Turbinenschaufelspitzen so zu verbessern, dass der Leckagemassenstrom über die Schaufelspitze verringert wird (Wirkungsgradverbesserung im Rotor) und gleichzeitig die Abströmung im Bereich der Rotorschaufelspitze hinsichtlich des Abströmwinkels vergleichmäßigt wird (Wirkungsgradverbesserung in den stromab liegenden Schaufelreihen). Diese Vorteile werden durch folgende strömungsmechanische Effekte erreicht:
- Durch die relative schnelle Verkleinerung des großen saugseitigen Überhangs im Bereich (b) entsteht eine konkave Schaufelspitzenform. Das führt dazu, dass der Schaufelspitzenwirbel stromab einen immer größeren Abstand zur Schaufel gewinnt.
- Als Folge wird der Schaufelspitzenwirbel von der saugseitigen Schaufelumströmung entkoppelt und interagiert nicht oder nur sehr wenig mit dem sich in diesem Bereich entwickelnden Sekundärströmungswirbel. Diese Entkopplung trägt maßgeblich zur Wirkungsgradverbesserung der Schaufelspitzenströmung durch das Winglet bei.
- Der Überhang des Winglets reduziert den treibenden Druckgradienten zwischen Druckseite und Saugseite und verringert damit den Leckagemassenstrom.
- Die Öffnung der umlaufenden Dichtkante des Winglets sorgt für eine Einströmung von relativ kalter gehäusenaher Luft in die Kavität des Winglets. Die Trajektorie dieser Zuströmung (Stromlinienkrümmung) bewirkt einen Druckgradienten in Richtung Druckseite der Schaufel. Hierdurch wird eine weitere Reduktion des Leckagemassenstromes erzielt. Weiterhin verringert die aufströmende relativ kalte Luft die Kühlungsanforderungen für das Winglet.
- Die Form (Tangentenwinkel) der umlaufenden bzw. unterbrochenen Dichtkante ist in Abhängigkeit der Profillauflänge so gestaltet, dass an gewünschten Positionen Strömungsablösungen hervorgerufen werden (z.B. Druckseite) und an anderen Positionen (z.B. Saugseite) Strömungsablösungen vermieden werden.
- The relatively quick reduction of the large suction-side overhang in area (b) creates a concave blade tip shape. As a result, the blade tip vortex gets an ever greater distance from the blade downstream.
- As a result, the blade tip vortex is decoupled from the suction flow around the blade and does not interact or only interacts very little with the secondary flow vortex developing in this area. This decoupling contributes significantly to the efficiency improvement of the blade tip flow through the winglet.
- The overhang of the winglet reduces the driving pressure gradient between the pressure side and the suction side and thus reduces the leakage mass flow.
- The opening of the circumferential sealing edge of the winglet ensures that relatively cold air near the housing flows into the winglet's cavity. The trajectory of this inflow (streamline curvature) causes a pressure gradient in the direction of the pressure side of the blade. This results in a further reduction in the leakage mass flow. Furthermore, the relatively cold air flowing in reduces the cooling requirements for the winglet.
- The shape (tangent angle) of the circumferential or interrupted sealing edge is designed depending on the length of the profile so that flow separations are caused at desired positions (e.g. pressure side) and flow separations are avoided at other positions (eg suction side).

Die Rotorschaufelspitze weist, wie in den Fig. gezeigt, folgende bevorzugte konstruktive Eigenschaften auf, um die Auswirkung der Rotorspitzenspaltleckageströmung auf den Turbinenwirkungsgrad so klein wie möglich zu gestalten:
- Einen relativ kleinen, aber signifikanten druckseitigen Überhang Tw(s), der, wie in
Fig. 9 und 11 gezeigt, zwischen 0≤s≤0,2 sehr klein ist, von s=0,2 bis s=0,6 bis aufsein Maximum von 15% Tmax anwächst und schließlich von s=0,6 bis zur Schaufelhinterkante abfällt, sodass der druckseitige Überhang bei s=1 tangential an den Hinterkantenkreis übergeht. Eine günstige Gestaltung des druckseitigen Überhanges kann mittels der gestrichelten Kurven inFig. 11 eingegrenzt werden. - Eine Öffnung, zumindest aber eine Verringerung der Höhe d der umlaufenden Dichtkante im vorderen Bereich des saugseitigen Überhangs zwischen ca. s=0,1 und s=0,3, wie in
Fig. 12 und 13 gezeigt. - Eine mittels des Rotorschaufelspitzenspaltes (nominal im Normalbetrieb) t definierte Höhe d der umlaufenden bzw. unterbrochenen Dichtkante auf dem Winglet von ca. 0,5t≤d≤3t (siehe
Fig. 7 ). - Eine mittels des Rotorschaufelspitzenspaltes t definierte Breite b der umlaufenden bzw. unterbrochenen Dichtkante auf dem Winglet von ca. 3t≤b≤6t (siehe
Fig. 7 ). - Eine Höhe h des Winglets von nicht
mehr als 10 % der mittleren Höhe des Rotorschaufelprofiles. In besonders günstiger Ausführung sollte h∼5% der mittleren Höhe des Rotorschaufelprofiles betragen (sieheFig. 7 ). Dabei ist h als der radiale Abstand der Wingletspitze von dem radialen Schaufelprofilschnitt anzusehen, bei dem die Aufweitung des Schaufelprofils in das Winglet deutlich beginnt. - Einen stetigen, mit angemessenen Radien R (bzw. geeigneten Kurvenformen) abgerundeten, sanften Übergang zwischen dem Wingletüberhang und dem Schaufelprofil (siehe
Fig. 7 ). - Einen von der Profillauflänge s abhängigen, beispielhaft mittels der Schaufelschnitte A:A, B:B und C:C in
Fig. 7 definierten Winkel β zwischen der Tangente an der äußeren Dichtkante 35und dem Radialenvektor 36, sodass die Tangente an der Druckseite stets von der Schaufel mit einem Winkel zwischen 10°≤βDS≤50° weg zeigt und die Tangente an 0,1≤s≤0,3 zu der Schaufel mit einem Winkel zwischen 10°≤βSS≤50° hin zeigt, jedoch zwischen 0,4≤s≤1 stets mit einemder Saugseite zwischen Winkel von 10°≤βSS≤50° von der Schaufel weg zeigt.
- A relatively small but significant overhang T w (s) on the pressure side, which, as in
Fig. 9 and11 shown, is very small between 0≤s≤0.2, increases from s = 0.2 to s = 0.6 to its maximum of 15% T max and finally falls from s = 0.6 to the trailing edge of the blade, so that the overhang on the pressure side at s = 1 tangential passes to the trailing edge circle. A favorable design of the overhang on the pressure side can be shown by means of the dashed curves inFig. 11 be narrowed down. - An opening, or at least a reduction in the height d of the circumferential sealing edge in the front region of the suction-side overhang between approximately s = 0.1 and s = 0.3, as in
12 and 13 shown. - A height d of the circumferential or interrupted sealing edge on the winglet defined by means of the rotor blade tip gap (nominally in normal operation) t of approx. 0.5t≤d≤3t (see
Fig. 7 ). - A width b of the circumferential or interrupted sealing edge on the winglet defined by means of the rotor blade tip gap t of approx. 3t≤b≤6t (see
Fig. 7 ). - A height h of the winglet of no more than 10% of the average height of the rotor blade profile. In a particularly favorable version, h∼5% of the average height of the rotor blade profile should be (see
Fig. 7 ). Here, h is to be regarded as the radial distance of the winglet tip from the radial blade profile section, at which the expansion of the blade profile into the winglet clearly begins. - A smooth, smooth transition between the winglet overhang and the blade profile, rounded with appropriate radii R (or suitable curve shapes) (see
Fig. 7 ). - One dependent on the profile run length s, for example by means of the blade cuts A: A, B: B and C: C in
Fig. 7 Defined angle β between the tangent to theouter sealing edge 35 and theradial vector 36, so that the tangent on the pressure side always points away from the blade with an angle between 10 ° β β DS 50 50 ° and the tangent on the suction side between 0.1 ≤s≤0.3 towards the blade with an angle between 10 ° ≤β SS ≤50 °, but always between 0.4≤s≤1 with an angle of 10 ° ≤β SS ≤50 ° away from the blade shows.
