- the compressor With the aid of the drive device 4, the compressor is operated at a certain speed. While the speed remains constant, the outlet opening of the compressor is successively reduced, as a result of which the mass flow is reduced and the pressure built up increases.

- the proposed method can use pairs of values for two consecutive operating points in the various configurations for the early detection of compressor pumps in order to determine a local curve slope .
- this event is interpreted as a preliminary stage for compressor pumping. If there is another sign change in the following (cf., local maximum 43 in Fig. 3 ), the last operating point set characterizes the last stable operating point before reaching the surge limit 42.
- the method provides for the issuing of a corresponding recommendation to abort the throttling process in order to prevent the surge limit from being exceeded.
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zum Bestimmen eines Indikators für eine Vorhersage einer Instabilität in einem Verdichter sowie die Verwendung.The invention relates to a method and a device for determining an indicator for predicting an instability in a compressor, and to the use.
Thermische Turbomaschinen können als Axial- oder Radialverdichter ausgeführt sein.Thermal turbo machines can be designed as axial or radial compressors.
Beispielsweise repräsentieren Axialverdichter eine zentrale Komponente in Flugtriebwerken. Das Betriebsverhalten des Verdichters bei dieser oder anderen Bauformen ist schwierig zu prognostizieren. Daher werden die Leistungsdaten von neu entwickelten Verdichtern auf einem Prüfstand vermessen und anschließend in ein Kennfeld eingetragen. Wichtiger Bestandteil des Kennfeldes ist die sogenannte Pumpgrenze. Bei einer Überschreitung der Pumpgrenze entstehen im Verdichter Instabilitäten, welche eine extrem hohe aerodynamische Belastung für den Verdichter darstellen und erhebliche strukturelle Schäden hervorrufen können. Um einen sicheren Betrieb des jeweiligen Verdichters gewährleisten zu können, ist die Kenntnis über die Pumpgrenze von großer Bedeutung. Auf dem Prüfstand ist die Pumpgrenze jedoch nur dann identifizierbar, wenn sie bereits überschritten wurde. Aus diesem Grund werden im Stand der Technik beim Bestimmen der Pumpgrenze kostspielige Totalausfälle der getesteten Verdichter in Kauf genommen.For example, axial compressors represent a central component in aircraft engines. The operating behavior of the compressor with this or other designs is difficult to predict. For this reason, the performance data of newly developed compressors are measured on a test bench and then entered in a map. The so-called surge limit is an important part of the map. If the surge limit is exceeded, instabilities arise in the compressor, which represent an extremely high aerodynamic load on the compressor and can cause considerable structural damage. In order to be able to guarantee safe operation of the respective compressor, knowledge of the surge limit is of great importance. However, the surge limit can only be identified on the test bench if it has already been exceeded. For this reason, costly total failures of the tested compressors are accepted in the prior art when determining the surge limit.

Mit Hilfe der vorgeschlagenen Technologien kann für thermische Turboarbeitsmaschine, also Axial- oder Radialverdichter, auf zuverlässige Weise ein Indikator bestimmt werden, der das mögliche zukünftige Auftreten einer Instabilität des Verdichters anzeigt. Bevor die Pumpgrenze erreicht wird, können Maßnahmen ergriffen werden, um eine Zerstörung des Verdichters beim Überschreiten der Pumpgrenze zu vermeiden, sei es auf einem Prüfstand zum Bestimmen einer Betriebsgrenze des Verdichters und / oder beim Einsatz und Betrieb eines solchen Verdichters beispielsweise in einem Turbolader oder einem Flugtriebwerk.With the help of the proposed technologies, an indicator can be determined in a reliable manner for thermal turbo working machines, that is to say axial or radial compressors, which indicates the possible future occurrence of an instability of the compressor. Before the surge limit is reached, measures can be taken to avoid destruction of the compressor when the surge limit is exceeded, be it on a test bench to determine an operating limit of the compressor and / or when using and operating such a compressor, for example in a turbocharger or a Aircraft engine.
Beim Durchlaufen der verschiedenen Betriebszustände wird der Verdichter angedrosselt, es werden also Betriebszustände nacheinander eingestellt, für die der Durchflussmassenstrom Stück für Stück abnimmt.When running through the various operating states, the compressor is throttled, i.e. operating states are set one after the other for which the flow mass flow decreases bit by bit.
Das Betreiben des Verdichters beim Messen des Kennwerts für den Durchflussmassenstrom und die Druckmesswerte kann bei ein und derselben Drehzahl für den oder die Rotoren (Rotorstufen) des Verdichters ausgeführt werden. Alternativ kann vorgesehen sein, beim Bestimmen des Indikators für die Instabilität des Verdichters Messungen bei unterschiedlichen Drehzahlen heranzuziehen.The operation of the compressor when measuring the characteristic value for the flow rate mass flow and the measured pressure values can be carried out at one and the same speed for the rotor or rotors (rotor stages) of the compressor. Alternatively, it can be provided when Determine the indicator of the instability of the compressor using measurements at different speeds.
Bei der Kenngröße "Schiefe" handelt es sich um das dritte statistische Moment, zu dessen Bestimmung die zeitaufgelösten Druckmesswerte herangezogen werden. Verfahren zum Bestimmen der Schiefe sind als solche bekannt.The parameter "skewness" is the third statistical moment, for the determination of which the time-resolved pressure measurement values are used. Methods for determining the skewness are known as such.
Das Erfassen der zeitaufgelösten Druckmesswerte kann dem Messen des stationären Drucks dienen.The acquisition of the time-resolved pressure measurement values can be used to measure the steady-state pressure.
Der Drucksensor kann in dem Gehäuse des Verdichters auf einer Innenwand des Gehäuses angeordnet werden. Der Drucksensor kann in dem Gehäuse des Verdichters auf der Innenwand des Gehäuses des Verdichters oberflächenbündig angeordnet sein. Bei dieser oder anderen Ausführungsformen können auch mehrere Drucksensoren vorgesehen sein, die im Gehäuse des Verdichters stromaufwärts benachbart zu der Eintrittsebene der Rotorstufe angeordnet sind, beispielsweise umlaufend beabstandet. Es kann vorgesehen sein, die mit den mehreren Drucksensoren erfassten zeitaufgelösten Druckmesswerte für das Bestimmen des Indikators für die Instabilität des Verdichters heranzuziehen.The pressure sensor can be arranged in the housing of the compressor on an inner wall of the housing. The pressure sensor can be arranged flush with the surface in the housing of the compressor on the inner wall of the housing of the compressor. In this or other embodiments, a plurality of pressure sensors can also be provided, which are arranged in the housing of the compressor upstream adjacent to the entry plane of the rotor stage, for example spaced circumferentially. Provision can be made to use the time-resolved pressure measurement values acquired with the plurality of pressure sensors to determine the indicator for the instability of the compressor.
Der Drucksensor kann in dem Gehäuse des Verdichters über Blattspitzen von Schaufeln der Rotorstufe angeordnet werden.The pressure sensor can be arranged in the housing of the compressor above blade tips of blades of the rotor stage.
Beim Erfassen der zeitaufgelösten Druckmesswerte beim Durchlaufen der Betriebszustände können mittels des Drucksensors Druckschwankungen zeitaufgelöst erfasst werden. Bei dieser oder anderer Ausführungsformen kann das Abtasten der zeitaufgelösten Druckmesswerte mit einer Frequenz zwischen etwa und 20 kHz und etwa 100 kHz erfolgen, sodass für den Fall, dass Druckschwankungen zeitaufgelöst gemessen werden, diese mit einer Frequenz von etwa 10 kHz bis etwa 50 kHz bestimmt werden.When recording the time-resolved pressure measurement values when running through the operating states, pressure fluctuations can be recorded in a time-resolved manner by means of the pressure sensor. In this or other embodiments, the sampling of the time-resolved pressure measurement values can take place at a frequency between approximately and 20 kHz and approximately 100 kHz, so that in the event that pressure fluctuations are measured in a time-resolved manner, they are determined with a frequency of approximately 10 kHz to approximately 50 kHz .
Der Vorzeichenwechsel des Kurvenanstiegs kann das Durchlaufen eines lokalen Maximums anzeigen. Wenn die Kurve der Schiefe über der Kenngröße für den Durchflussmassenstrom von größeren zu kleineren Werten der Kenngröße für den Durchflussmassenstrom durchläuft, bedeutet der Durchlauf des lokalen Maximums, dass der Kurvenanstieg von negativen Werten zu positiven Werten umschlägt.The change in sign of the curve rise can indicate that a local maximum has been passed. If the curve of the skewness over the characteristic variable for the flow mass flow runs through from larger to smaller values of the characteristic variable for the flow mass flow, the flow of the local maximum means that the curve rise changes from negative values to positive values.
Es kann ein weiterer Indikator für die Instabilität des Verdichters bestimmt werden, wenn für den Kurvenverlauf der Schiefe über der Kenngröße für den Durchflussmassenstrom hin zu niedrigeren Durchflussmassenströmen ein weiterer Vorzeichenwechsel des Kurvenanstiegs bestimmt wird. Die mehreren Vorzeichenwechsel können als getrennte Indikatoren unterschiedlicher Qualität für das mögliche oder erwartete Auftreten einer Instabilität des Verdichters bestimmt werden, beispielsweise hinsichtlich eines unterschiedlichen Abstands zur Pumpgrenze, der anhand der Differenz des Wertes der Kenngröße für den Durchflussmassenstrom für die Pumpgrenze einerseits und den Wert beim Vorzeichenwechsel andererseits bestimmbar ist.Another indicator for the instability of the compressor can be determined if a further change in sign of the curve increase is determined for the curve shape of the skew over the parameter for the flow mass flow towards lower flow mass flows. The multiple sign changes can be determined as separate indicators of different quality for the possible or expected occurrence of an instability of the compressor, for example with regard to a different distance to the surge limit, which is based on the difference between the value of the parameter for the flow mass flow for the surge limit on the one hand and the value when the sign change on the other hand is determinable.
Der Vorzeichenwechsel des Kurvenanstiegs kann das Durchlaufen eines lokalen Minimums anzeigen.The change in sign of the curve rise can indicate that a local minimum has been passed.
Als Kenngröße für den Durchflussmassenstrom können der Durchflusskoeffizient und / oder der reduzierte Massenstrom für die Betriebszustände bestimmt werden.The flow coefficient and / or the reduced mass flow for the operating states can be determined as a parameter for the flow mass flow.
Ausgehend vom Bestimmen des Indikators und / oder des weiteren Indikators kann ein Warnsignal als Frühwarnung für Verdichterinstabilität erzeugt und über eine Ausgabeeinrichtung ausgegeben werden. Werden der Indikator und / oder der weitere Indikator aus dem Kurvenverlauf bestimmt, dann zeigt ein jeweils zugeordnetes Warnsignal dem Nutzer optisch und / oder akustisch an, dass bei weiterer Minderung des Durchflussmassenstroms eine Verdichterinstabilität droht.Based on the determination of the indicator and / or the further indicator, a warning signal can be generated as an early warning of compressor instability and output via an output device. If the indicator and / or the further indicator are determined from the curve progression, a warning signal assigned in each case indicates to the user optically and / or acoustically that there is a risk of compressor instability in the event of a further reduction in the mass flow rate.
Der Verdichter kann in Betriebszuständen betrieben werden, die unterhalb einer Pumpgrenze des Verdichters liegen. Es ist vorgesehen, die Androsselung des Verdichters und des hierdurch bewirkten Durchlaufs der unterschiedlichen Betriebszustände abzubrechen, bevor die Pumpgrenze erreicht ist, worauf tatsächlich Instabilitäten auftreten. Beim Testen des Verdichters auf dem Prüfstand kann so ein Schaden am Verdichter vermieden werden, weshalb Mehrfachtests ermöglicht sind. Wird der Indikator für einen Verdichter bestimmt, der im Betrieb oder Einsatz ist, beispielsweise als Axialverdichter in einem Flugtriebwerk, werden mögliche Schäden vermieden, wodurch die Lebensdauer verlängert werden kann. Der Indikator und / oder der weitere Indikator zeigen ein mögliches Auftreten einer Instabilität des Verdichters an, bevor es hierzu tatsächlich kommt.The compressor can be operated in operating states that are below a surge limit of the compressor. Provision is made for the throttling of the compressor and the passage through the different operating states caused by this to be interrupted before the surge limit is reached, whereupon instabilities actually occur. When testing the compressor on the test bench, damage to the compressor can be avoided, which is why multiple tests are possible. If the indicator is determined for a compressor that is in operation or in use, for example as an axial compressor in an aircraft engine, possible damage is avoided, whereby the service life can be extended. The indicator and / or the further indicator indicate a possible occurrence of an instability of the compressor before this actually occurs.

In connection with the device of an indicator for determining an instability of a compressor, the preceding explanations regarding the configuration of the method apply mutatis mutandis.

Wird der Verlauf der Kurve 40 von größeren Durchflusskoeffizienten zu kleineren hin betrachtet, so ergibt sich, dass zunächst ein lokales Minimum 41 durchlaufen wird, bevor vor dem Erreichen der Pumpgrenze 42 ein lokales Maximum 43 durchlaufen wird, Beim Durchlaufen der lokalen Extrema 41, 43 findet ein Vorzeichenwechsel für den Anstieg der Kurve 40 statt, der jeweils als ein Indikator für das Hinlaufen zur Pumpgrenze 42 bestimmt werden kann. Hierbei bilden das lokale Maximum 43 sowie das lokale Minimum 41 jeweils Indikatoren unterschiedlicher Qualität, weil sie in Bezug auf den Durchflusskoeffizienten ϕ "unterschiedlich weit" von der Pumpgrenze 42 entfernt sind.If the course of the

Befindet sich der Axialverdichter auf einem Prüfstand (vgl.
Mithilfe Antriebseinrichtung 4 wird der Verdichter mit einer bestimmten Drehzahl betrieben. Während die Drehzahl konstant bleibt, wird sukzessive die Austrittsöffnung des Verdichters verkleinert, wodurch sich der Massenstrom verringert und der aufgebaute Druck steigt. Das sogenannte Androsseln des Verdichters kann nur solange durchgeführt werden, bis die Betriebsgrenze erreicht ist. D.h. es existiert bei jeder Drehzahl ein maximal möglicher Druckaufbau, ab dem es zu einem Zusammenbruch der stabilen Aerodynamik im Inneren des Verdichters kommt - der Verdichter gerät ins sogenannte "Pumpen".With the aid of the drive device 4, the compressor is operated at a certain speed. While the speed remains constant, the outlet opening of the compressor is successively reduced, as a result of which the mass flow is reduced and the pressure built up increases. The so-called throttling of the compressor can only be carried out until the operating limit is reached. This means that at every speed there is a maximum possible pressure build-up from which the stable aerodynamics inside the compressor collapse - the compressor starts to "pump".
Zur Erstellung des Kurvenverlaufs nach
Das vorgeschlagene Verfahren kann in den verschiedenen Ausgestaltungen zur Früherkennung von Verdichterpumpen jeweils Wertepaare für zwei aufeinanderfolgende Betriebspunkte heranziehen, um einen lokalen Kurvenanstieg zu bestimmen, Mit Hilfe des einfachen Differenzenquotienten lässt sich die Steigung des graphischen Verlaufs (Anstieg der Kurve) sequentiell zwischen den einzelnen Betriebspunkten bestimmen. Sobald während des Drosselprozesses das erste Mal ein Vorzeichenwechsel des Differenzenquotienten stattfindet (vgl. lokales Minimum 41 in
