摘要:
为详细研究涡轮转子叶尖区局部流动损失机理,应用内部脱体涡模拟程序对涡轮转子叶尖端区流动进行了脱体涡模拟,获得了高精度流场信息。通过熵产分析对叶尖端区泄漏流与主流掺混过程中的局部流动损失进行了定量评估,分辨和探究了时均流场和脉动流场对熵产率的贡献及贡献机制。研究结果表明:时均熵产和脉动熵产对涡轮转子动叶尖区流动损失的重要组成部分,上游由时均熵产主导,下游由脉动熵产主导。时均熵产的产生及其空间分布形式均由泄漏射流的法向速度型决定,上下游泄漏流法向速度型边界层厚度和剪切强度的差异,导致了时均熵产大小和空间形态的差异。脉动熵产的产生是由时均变形率张量引起的脉动熵产自放大项和脉动场旋涡结构引起的压力黑森项主导。
Abstract:An in-house detached eddy simulation program was employed to simulate the flow in the turbine rotor blade tip region, and high-precision flow field data were obtained, so as to comprehensively investigate the physical process of local aerodynamic loss in this region. The local mixing loss caused by mixing between tip leakage and mainstream flows in the tip clearance region was quantitatively assessed using entropy production analysis. Additionally, the mechanisms and contributions of the time-averaged flow field and fluctuating flow field to the entropy production rate were explored. The results demonstrated that both time-averaged and fluctuating entropy productions were important sources of the mixing loss. Time-averaged entropy production dominated upstream losses, whereas fluctuating entropy production dominated downstream losses. The generation and spatial distribution of the time-averaged entropy production were determined by the normal velocity profile of the tip leakage jet. Time-averaged entropy production varied in magnitude and spatial distribution due to differences in shear strength and the thickness of the tip leakage flow boundary layers in the upstream and downstream locations. The generation of the fluctuating entropy production was dominated by the amplification term caused by the time-averaged strain rate tensor and the pressure Hessian term caused by the vortical structures in the fluctuating flow field.
