FU Hui min, LIU Cheng rui, MA Xiao bing
2002, 17(5): 505-512.
Abstract:
The correlation coefficient stationary process in which the mean and variance vary with time is familiar in engineering,and the traditional correlation function stationary process is just a special case of that.The method of time frequency analysis and AR(p),MA(q) and ARMA(p, q) models of the correlation coefficient stationary process are presented in this paper.Its mean function, variance function and correlation coefficient function can be gained by the method in time domain.Thus the spectrum density of the correlation coefficient stationary process can be obtained by Fourier transform,short time Fourier transform or wavelet transform.The formulas for calculating the response of a linear system are derived when the input is a correlation coefficient stationary signal.In addition, the concepts of trend component spectrum density and random component spectrum density in random processes are also presented herein.The method has been used in the performance tests of aircraft and satellite successfully.It shows that a great number of specimens and time have been saved.

Abstract:
Considering the operational characters of tilt rotor/propeller,a design method for tilt rotor/propeller is presented.This approach,based upon axial flow blade element theory and genetic algorithms,can define the rotor/propeller blade design variables to converge on a best compromise that meets the desired hover/cruise performance requirements.The design results show that an improvement of hover performace without causing a decrease of cruise efficiency can be obtained by the method.

2002, 17(5): 518-523.
Abstract:
The effect of grazing bias flow interaction on the orifice acoustic impedance has been experimentally investigated.It is shown that the acoustic resistance of an orifice increases slowly with the increase of bias flow speed because of grazing flow effect,but the acoustic resistance is dominated by the bias flow effect when bias flow speed is comparatively high.In addition,there is some difference between grazing inflow and grazing outflow interactions.Finally, an attempt is made to correlate the experimental data in terms of the effective discharge coefficient.

ZHANG Jing zhou, SHAN Yong
2002, 17(5): 524-527.
Abstract:
Numerical computation of 2 D flow fields inside a mixer ejector was conducted using one dimensional ejector pumping relationship and full Navier Stokes equations.Firstly,the ideal pumping coefficient was determined based on the one dimensional ejector pumping relationship.Then the coefficients in the one dimensional ejector pumping relationship were corrected according to the velocity distribution and wall friction resulting from the calculation of Navier Stokes equations.The final pumping coefficient can be obtained by repeating the above process until the residual is satisfied.From the comparison between the computation results and experimental data,it is concluded that the present method is reasonable in predicting the mixer ejector pumping capacity.

ZHU Guo dong, LI Pei jun, SHAN Peng
2002, 17(5): 538-541.
Abstract:
The quest for higher stage pressure ratio has been promoted by engine researchers.But in the multi stage fan and compressors,the rise in total and static pressures of a single stage axial flow compressor is constrained by many factors.The maximum stage loading level has a limitation.Using a simplified stage model,this paper investigates this level of a super or tran sonic single stage axial flow compressor under the conditions of the widest rotor stator matching and the stage matching.The paper concludes that the stage pressure ratio must be less than 37 when considering only the theoretical loading mechanism.Meanwhile it gives several graphs to exhibit the influencing strength of each constraint.

WU Yan hui, ZHU Jun qiang, LIU Zhi wei
2002, 17(5): 542-548.
Abstract:
A new method for determining the axial position of treated casing in multistage axial flow compressors is set up in this paper.Firstly,the stalling pressure rise capability of axial flow compressor stages is predicted,and the stage in which stall occurs first could be located theoretically and be verified experimentally.Secondly,the stage stall appearing first is taken as the axial position of treated casing.The idea is verified in a systematic way with the help of four kinds of different casing treatment in a subsonic two stage axial flow compressor.Experimental results indicate that the treated casing placed on the first stalling stage could improve the stall margin better.The method presented in the paper could be used as the guide in the casing treatment design for determining the axial position of the treated casing.

ZHANG Wen long, YUAN Wei, ZHANG Jian, ZHOU Sheng
2002, 17(5): 556-560.
Abstract:
Although vortex shedding is a self excited unsteady flow phenomenon in turbomachinery blading with a blunt trailing edge,and the trailing edge of a compressor is not blunt,the phenomenon of vortex shedding is still thought to occur in a compressor blade row because of the viscosity and pressure gradient.The flow in the boundary layer is strongly affected by the adverse pressure gradients that tend to make the flow to separate,so there are a lot of vortices in the blade region.A numerical study has been carried out to simulate trailing edge vortex shedding of some kind of compressor cascade.A series of flow simulation are performed,and the structure of flow field and the mechanism of unsteady flow are investigated preliminarily.The numerical results indicated that the flow is strong unsteady flow,though the boundary conditions are steady.When incidence is big,the trailing edge vortex shedding is like Karman vortex shedding.The frequency of vortex shedding and the position of separation are affected by the incidence and Mach number.
Research of the Unsteady-Fluid Characteristic Parameter in an Annular Cascade
WEN Xue, LI Zhi ping, ZHOU Hai, GE Jing dong
2002, 17(5): 561-566.
Abstract:
In the annular cascade test,we aim to observe the fluid field behind the annulus blades,focusing on the velocity field and the vortex shedding frequency in particular,and to investigate the effect of fluid incidence and flux on them.In comparison with the cascade with high positive incidene,the high negative incidence cascade has wider separating section,stronger vortex,and slower wake delay,but weaker vortex intensity.As the incidence approaches the designed value,it can be seen obviously that the separation diminishes and dissipates as the vortices quickly blend with the main flow. Additionally,there is a characteristic frequency valued at 723 Hz in the diverse cases.

2002, 17(5): 567-571.
Abstract:
In 1995,a new,compact and efficient method to stabilize flame,referred to as Trapped Vortex concept,was introduced firstly by K.-Y.Hsu,a professor of Dayton University.For obtaining good performance characteristics in a trapped vortex combustor,the fluid dynamics should be studied in depth.On the basis of former research work,a numerical investigation and experimental research work were performed for understanding the relationship of trapped vortex characteristics and pressure loss varying with the diameter afterbody (Da) and the length of centerbody (H) under cold environments when the diameter of forebody and the inlet annular velocity are fixed at Df=70 mm and Ma=03 respectively.The results show that within the range of Da/Df=05~08,each value of Da/Df corresponds to a specific optimal H/D (02~20),when a stable vortex is trapped in the cavity.The characteristics of this trapped vortex,mainly the vortex core and vortex area,meet the requirements for the injection of fuel and primary air introduction.In addition,a minimum pressure drop is achieved across the combustor.

Abstract:
Detailed heat transfer measurements were conducted on the turbine blade surface of a large scale low speed turbine cascade with injection on the surface of turbine blade.Local film cooling effectiveness and heat transfer coefficient with coolant injection were determined at different blowing ratios.In conjunction with the previous measurements of the flow field,the behaviours of turbine blade surface film cooling and heat transfer were studied.The results show that turbine blade surface film cooling and heat transfer are different greatly in different hole array position.The coverage of the coolant on the surface is mainly determined by blowing ratio for same geometry.It was also observed that coolant injection made the overall averaged heat transfer increase remarkably with blowing ratio and then made the thermal loads on the surface decrease effectively.

ZHANG Tao, MENG Guang
2002, 17(5): 597-604.
Abstract:
The nonlinear character of a rub rotor system with SFD is analyzed in this paper.It was found that with an increase in the rotating speed,the amplitude of the system response increases in the end.In such a process,the max amplitude of the system response several kinds of changes.Sometimes it increases,sometimes it decreases,and sometimes it keeps constant.It also was found that there is close relationship between the period solution bifurcation and the max amplitude of the system.At the bifurcation point,the max amplitude of the system varies intensely.SFD has an obvious absorber effect of the system.But when the parameter of SFD exceeds a certain value,the variation of this parameter hasn’t any obvious infection on the absorber effect of the system.And the friction coefficient of the rub has a good effect on the absorber effect of the system too.A large friction coefficient can make the system to work more steadily.But sometimes,a smaller friction coefficient can play a positive role for the absorber to.An imbalance coefficient influences the max amplitude of the system greatly.The higher the coefficient is,the larger the max ampiltude of the system.It also was found that keeping the system under period solution state can make the max amplitude decreasing.

LI Jia wen, ZHANG Zhen peng
2002, 17(5): 650-654.
Abstract:
This paper discusses the sensitivity of fault in fault diagnosis when structural elimination method is applied.Fault diagnosis in the structural elimination is based on mathematical model and measured parameters.Because the measured parameters vary with the different faults,it is necessary to make deeper analysis when employing (0,1) fault matrix to reduce the possibility of making wrong diagnosis.The analytical method mentioned above which uses the sensitivity matrix is proposed in this paper.The method of calculating sensitivity matrix and an example that uses the matrix are also presented.The sensitivity matrix as well as the sensitivity degree of parameters for fault is compared with (0,1) fault matrix.The best test parameters can be chosen and the parameter’s combination can be eliminated according to different relationships of fault when the fault diagnosis system is designed by using the sensitivity matrix.Therefore,the reliability of the result of fault diagnosis will be improved.
Recent Development and Prospects for the Distributed Simulation of Gas Turbine
LIU Yong wen, ZHANG Hui sheng, WENG Shi lie
2002, 17(5): 655-664.
Abstract:
Due to the complexity of gas turbines and the increasing requirements (including economic,safety and environmental protection) being imposed upon,the pressure to decrease the design and development costs,time and risks of gas turbine is accordingly increasing.With in depth study of various physical phenomena,precise models of different parts and different disciplines have been developed.However,it is not an easy job to integrate these models into a system model.One particular difficulty comes from the fact that different hardware/software platforms and different programming models are used.In order to make these models interact,distributed simulation environment and unified programming model must be used.The programming models used in general distributed systems can be classified into message passing,control flow,data flow,blackboard/shared space, mobile object/agent.In this article,these programming models are generally described and their applications in gas turbine distributed simulation are also reviewed.However,one serious drawback of the programming models been used is that they lack direct support for distributed simulation,so the needed features have to be added usually at the will of the developers, without taking into consideration of standardization.The US Department of Defense has set down a distributed interactive simulation standard High Level Architecture,whose main purpose is to facilitate the reusability and interoperability of simulation.The HLA should also be adopted as the standard for gas turbine distributed simulation to facilitate the multi site,muliti part,and multi discipline integrated simulation of gas turbine.Some advice on further development of gas turbine simulation is also given to domestic researchers.
