研究目的
To study the combined effects of unsteady wakes and oncoming free-stream turbulence intensities on the film cooling effectiveness of a turbine blade using the pressure sensitive paint (PSP) technique.
研究成果
The research concludes that unsteady wakes and high free-stream turbulence generally reduce film cooling effectiveness on turbine blades, with effects varying by surface region and mass flux ratio. High turbulence diminishes the impact of wakes, and the suction surface is more affected than the pressure surface. These findings provide insights for optimizing cooling strategies in gas turbines.
研究不足
The study is limited to a specific blade geometry and scale model; results may not fully represent real turbine conditions. Uncertainty in PSP measurements increases at lower effectiveness values, and the experimental setup may not capture all complex flow interactions in actual engines.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study uses a linear cascade setup with a spoke-wheel type wake generator to simulate unsteady wakes. The PSP technique is employed to measure film cooling effectiveness, based on photoluminescence and oxygen quenching principles.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
A scaled-up turbine blade model with specific film hole configurations is used. Mainstream and secondary flows are controlled, with nitrogen as coolant for PSP measurements.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Includes centrifugal blower, compressor, nitrogen tank, flow meter, heater, wake generator, hot-wire probe, pressure taps, PSP paint (UniFIB), CCD camera, excitation light, and turbulence grid.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Mainstream air flows through the cascade; secondary flow (nitrogen or air) is injected through film holes. PSP measurements involve four tests under dark, reference, and test conditions to obtain emission intensities. Pressure and turbulence measurements are conducted using pressure taps and hot-wire probes.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Data is analyzed using the Stern-Volmer equation for PSP calibration and uncertainty analysis based on established methods. Film cooling effectiveness is calculated from oxygen partial pressures.
