摘要:
为了研究进气旋流畸变对航空发动机整机及风扇/压气机部件气动性能与稳定性的影响,设计了一种由多个可变弯度叶片组成的旋流畸变发生器。通过结合计算流体动力学(CFD)数值仿真与试验方法,深入分析了旋流畸变发生器下游流场的特性,并对气动界面的旋流评价指标进行了评估。研究结果显示,通过调整旋流畸变发生器的叶片组合,能够在下游形成显著的整体涡和对涡。随着后段叶片安装角的增加以及来流马赫数的提升,旋流强度逐渐增强,在来流马赫数等于0.35时,整体涡发生器在气动界面上的最大值可达36.04°,而对涡发生器的最大值可达29.95°。
Abstract:To study the effect of inlet swirl distortion on the aerodynamic performance and stability of the entire engine and its fan/compressor components, a swirl distortion generator with variable curvature blades was designed. By combining computational fluid dynamics (CFD) numerical simulation with experimental methods, the characteristics of the flow field downstream of the swirl distortion generator were analyzed in depth, and the swirl evaluation indicators at the aerodynamic interface were assessed. The research results show that by adjusting the blade combination of the swirl distortion generator, significant bulk swirl and twin swirl can be formed downstream. As the blade stagger angle at the rear section increases and the incoming flow Mach number rises, the swirl intensity gradually increases. The maximum value of the bulk swirl generator at the aerodynamic interface can reach 36.04°, while the maximum value of the twin swirl generator can reach 29.95°.
