Definitions

  • the invention relates to a guide vane row for an axial turbomachine, in particular an adaptable vane row for controlling the mass flow of a turbine.
  • variable vane rows are often used to control mass flow and control controlled mass flow rates within the bladed flow path. This measure is used in most cases to regulate the flow through the machine in adaptation to different operating conditions. Adjustable guide blade rows therefore allow an enlargement of the operating range of a turbomachine. They are used, for example, in stationary gas and steam turbines for power generation, as well as in compressors and aircraft engines.
  • the vane row functions as a baffle or throttle as disclosed, for example, in WO 2005/054633.
  • a setting of the first blade row is known, which serves to control the thrust while maintaining the passage cross-section and the air mass flow, as shown for example in US 2003/0059291.
  • Known adjustable vane rows are distinguished according to the manner of geometric adjustment.
  • a first type of adjustable rows of vanes for example in WO 2005/054633, the individual vanes of an axial flow-through stage are radially along each one with respect to the axially positioned machine shaft rotated axis to effect a change in the staggering angle.
  • the adjustment of the vanes requires a mechanical device for each vane and a sufficiently wide radial gap on the housing and shaft to allow a non-contact rotation of the vane.
  • a second type of adjustable vane rows as disclosed for example in EP 808992, the blades of an axial turbine stage are each divided into two axially separated parts. To control the mass flow, a portion of each vane is displaced in the circumferential direction, this being realized for all the vanes by a single mechanical movement in the circumferential direction and by a single rotatable ring device.
  • This second type is mainly used in steam turbines.
  • the radial gap on the housing and shaft is smaller than in the first type.
  • the aerodynamic losses at the radial gap are correspondingly smaller. However, these losses increase due to the step-shaped blade profile caused by the movement of the blade parts on the ring device.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a guide blade row for an axial-type turbomachine, which provides control of the
  • An airfoil row for an axial-type turbomachine has a number of vanes each having a leading and a trailing edge, each one of which first, arranged upstream and a second, the first part arranged downstream part. Both parts extend over the entire, radial longitudinal extent of the blade, wherein the longitudinal direction of the blade corresponds essentially to the radial direction perpendicular to the shaft axis of the turbomachine.
  • the first part includes the leading edge of the blade and a portion of the pressure and suction sides of the blade. In this case, it extends, measured along the axial chord of the blade, over a larger area along the pressure side than along the suction side.
  • the first part is attached to the stationary inner casing of the turbomachine and therefore immovable.
  • the second part comprises the trailing edge of the blade and also a part of the pressure and suction side. He extends, according to the first part, over a smaller area along the pressure side than along the suction side.
  • the second part is attached to a ring on the inner housing, which is movable in the circumferential direction of the turbomachine.
  • the first part of each vane remains fixed, while the second part of each vane is movable by means of the ring in the circumferential direction between an initial position and an end position defined by contact with the adjacent vane.
  • the reverse case namely that the first part is movable and the second part is fixed, is the subject of this invention.
  • the assignment of the fixed and movable part has no relevance.
  • the ring with the second parts of the blades is circumferentially displaced relative to the initial position, so that a gap has opened between the two parts through which flows a part of the mass flow.
  • the mass flow then passes through this gap between the first part and the second part of each blade as well as through the original channel between the second part of each blade and the first part of the blade adjacent in the blade row.
  • the rotatable ring allows varying the width of this gap, the channel width of the original channel and thus also the distribution of the mass flow through the two channels.
  • the second part of each blade In an end position of the ring, that is at maximum displacement of the ring, the second part of each blade is in contact with the first Part of the blade in the vane row adjacent.
  • the gap between the first and second part is now open to the maximum and has expanded to the actual flow channel, since the original channel is now closed.
  • the entire mass flow now flows through this gap, and no mass flow passes through the original flow path between the second part of the blade and the first part of the adjacent blade.
  • the flow channel width represented by the narrowest cross-section of adjacent blades in the end position is smaller than the original channel width in the initial position.
  • the adjustment of the guide vane row thus makes it possible to regulate the flow cross-section of the mass flow in the manner of a baffle or a throttle valve.
  • the exit angle also varies from the guide row, but only slightly and in an aerodynamically advantageous manner, which is a significant advantage of the invention.
  • the mass flow flowing through the original channel between the second part of each blade and the first part of an adjacent blade at the initial position of the ring undergoes a deflection corresponding to the stagger angle of the blades.
  • the mass flow flowing between the first part and the second part of each blade upon displacement of the ring experiences a deflection which is larger in comparison, resulting in a slightly larger exit angle of the flow.
  • the first and second parts of each blade are inventively designed to aerodynamically form the equivalent of a single blade having a single overall aerodynamic smooth profile (i.e., a profile perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the blade) in the initial and final positions of the ring. Both parts are also designed to each have an aerodynamic smooth axial profile (i.e., a profile parallel to the shaft axis of the machine) when the ring is displaced as a single piece in the mass flow.
  • the gap formed between the first and second part of each blade also has an aerodynamic smooth profile. This makes it possible for the flow through the gap between the first and second part to experience no or at least minimal losses due to flow separation, since there are no abrupt profile changes or step-shaped profiles.
  • the avoidance of flow separation also has the advantage that the Rotor downstream of the guide vane row according to the invention may be made less robust compared to existing rotors, since this must withstand a less turbulent flow. This allows a cost saving in the turbomachine.
  • the first parts and the second parts of the vane are aerodynamically designed in that their axial profiles are aerodynamically smooth and their end regions, i. their with respect to the mass flow through the blade row front and rear edges are provided with curves.
  • the final shape of the curves and radii is created using standard aerodynamic design criteria.
  • detachment tendencies are taken into account, which e.g. be displayed by a high so-called "Boundary Layer Shape Factor".
  • the axial profiles of the first and second part of each blade as well as the profile of the gap between the first and second part are characterized by the features of a parting surface by each blade.
  • the profile of this separation surface according to the invention extends substantially along a curvature which is the same or similar to the curvature of the suction side of the blade.
  • Both boundary surfaces of the gap between the first and second run according to the separation surface parallel to each other. The gap flow between the first and second part undergoes an exit angle according to these parallel boundary surfaces when leaving the gap.
  • This exit angle is slightly greater than the exit angle of the flow through the original channel between the second part of a blade and the first part of the adjacent blade, since the exit angle of the original channel flow is determined by the curvature of the suction side and the pressure side of the adjacent blade. This generates the slightly stronger deflection of the mass flow through the gap between the first and second part of the blades and thereby the regulation of the inlet angle of the flow to the rotor of the machine.
  • the profile of the parting surface for creating the first and second blade part can be seen in two parts.
  • the first and longer part starts at the pressure side of the blade and extends in the direction of the suction side. It runs along a line that corresponds to the axially displaced profile line of the suction side of the entire bucket.
  • An axial displacement means a displacement parallel to the shaft axis of the machine.
  • the profile of the second and shorter part of the parting surface, which extends from the first part to the suction side has a spline, so that a smooth connection to the suction side is created.
  • the location of the interface i. the extent of the axial displacement of the profile line of the suction side, determined by the end edge of the separation surface on the pressure side of the blade.
  • this end edge lies in a range from 80 to 90% of the axial chord of the blade starting from the front edge of the blade.
  • the end edge of the second part of the separation surface on the suction side, starting from the leading edge of the blade, is in a range of 40-60% of the axial chord.
  • the first and second part of a blade are rounded in the region of the end edges of the parting surface.
  • Rounding the first and upstream portions of the blade at the edge where the interface meets the suction side of the blade has a radius of curvature of a minimum size such that flow along the first and second portions does not separate from the profile surfaces.
  • the radius of curvature also has a maximum size, so that the overall profile of the blade with the first and second part in contact with each other, yet aerodynamically smooth.
  • a rounding at the second and downstream part at the edge where the parting surface meets the suction side of the blade forms the leading edge of the second part.
