Description

TURBINE WHEEL FOR A TURBINE
Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a turbine wheel for a turbine, in particular a turbine of an exhaust gas turbocharger, and an exhaust gas turbocharger with the corresponding turbine.
Background Information
[0002] Increasingly more vehicles of the more recent generation are equipped with turbochargers. In order to achieve the target demands and the legal requirements, it is imperative to promote development in the complete drive train and also to optimize the individual components as well as the system as a whole with respect to their reliability and efficiency.
[0003] Known turbochargers have a turbine housing, a compressor housing, and a bearing housing which is conventionally connected to the turbine housing on the turbine side and to the compressor housing on the compressor side. A shaft, which supports the turbine wheel and the compressor wheel, is mounted in the bearing housing. During operation, the turbine wheel is driven by the exhaust gas flow. The compressor wheel is then simultaneously set into rotation via the shaft so that the compressor wheel may compress the intake air. The exhaust gas flow is thereby guided in the direction of the turbine wheel via a volute. The turbine wheel generally comprises a main body and turbine blades which have a leading edge. The exhaust gas flow initially strikes the leading edges of the turbine blades and is then deflected along the turbine blades (by which means the turbine wheel is set into rotation) and then leaves the turbine in the axial direction. The form and arrangement of the turbine wheel or the turbine blades and their leading edges is thereby decisive for the effectiveness and efficiency of the turbine, and thus the exhaust gas turbocharger. [0004] The goal of the present invention is to provide a turbine wheel for a turbine of an exhaust gas turbocharger which guarantees a high efficiency of the turbine.
Brief Summary of the Invention
[0005] The present invention relates to a turbine wheel for a turbine, in particular a turbine of an exhaust gas turbocharger according to Claim 1, and an exhaust gas turbocharger according to Claim 15. [0006] The turbine wheel according to the invention has a base body comprising a back wall and a plurality of turbine blades, connected to the base body, which each comprise a leading edge. The leading edges are designed to be wave shaped. The wave-shaped configuration of the leading edge has the advantage that the kinematic energy of the exhaust gas flow may be used more efficiently for driving the turbine wheel and thus simultaneously for driving the compressor. By this means, the efficiency of the turbine, and consequently the entire exhaust gas turbocharger, increases.
[0007] In embodiments, the leading edge may be designed with an S-shape. A curve of the shape of the leading edges may have at least one inflection point. The leading edges may have a curve, which begins at the back wall of the base body and has a positive direction counter to the direction of rotation of the turbine wheel, which satisfies the following conditions: (i) the curve has an initial gradient; (ii) the curve has at least one extremum; and (iii) the curve has at least one inflection point. The curve may have an initial positive gradient and have at least one maximum. The at least one inflection point may be provided after the maximum in the direction of rotation x. The curve may additionally have a minimum after the inflection point in the direction of rotation. Alternatively to the initial positive gradient, the curve may have an initial negative gradient and have at least one minimum. The at least one inflection point may be provided after the minimum in the direction of rotation. The curve may additionally have a maximum, a second inflection point, and a second minimum after the inflection point in the direction of the axis of rotation. [0008] In embodiments which are combinable with all previously described embodiments, the leading edges may be designed in such a way that the wave shape of the leading edges may be projected into a plane which is defined by a tangent with respect to the direction of rotation of each leading edge and an axis of rotation of the turbine wheel.
[0009] In embodiments which are combinable with all previously described embodiments, the leading edges may lie in an imaginary lateral surface and a contour of each leading edge may have a wave shape in the lateral surface. The lateral surface may be a lateral surface of a cylinder. Alternatively, the lateral surface may be the lateral surface of a cone. The diameter of the cone may be largest at the back wall, wherein the cone tapers extending from the back wall. Alternatively, the diameter of the cone may be smallest at the back wall, and the cone may expand extending from the back wall.
[0010] In embodiments which are combinable with all previously described embodiments, a curve of a blade angle of inclination Θ of the turbine blades in the direction of rotation x, which begins at the back wall of the base body and has a positive angle counter to the rotational direction of the turbine wheel, may satisfy the following conditions: (i) θ(χ) has an initial gradient; (ii) θ(χ) has at least one extremum; and (iii) θ(χ) has at least one inflection point. θ(χ) may have an initial positive gradient, have at least one maximum, and the at least one inflection point may be provided after the maximum in the direction of the axis of rotation x. θ(χ) may additionally have a minimum after the inflection point in the direction of the axis of rotation x. Alternatively to the initial positive gradient, θ(χ) may have an initial negative gradient and have at least one minimum. The at least one inflection point may be provided after the minimum in the direction of the axis of rotation x. After the inflection point, θ(χ) may additionally have a maximum, a second inflection point, and a second minimum in the axial direction. [0011] The invention additionally comprises an exhaust gas turbocharger with a compressor and a turbine, wherein the turbine has a turbine wheel according to any one of the previously described embodiments. Brief Description of the Drawings
Figure 1 shows a perspective view of one embodiment of the turbine wheel according to the invention; Figure 2 shows a side view, a front view, and a top view of a turbine blade of one embodiment of the turbine wheel according to the invention.
Detailed Description of the Invention [0012] Embodiments for the turbine wheel according to the invention for a turbine of an exhaust gas turbocharger are subsequently described by way of the figures.
[0013] Figure 1 shows a perspective view of a schematic depiction of one embodiment of the turbine wheel according to the invention. Turbine wheel 10 has a base body 100 with a back wall 1 10. A plurality of turbine blades 200 is arranged on base body 100. The turbine blades each have a leading edge 210. The leading edges 210 are designed with a wave shape (see Figure 1 and Figure 2 lower left). Leading edge 210 designates that part of the outer edge of a turbine blade 200 which in the installed state in not directly surrounded outwardly by the turbine housing in the radial direction (r in the two upper views in Figure 2), but instead runs openly counter to the exhaust gas flow coming out of the volute. This means, leading edges 210 are the edge sections of turbine blades 200 facing the inflowing exhaust gas. In the upper left view of Figure 2, the area of leading edge 210 (more specifically its axial extension relative to the axis of rotation x of the turbine wheel) is designated with b. The wave-shaped configuration of leading edge 210 has the advantage that the kinematic energy of the exhaust gas flow may be exploited more efficiently for driving turbine wheel 10 and thus may also be used for the function of the compressor. By this means, the efficiency of the turbine, and consequently the entire exhaust gas turbocharger, increases.
[0014] Leading edges 210 may, for example, be configured with an S-shape. S- shaped means, in particular, an extended S-shape beginning from back wall 110 of turbine wheel 10 without undercuts (see Figure 1 and Figure 2 lower left). S- shaped leading edge 210 does not thereby have to form a complete S (no undercuts) and also need not be configured symmetrically. The wave shape or S- shaped form also does not have to extend over the entire length of leading edge 210. Thus, a wave shape or S-shaped area may also include an area with a different shape, for example, with a straight line.
[0015] As indicated in Figure 1 and is perceived more clearly in Figure 2 lower left, the curved shape of leading edges 210 has an inflection point 3. The curve may also have more than one inflection point. Leading edge 210 of Figure 2 lower left has, in particular a curve, which begins at back wall 110 of base body 100 and has a positive direction counter to the direction of rotation of the turbine wheel (the direction of rotation is indicated by arrows in Figure 1 and Figure 2, top right and lower left), and satisfies the following conditions:
(i) The curve has an initial gradient;
(ii) The curve has at least one extremum 2; and
(iii) The curve has at least one inflection point 3. [0016] The curve of the embodiment shown in Figure 2 has an initial positive gradient and has a maximum 2. Inflection point 3 is provided after maximum 2 in the direction of axis of rotation x. The curve additionally has a minimum at the end of leading edge 210. Alternatively to the initial positive gradient, the curve may have an initial negative gradient and have at least one minimum. The at least one inflection point is then provided after the minimum in the direction of the axis of rotation. Furthermore, after the inflection point, the curve may additionally have a maximum, a second inflection point, and a second minimum in the direction of axis of rotation x. [0017] In particular, leading edges 210 are designed in such a way that the wave shape of leading edges 210 may be projected into a plane, which is defined by a tangent with respect to the direction of rotation of each leading edge 210 and axis of rotation x of turbine wheel 10. The depiction in the lower left of Figure 2 corresponds to a view of the leading edge in such a projection: a coordinate system which defines the respective plane (a corresponding plane for each blade) has a first axis along axis of rotation x of turbine wheel 10 with a positive direction arising from back wall 110 in the direction of the turbine blades and a second axis along the respective tangent to the direction of rotation (see arrow in Figure 2 lower left), which a positive direction counter to the direction of rotation of turbine wheel 10. In other words: leading edge 210 of turbine wheel 10 has a wave shape, when viewed in the flow direction, perpendicular to the direction of rotation, and perpendicular to axis of rotation x of turbine wheel 10.
[0018] Alternatively of simultaneously, the shape and orientation of leading edge 210 may satisfy the following conditions: leading edge 210 lies in an imaginary lateral surface and the contour of each leading edge 210 in the lateral surface may have a wave shape. The lateral surface may be, for example, a lateral surface of a cylinder. Alternatively, the lateral surface in which leading edges 210 lie may be the lateral surface of a cone. In the example of leading edge 210 shown in Figure 2 top left, the lateral surface is conical and the diameter of the cone is smallest at back wall 110. The cone expands extending from back wall 110 (In Figure 2 top left: positive increase of leading edge 210 in area b along axis of rotation x in the side view projection). Alternatively, the diameter of the cone may be largest at back wall 110, wherein the cone tapers extending from back wall 1 10. When projected into a side view plane, which is defined by axis of rotation x and radial direction r (parallel to the back wall), the leading edge may thus run either parallel to axis or rotation x or inclined to axis of rotation x (as shown in Figure 2). An inclined curve means that leading edge 210, when viewed in the side view plane, either initially increases or decreases from the back wall (see depiction top left in Figure 2, which shows an increasing curve of leading edge 210). [0019] In other words, the shape and orientation of leading edge 210 may also be defined using the following conditions for the curve of a blade angle of inclination (Θ) (see Figure 2 top right and lower left as ordinate axes) of turbine blade 200 in the direction of axis of rotation x, which begins at back wall 110 of base body 100 and has a positive angle counter to the direction of rotation of turbine wheel 10:
(i) θ(χ) has an initial gradient;
(ii) θ(χ) has at least one extremum 2; and
(iii) θ(χ) has at least one inflection point 3.
[0020] Blade angle of inclination Θ describes the inclination of turbine blade 200 at an arbitrary point of turbine blade 200 with respect to, for example, an origin position of turbine blade 200 from back wall 110. The two legs which enclose blade angle of inclination Θ may be defined as follows: the first stationary leg is defined by a first straight line Gl (congruent with r in the top right depiction of Figure 2), which stands perpendicular to axis of rotation x of turbine wheel 10, wherein first straight line Gl connects axis of rotation x to an intersection point (point 1 in the lower left depiction of Figure 2) of leading edge 210 with back wall 110. The second leg is determined by a projection of a second straight line G2 in a plane which runs perpendicular to axis of rotation x, and the first stationary leg lies in this plane. Second straight line G2 stands in turn perpendicular to axis of rotation x and connects axis of rotation to an arbitrarily selected point on the radial outer edge of each turbine blade 200. The two legs thus derived then define blade angle of inclination Θ of turbine blade 200 at the selected point and with respect to the stationary first leg (intersection point of leading edge 210 with back wall 110). Blade angle of inclination Θ may thus be determined for any arbitrary point over the entire curve of the blade edge (and not only for area b of leading edge 210). In Figure 2, in the top right depiction, angle Θ is plotted for the outermost point, in the direction of axis of rotation x, of the radial outer edge of turbine blade 200. The lower left depiction shows the curve of angle Θ plotted across axis of rotation x. The curve represents θ(χ). In Figure 2, lower left, an embodiment of turbine wheel 10 is shown, which has a leading edge 210 in area b of blade 200, which has its origin at point 1 (emergence from back wall 110) and θ(χ) has, after an initial positive gradient, a (local) maximum at point 2 and has an inflection at point 3. A minimum is indicated at the end of the leading edge.
[0021] Alternatively to the initial positive gradient, θ(χ) may have an initial negative gradient and at least one minimum. The inflection point is then provided after the minimum in the direction of axis of rotation x. After the inflection point, θ(χ) may additionally have a maximum, a second inflection point, and a second minimum in the axial direction.
