摘要:
为满足大推力、高转速航空发动机滑油系统对高性能滑油泵的需求,针对新型高速旋板式滑油泵开展了数值模拟研究,采用Mixture多相流模型,Singhal全空化模型和renormalization group(RNG)
k-ε 湍流模型开展数值计算,并通过实验验证数值模拟方法的可靠性,进而分析不同入口压力和油液温度条件下旋板泵空化特性及对泵性能影响规律。结果表明:空化气体主要分布在吸油侧容积腔内,以及旋板吸力面和贴近转子内壁处。随着入口压力的降低和油液温度的升高,旋板泵内空化现象加剧,空化气体增多,进而使得泵出口平均排油流量减小,容积效率降低;当入口压力降低至40 kPa,温度升至373.15 K时,泵出口平均排油流量和容积效率均显著降低;监测点压力脉动呈现低频高幅脉动的特点。旋板泵的空化不仅影响其排油量和容积效率,而且也直接影响泵的稳定可靠工作。Abstract:To meet the demand for high-performance oil pumps in the lubricating oil system of high thrust and high-speed aeroengines, numerical simulation was conducted on a new high-speed rotary vane oil pump. The Mixture multiphase flow model, Singhal full cavitation model, and renormalization group(RNG)
k -ε turbulence model were employed for numerical calculation, and the reliability of the numerical simulation method was verified through experiments. Then, cavitation characteristics of the rotary vane pump and its impact on pump performance under different inlet pressure and oil temperature conditions were analyzed. The results showed that the cavitation gas was mainly distributed in the volume chamber on the oil suction side, as well as on the suction surface of the rotary vane and near the inner wall of the rotor. With the decrease of inlet pressure and the increase of oil temperature, the cavitation phenomenon inside the rotary vane pump intensified, and the cavitation gas increased, which in turn led to a decrease in the average oil discharge flow rate at the pump outlet and a decrease in volumetric efficiency. When the inlet pressure dropped to 40 kPa and the temperature rose to 373.15 K, the average oil discharge flow rate and volumetric efficiency at the pump outlet both significantly decreased. The pressure pulsation at the monitoring point exhibited low-frequency and high-amplitude pulsation characteristics. The cavitation of the rotary vane pump affected not only its oil discharge and volumetric efficiency, but also the stable and reliable operation of the pump. -
