摘要:
针对石墨粉尘在高温气冷堆(HTGR)氦气透平内沉积影响性能与维护的问题,通过数值模拟的方法研究了石墨粉尘颗粒在具有气膜冷却的氦气透平叶片表面上的运动沉积行为,考虑了颗粒与壁面之间的反弹作用以及流场对沉积颗粒的起尘作用,建立了石墨粉尘颗粒的沉积-重悬浮模型。研究结果表明:对于氦气透平叶片,吸力面几乎没有颗粒发生撞击,因此基本没有颗粒沉积。而压力面的颗粒沉积主要集中在中部,末端由于切应力较大,颗粒重悬浮效应较为明显。小颗粒由于惯性较小,更容易在反向对漩涡的影响下发生沉积,其沉积率主要受到碰撞率的影响;大颗粒由于临界沉积速度较小,所以沉积率显著低于小颗粒,其沉积率主要受到黏附率的影响;随着吹风比的增加,气膜的卷吸作用增强,使得小颗粒的沉积率不断增加。

Abstract:To address the issue of graphite dust deposition within the helium turbine of high-temperature reactors (HTGR) impacting performance and maintenance, the motion and deposition behaviors of graphite dust particles on the helium turbine walls with film cooling were investigated by numerical simulations. The rebound effects between the particles and the wall, as well as the resuspension of deposited particles caused by the flow field were considered. A deposition-resuspension model for graphite dust particles was established. The results indicated that due to the shape of the turbine blades, almost no particles impacted the suction surface, leading to no particle deposition. Due to higher shear stress at the trailing edge, the deposition on the pressure surface mainly concentrated at the middle. Small particles with lower inertia were more prone to deposition under the influence of counter-rotating vortices, and their deposition rate was primarily influenced by the collision rate. Larger particles with a lower critical deposition velocity exhibited a significantly lower deposition rate, which was mainly affected by the adhesion rate. As the blowing ratio increased, the entrainment effect of the cooling film intensified, resulting in a continuous increase in the deposition rate of smaller particles.
