压气机直、弯静叶Clocking效应实验研究

实验研究静叶Clocking效应对采用直、弯静叶的某低速双级轴流压气机气动性能影响.结果表明,随Clocking位置不同,上游静叶尾迹被输运到下游叶列流道中不同周向位置并与该列叶栅不同区域流体掺混是导致压气机性能变化的主要原因,且采用弯曲静叶的压气机性能随Clocking位置不同而变化的幅度要小一些.静叶Clocking位置固定时,采用弯静叶时压气机效率比直静叶时明显提高,且随流量减小而趋势显著,设计工况和近喘振点处分别约提高0.7%、3.5%.针对本文研究的压气机,综合静叶造型和Clocking效应影响,采用弯曲静叶的压气机设计点处效率最高可提高1.22%,最低提高为0.07%.

Experimental Study of Stator Clocking Effects in an Axial Compressor

This paper is focused on the experimental study of the effects of stator clocking on the performance of a low-speed repeating stage axial compressor with compound-lean stators as well as the one with conven- tional stators (the baseline) for comparison. The experimental results show that as the clocking positions vary, the upstream stator wake enters the following passage at different circumferential positions, and then mixes with the local fluid in the following passage. This is the main reason for the variation of the compressor per- formance resulted from the stator clocking effects. The variation of the compressor performance due to the clocking effect is less pronounced for the compressor with compound-lean stators than with the baseline. At a certain clocking position, the efficiency of the compressor with compound-lean stators is increased in com- parison with that of the baseline,especially on small mass flow rate conditions, e.g., 0.7% at design condition and 3.5% at near-surge condition in this case. The maximum 1.22% and the minimum 0.07% increases in effi- ciency on design condition are obtained through the combined effects of the stator compound-lean and the sta- tor clocking in this case.
