Definitions
- the invention relates to a diffuser for decelerating a fluid with at least one wall forming a channel with an inlet cross section and an outlet cross section, the flow cross section of the channel being larger at the outlet cross section than at the inlet cross section.
- Diffusers of this type are known from a large number of turbomachines. For example, at the low pressure end of a steam turbine
- the reduced heat input due to dissipation also reduces the cooling capacity of the condenser, which is connected downstream of steam turbines.
- a suction pipe is connected to Francis turbines through which a liquid flows, in order to achieve the above-mentioned conversion from speed energy to pressure energy and thus to increase the performance of the turbine.
- a fundamental problem with diffusers of all kinds is that separation effects between the flow and the wall of the diffuser can occur due to the delayed flow. In any case, these detachment effects reduce the free cross section of the diffuser and thus at least partially cancel out its effect. You can also use the WO 00/49297 PCTtEPOO / 01300
- pulsations Detachment effects of so-called impact boundary layer pulsations, hereinafter referred to as pulsations, in which fluid is generated which can excite the turbine blades and the housing of an upstream turbine and the housing of the diffuser to vibrate. These vibrations are highly undesirable, since they represent an additional mechanical load on the components affected by them and can therefore significantly reduce the operational safety and service life of these components.
- baffles By installing baffles in the channel of the diffuser, an attempt was made, for example, to prevent the flow from detaching from the convexly curved wall of the diffuser. This can reduce pulsation. However, the efficiency of the diffuser deteriorates significantly due to the fixed baffles during the entire operating time.
- Another approach to preventing pulsations is to increase the ratio of the outlet cross-section to the inlet cross-section of the diffuser (change in impact length). Also through this measure Impact boundary layer pulsations cannot be completely suppressed.
- the invention is based on the object of providing a diffuser and a turbine which have a good efficiency in the entire operating range and over the entire operating time and during their operation no impact boundary layer pulsations occur.
- the invention has for its object to provide a method to effectively suppress pulsations in a diffuser.
- a diffuser for retarding a fluid with at least one wall forming a channel with an inlet cross section and an outlet cross section, the flow cross section of the channel being larger at the outlet cross section than at
- Entry cross-section is and the wall has at least one opening through which an energizing fluid can be conveyed into the channel.
- the inlet opening or the inlet openings are circular or as an elongated hole, so that the openings are easy to manufacture and have only a slight notch effect.
- the inlet openings are arranged in at least one or more areas of the wall, in particular in the areas in which a pulsation of the shock boundary layer between fluid and wall occurs, so that the wall of the diffuser is weakened the inlet openings remain small and, in addition, this pulsation is deliberately influenced or suppressed by conveying the energizing fluid into the region or regions of the wall in which pulsation of the impact boundary layer occurs.
- the channel has an annular cross section, so that diffusers with an inner shell and a convexly curved outer shell can be operated safely and with good efficiency at all operating points.
- the fluid enters the diffuser in the axial direction and / or has a swirl in the inlet cross section and / or the fluid exits the diffuser in the radial direction, so that the installation of a diffuser according to the invention between a steam turbine and a Condenser with various inflow and outflow conditions is easily possible.
- the diffuser is rotationally symmetrical.
- At least one pressure sensor on the diffuser, which measures the pressure of the fluid transiently, so that the occurrence of pulsations can be continuously monitored during operation.
- a control device which determines the amplitudes and frequencies of the pressures measured by the pressure sensor and which triggers the delivery of the energizing fluid into the diffuser if the amplitudes exceed a threshold value within a predetermined frequency range. This ensures that whenever pulsations occur, energizing fluid is conveyed into the diffuser and, on the other hand, the energizing fluid is not conveyed if no pulsations are measured. Thereby The efficiency of the diffuser according to the invention is in no way impaired at the operating times when there are no pulsations, and there is only a very slight reduction in the operating times during which a pulsation occurs
- the efficiency of the diffuser according to the invention is therefore as good in all operating states as the efficiency of a diffuser according to the prior art, as long as there are no pulsations. If pulsations occur in a diffuser according to the prior art, the efficiency of the diffuser according to the invention, in which no pulsations occur, is significantly better.
- the operational reliability of a turbine equipped with a diffuser according to the invention is significantly increased compared to the prior art.
- the energizing fluid has the same or similar consistency as the fluid, so that, for example, by branching off a partial steam flow in the medium or low-pressure part of the upstream steam turbine, an energizing fluid is available inexpensively and without any equipment outlay, the parameters ( Pressure, temperature, mass flow) can be precisely matched to the application.
- steam from a bleed line of a steam turbine can be used as the energizing fluid.
- the energizing fluid is compressed air, so that the pulsations can be suppressed without interfering with the turbine or another apparatus upstream of the diffuser according to the invention.
- a turbine with a housing, with an impeller and with a diffuser, wherein the housing is flowed through by a fluid, the fluid driving the impeller and the diffuser, viewed in the flow direction of the fluid, behind the Impeller is arranged, characterized in that the diffuser is a diffuser according to one of the preceding claims. All of the above-mentioned advantages of the diffuser according to the invention are thus also used in a turbine according to the invention.
- the turbine is a steam turbine, a gas turbine or a Francis turbine, so that, regardless of the different fluids with which the turbines are operated, a pulsation in the diffuser of the steam or gas turbine or in the intake manifold the Francis turbine is omitted.
- the object mentioned at the outset is also achieved according to the invention by a method for preventing impact boundary layer pulsations in a diffuser, in which the pressure of the fluid in the diffuser is measured transiently,
- Energizing fluid is conveyed into the diffuser when the amplitudes exceed a threshold value within a predetermined frequency range.
- This method according to the invention makes it possible that whenever an operating point is approached in which pulsations occur, these are measured, recognized and suppressed by conveying energizing fluid into the diffuser. So u can. a. Existing diffusers in which pulsations occur are also monitored and the pulsations are prevented by conveying energizing fluid into the diffuser.
- FIG. 1 shows a longitudinal section through a low-pressure steam turbine
- Fig. 2 a partial section through an impeller
- Diffuser outlet 5: Measured pulsation amplitudes of a diffuser according to the prior art plotted against the frequency; 6: Measured pulsation amplitudes of a diffuser according to the invention plotted against the
- a low pressure (LP) steam turbine 1 with a horizontally extending shaft 3 is shown in longitudinal section. Via an inflow line 5, the steam indicated below by an arrow 7 and referred to as fluid is conducted into the low-pressure steam tunnel.
- a guide device 9 is present in the turbine, which guides the fluid onto an impeller 11. After the fluid has flowed along the arrows 12 through a plurality of rows of guide blades 9 and the impeller 11 with a plurality of rows of blades and has thereby given work to the shaft 3, it reaches diffusers 13.
- the diffusers 13 each have a convexly curved outer shell 15 and a concavely curved inner shell 16 on.
- the fluid enters the diffuser 13 through a diffuser inlet 17 and exits through a diffuser outlet 18.
- the same components or designations are provided with the same reference symbols in all the figures.
- the impeller 11 shows an impeller 11 with a diffuser 13 in partial section.
- the main mass flow 31 of the fluid reaches the diffuser 13 through the impeller 11.
- a gap mass flow 35 reaches the diffuser through the gap 33 between the impeller 11 and the outer shell 15 of the diffuser 13.
- Flow velocity in the gap 33 is higher than that of the main mass flow 31 because the gap mass flow 35 is not braked by the impeller 11. After the last row of blades of shaft 3 there is an additional acceleration of the gap mass flow 35, which also takes place in a comparable form in a Laval nozzle.
- the outflow of the fluid from the turbine indicated by the impeller 11 into the diffuser 13 is influenced to a large extent by the interaction of the main mass flow 31 and the gap mass flow 35.
- the energizing effect exerted by the gap mass flow 35 on the flow boundary layer on the outer shell of the diffuser is particularly important for the axi-radial deflection of the fluid in the diffuser 13.
- the energization of the boundary layer by the gap mass flow 35 is the cause for the displacement of the separation area on the outer shell 15 in the direction of the diffuser outlet 18 and the reduction in the blocking effect which is induced as a result of the boundary layer detachment arises to look at.
- the blocking effect is greatest at the diffuser outlet 18.
- FIG. 2 the flow states arising during the axiradial deflection in the course of the diffuser 13 are shown schematically in a two-dimensional representation.
- the gap mass flow 35 reaches the diffuser 13 at supersonic speed (Ma> 1), while the main mass flow 31 reaches the diffuser 13 at subsonic speed (Ma ⁇ 1).
- the boundary between these two areas is represented by a sound line 39.
- the location of the compression shock is represented by a line 41.
- a detachment area 43 is shown on the outer shell 15, within which the flow of the fluid has detached from the outer shell 15.
- the gap energization has a disadvantageous effect on the diffuser flow in higher load cases, since it causes a shock-boundary layer pulsation, also called diffuser hum, on the wall contour under certain conditions of the static pressures in the diffuser inlet and outlet.
- This pulsation can successively influence the diffuser flow over a large area and cause undesirable blade vibrations in the impeller 11.
- the flow phenomenon of shock boundary layer pulsation is harmful in many aerodynamic areas Effect on the adjacent flow fields with the dependence of the flow states on the frequency and the amplitude of the pulsation is an important research topic.
- the extent of the efficiency losses caused by the pulsation and the harmful effect of the pulsation on the blades of the LP steam turbine 1 and the diffuser 13 can, according to the invention, be prevented by one or more openings 45 in the diffuser 13.
- An energizing fluid can be conveyed through the openings 45 into the diffuser via supply lines 46.
- any pulsations that may have occurred with any of the diffusers and operating states examined so far could be completely prevented.
- the pulsations can be detected by means of a non-stationary pressure sensor 47.
- FIG. 3 the division of the total mass flow 31 + 35 after flowing through a turbine and the diffuser 13 is shown in perspective in partial section. If one imagines this arrangement installed in the exhaust steam housing 19 from FIG. 1, it becomes clear that the total mass flow, as shown in FIG. 3, flows downwards after exiting the diffuser. For the part of the total mass flow that emerges from the diffuser 13 at the designation 0 °, this means that it splits into a right and a left part 48 and 49. The total mass flows emerging laterally at the designations 90 ° or 270 ° are deflected downward, as shown in FIG. 3. Due to the different outflow conditions over the circumference of the diffuser outlet, the pulsations that may occur over the circumference of the diffuser outlet are also not the same.
- FIG. 4 shows the results of the amplitudes, which were measured by means of transient pressure transducers DA1 and DA2 for a constant flow state.
- the recorded different curve shape of DA1 and DA2 is due to that different positions. 4 shows that the pulsation amplitudes measured with a first pressure transducer DA1 are the greatest in the range between 150 ° and 210 °.
- the measured values, shown in dashed lines, recorded with a second pressure transducer DA2 are somewhat lower overall, but also have a pronounced maximum in the range between 190 ° and 215 °.
- FIG. 5 shows an operating state of a diffuser according to the prior art, in which a pulsation with an amplitude of 9.9 mbar occurs at 382 Hz.
- the amplitude could be reduced to 2.4 mbar at 440 Hz in otherwise identical operating states and thus completely suppressed.
- the efficiency of the diffuser has decreased only to a very small extent compared to its efficiency at the nominal point.
- FIG. 7 shows another operating state of the turbine or of the diffuser, in which an amplitude of 15.8 mbar at 417 Hz was measured without conveying energizing fluid into the diffuser.
- the amplitude has decreased to 4.1 mbar at 425 Hz, which can also be seen as a complete suppression of the pulsation.
- the suppression of the pulsation can be completely suppressed by using a diffuser according to the invention or by using the method according to the invention. It is irrelevant whether the fluid is steam, flue gas, air or water, for example.
- the method according to the invention can be used for compressible and incompressible fluids of all kinds.
