Definitions

  • the invention relates to a structural assembly for a compressor of a turbomachine according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention is based on the object of providing a structural assembly for a compressor of a turbomachine which effectively realizes a housing structuring.
  • the invention then considers a structural assembly for a compressor of a turbomachine that has an impeller with a plurality of blades that extend radially in a flow path of the turbomachine.
  • a compressor housing is provided which forms a flow path boundary which delimits the flow path through the turbomachine radially on the outside.
  • the compressor housing has a housing structure adjacent to the impeller. Housing structuring structures the flow path boundary, i. H. the wall area of the compressor housing, which delimits the flow path, it being possible in principle to use any housing structures known in the prior art.
  • the compressor housing has a plurality of circumferential segments which extend in the circumferential direction. Only one or only some of the peripheral segments form a housing structure, while the other peripheral segments are designed without a housing structure.
  • a circumferential segment is a segment of the compressor housing which extends in the circumferential direction and which adjoins the flow path. The individual circumferential segments adjoin one another in the circumferential direction. At least one scope segment, but not all Circumferential segments form a housing structure, so that the compressor housing has variations with respect to the housing structure.
  • the invention effectively counteracts rotating detachment.
  • the variation of the housing structuring in the circumferential direction provided by the invention in such a way that only one or only some of the circumferential segments have a housing structuring has the effect that the coherence of the rotating demolition patterns that are formed is disturbed.
  • This counteracts a locally occurring flow separation at the respective blade tips.
  • the invention thus suppresses the formation of coherent separation processes at the blade tip and thus of rotor vibrations. This significantly increases the stable working range of the compressor and the turbomachine overall.
  • the compressor housing has an upper housing half and a lower housing half, each of which extends in the circumferential direction over a circumferential region of 180 °, and that the circumferential segment or the circumferential segments which form a housing structure are in the upper housing half of the Compressor housing are formed.
  • This aspect of the invention therefore provides for the housing to be structured only in one or more peripheral segments which are formed in the upper housing half of the compressor housing. This ensures safe and effective operation of the compressor in which the structural assembly is integrated. By avoiding a housing structuring in the lower housing half of the compressor housing, the risk is avoided that the housing structuring is blocked by ice, for which case there is an at least temporary loss of functionality.
  • the statement that the compressor housing has an upper housing half and a lower housing half is merely a geometric statement that does not say anything about the structure of the compressor housing of the housing half.
  • the upper half of the housing is the upper region of the compressor housing and the lower half of the housing is the lower region of the compressor housing. It can only be imaginary areas, the two areas being separated from one another by a horizontal plane.
  • the terms "upper” and “lower” take into account that the structural assembly and the compressor housing are in the gravitational field of the earth, which automatically results in a vertical direction is defined.
  • the upper housing half Starting from a vector that points downwards according to the gravitational field and defines the angle of 0 °, the upper housing half extends in an angular range between 90 ° and 270 ° and the lower housing half in an angular range between 270 and 90 °.
  • peripheral segments with the housing structure can have different housing structures, and of course an identical housing structure can also be provided.

  • peripheral segments have the same extension angle in the peripheral direction. However, this is not necessarily the case. In embodiments of the invention, it can be provided that the extent of the circumferential segments varies in the circumferential direction, that is to say the extent angle.
  • the sequence of the circumferential segments can furthermore be circumferentially symmetrical or circumferentially asymmetrical, whereby circumferential asymmetry means that apart from the angles 0 ° and 360 ° there are no angles at which the sequence of the circumferential segments is mapped onto itself during a rotation, i.e. leads to the same overall structuring.
  • the compressor housing has exactly two peripheral segments, an upper peripheral segment being formed in the upper housing half and a lower peripheral segment being formed in the lower housing half.
  • the housing structure is formed exclusively in the upper peripheral segment.
  • both circumferential segments each extend over a circumferential angle of 180 °.
  • the upper circumferential segment, which forms a housing structure extends over more or less than 180 ° in the circumferential direction, while the lower circumferential segment accordingly extends over less or more than 180 ° in the circumferential direction.
  • both circumferential segments each extend over a circumferential angle of 180 °
  • the two circumferential segments of the compressor housing are at least approximately designed as half cylinders.
  • the compressor housing is formed by a two-part housing which forms two parts which each extend over 180 ° in the circumferential direction.
  • a compressor housing is also drawn as a "split casing".
  • the compressor housing has two circumferential segments with a circumferential angle of 180 ° in each case, the division plane between the two parts of the compressor housing simultaneously the boundary between the two circumferential segments with and without Representing housing structuring.
  • two circumferential segments with a circumferential angle of 180 ° are formed in the case of compressor housings that are not divided into two.
