Abstract
Interacting between the next rows of the turbine creates a circumferential flow non-uniformity, which leads to origination of resonance dynamic stresses on rotor bladings with frequencies z·fn, where fn - a rotor rotation frequency, z - number of stator vanes. At projection and development of the engine is not always possible detuning from a resonance as the spectrum of eigenfrequencies of rotor blades can be wide enough in relation to a band of working rotor speed. Reduction of exterior exciting forces can be one of ways of a reduction of dynamic stresses in rotor blades. For attenuation of these forces intensity was possibly use of a stator vanes with a different spacing, and also with the blades inclined in a circumferential direction. In the given article numerical research for choice a distribution law of stator vanes spacing and a declivity angle of its blades, allowed to diminish amplitude of the unsteady air forces acting on rotor blades with frequency z·fn are presented. As object for examinations the stage of the air starter turbine, the containing 26 nozzle vanes disposed with different spacings, and 40 rotor blades without a binding has served. Rotor blades and turbine disk of the air starter are made for a single whole of an aluminium alloy. This work was executed stage by stage: in the beginning the angular disposition of vanes blades, giving maximum decrease of exciting forces on rotor blades, by results of unsteady flow calculation in the turbine was chosen; then for the found geometry of a vanes the slope angle of its blades in the circumferential direction, giving the maximum decrease of exciting forces on rotor blades was chosen. The viscous gas unsteady flow was modelled in the computational domain including all blade passages of turbine rows - 26 channels in a nozzle and 40 channels in the rotor wheel. By results of calculation dependence of decrease unsteady force acting on blades and changes of turbine efficiency from a slope angle of vanes is presented. Reduction of dynamic stresses level in rotor blades of the turbine at the expense of decrease of aerodynamic exciting forces amplitude is attained. The numerical result is confirmed experimentally in rig test by decrease of resonance stresses on explored frequencies.
