Definitions
- the present invention relates to an arrangement between blade elements in a blade row in a gas turbine according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Turbine blades in particular low-pressure turbine blades, usually have radially inside and / or outside at least one shroud element which, when the blade row is mounted, adjoins the respectively adjacent shroud element of the respectively adjacent blade element, forming a substantially radial gap.
- a turbine blade element may at at least one axial edge, in particular the trailing edge, projecting on a first circumferentially facing side into the shroud element of the adjacent blade element protruding in the circumferential direction projection and on a second circumferentially facing side Having this projection receiving recess.
- Such a Shiplap comes about by covering a recess on a first circumferentially facing side of an adjacent blade element by a projection on the second circumferentially facing side of a blade element or by the engagement of the projection in the recess.
- a projection as well as a recess and the stepped overlapping or engagement area resulting during assembly are shown.
- the known regular Shiplap but can not completely seal the radial gap, which is why a significant amount of cooling air can escape through the stepped overlap region. This loss results in reduced turbine efficiency and performance.
- each blade element has at least one shroud element, as well as an adjacent to this shroud element and connected thereto, extending substantially in the radial direction with respect to a main axis of the blade row airfoil.
- the shroud element adjoins with mounted blade row with the two circumferentially facing sides to the respective adjacent shroud element of the respective adjacent blade element, forming a respective substantially radial gap.
- At least one blade element on a first circumferentially facing side has a circumferentially extending projection projecting into the shroud element of the adjacent blade element and at least one blade element has a recess receiving such a projection on a second side pointing in the circumferential direction.
- a stepped portion of the radial gap In the region of the projection or the recess there is a stepped portion of the radial gap, wherein the guide of the radial gap in the stepped portion is designed as a labyrinth seal.
- Out EP 1 221 539 A2 shows a partitioned wall structure in a gas turbine having a plurality of partial wall sections which are connected in the circumferential direction of a rotor of the gas turbine so as to form the wall structure with a substantially circular cross-section.
- the wall portions are fixed to an outer end or an inner end of a respective blade of the gas turbine or arranged with a predetermined gap between the outer end of the respective blade to form a passage wall for high-temperature gas together with a blade surface of the respective blade, wherein column or Gaps are provided between adjacent connected wall sections.
- the gas turbine engine shroud features a plurality of shroud segments and sealing fins, wherein the shroud segments are coupled to form a cylindrical shape by inserting one end portion of a sealing fin into a connecting portion of two adjacent shroud segments.
- the connecting portion has such a shape that the inside end portion of a shroud segment protrudes circumferentially as compared with the outside end portion.
- a first cladding segment adjacent to a second cladding segment has a connecting portion whose shape is complementary to the shape of the connecting portion of this cladding segment and the adjacent cladding segments are coupled such that there is a specific gap therebetween, with a perforating hole (2) a cooling air amount is provided in the connecting portion of the shroud segment.
- Out GB 2 166 805 A shows a gas turbine, which has an annular flow path for working gases, a flow path for cooling fluid, which is arranged radially opposite to the flow path of the working gases.
- a plurality of arcuate seal segments extend circumferentially about the axis, wherein at least a pair of seal segments define a first seal portion and a second seal portion circumferentially spaced from the first seal segment, thereby creating a groove which is variable in light of the operating conditions is designed.
- the invention is therefore based on the object, an improved Arrangement to provide, which has an improved sealing effect compared to the known from the prior art Shiplaps and thus reduces the leakage flow from the secondary air circuit.
- the core of the invention thus consists in providing a labyrinth seal between two adjacent shrouds of a blade element.
- a labyrinth seal is understood to mean either a substantially zig-zag overlay or engagement region of two adjacent shroud elements on turbine blades with more than two directional changes of the radial gap, or a superposition respectively engagement region, which is the synergistic one Effect of tapering and widening of the gap on the vortex formation of the air in the gap, or a superposition respectively engagement area of two adjacent shroud elements on turbine blades, having a design which incorporates a combination of the two principles.
- Labyrinth seals have hitherto been used only between two relatively movable parts, such as a stator element and a rotor element.
- the DE 39 40 607 and the US 5,222,742 disclose labyrinth sealing systems between rotating and stationary parts of a gas turbine.
- a labyrinth system results from the engagement of staggered long teeth in a stator seal member and staggered recesses in the rotor seal member, as well as staggered short teeth of the rotor seal member with staggered recesses of the stator seal member.
- the geometry and inclination of the teeth is varied, which leads to cracks that increase the kinetic energy of the teeth Throttle by varying flow of gas or steam.
- the WO 2005/028812 A1 discloses an array of stacked labyrinth seals to reduce the leakage current between fixed and rotating components, namely a segmented inner ring for supporting vanes in a stationary gas turbine.
- the present invention transfers in a non-obvious way the principle of the stepped labyrinth seal on the problem of sealing a gap between shrouds of adjacent blade elements against leakage current, in particular in connection with a Shiplap.
- the radial gap in the stepped region has at least one section in which the gap flow direction (S) runs counter to the direction of flow (A), according to the characterizing part of claim 1.
- a first embodiment of the labyrinth seal is characterized in that an arrangement is provided between blade elements in a row of blades in a gas turbine, wherein each blade element has at least one shroud element, as well as an adjacent to this shroud element and connected thereto, substantially in the radial direction with respect a main axis of the blade row extending airfoil.
- the shroud element adjoins the respectively adjacent shroud element of the respectively adjacent blade element with the blade row mounted with the two sides pointing in the circumferential direction, forming in each case a substantially radial gap.
- At least one blade element has, on a first side pointing in the circumferential direction, a circumferential direction projecting into the shroud element of the adjacent blade element extending projection and at least one blade element on a second side facing in the circumferential direction on a such a projection receiving recess.
- the guide of the radial gap in the stepped portion ie the Shiplap area, designed as a labyrinth seal.
- the radial gap in the stepped area more than two changes in direction, in particular four, six, or eight changes in direction.
- a change in direction is essentially a change in the gap current direction by 40 to 130 degrees, preferably by 60 to 110 degrees, particularly preferably substantially 80 to 100 degrees, but essentially understood in particular in the case of angular edge surfaces of the radial gap of about 90 degrees.
- the gap flow direction is defined as essentially always parallel to the shroud surface extending direction of the air flow in the radial gap, the air coming from the leading edge ago initially flows in the axial direction to the trailing edge, after a change in direction but quite well chamfered or can flow transversely to the direction of flow. In the case of rounded edge surfaces, it may well be preferable to provide direction changes of 40-80 degrees, or of 110-130 degrees.
- a change in direction has the purpose of diverting the gap flow of the air, which has unintentionally passed from the cooling air area into the radial gap, such that a pressure reduction takes place within the step, an additional flow resistance occurring within the step.
- eddies form in the cooling air, in particular during the Passage through tapered gap sections. These vortices are deflected at a next change of direction and migrate, since they can not enter the next gap section. Whirls that do not migrate in a direction opposite to the split flow dissolve at least partially when they enter an extended region of the gap.
- the cooling air itself prevents itself from moving in a uniform flow with high mass flow.
- less cooling air exits the radial gap at the axial edge.
- the radial gap in the shiplap region has angular and / or rounded edge surfaces. This means that when the direction changes, the individual sections can become angular or round at a certain angle.
- the edge surfaces may be concave and / or convex, and / or straight.
- the radial gap undergoes two equidirectional direction changes successively during its course in the stepped area.
- the radial gap has a zigzag shape in the stepped overlapping or engagement region.
- An arrangement with such a zigzag geometry of the radial gap can have at least one section in the stepped area, in which the gap flow direction runs counter to the direction of flow.
- the radial gap in the stepped area has at least one taper and / or at least one extension.
- a portion of the radial gap with such an extension may be at least 30% more, preferably at least 50% more than the width of the radial gap, or as the flow area at entering the stepped portion and may even be twice as large as the Flow cross section when entering the stepped area.
- the width of the radial gap or the flow cross section is 75% -50%, preferably 50% -25% of the gap width when entering the stepped area.
- an extension and / or a taper may be arranged before and / or after a change of direction.
- an extension in the gap current direction of the air is arranged in the radial gap after a taper.
- the range of directional change i. the region where the edge surfaces of the radial gap adjoin one another at a certain angle round or angularly or merge into one another, can be configured as an extension or taper compared to the inlet region of the air in the stepped region.
- such areas of change of direction have rounded triangular areas (seen from above with respect to the plane of the shroud surface).
- Another preferred embodiment of the present invention is a blade row of a gas turbine with an arrangement according to one of the previously described embodiments.
- the radial gap between two adjacent shroud elements on the shroud underside is covered by a sealing sheet.
- This sealing sheet impedes the entry of air from the cooling air area into the radial gap and thus initially minimizes the amount of air that is to be prevented by the inventive Shiplap arrangement at the exit from the gap, as they prevented by the sealing plate as possible at the entrance to the gap should be.
- Other gasket variants as an alternative to the gasket sheet are not excluded here.
- FIG. 1a shows an array of turbine blades as a rolled portion of a blade row in a plan view of the shroud surface 23, wherein three juxtaposed blade elements are shown.
- a blade element 1 has a shroud element 13, as well as a shroud blade 9 adjacent to and connected to this shroud element 13 and extending essentially in the radial direction with respect to a main axis of the blade row.
- the main axis of the blade row is that axis about which the shovel row is mounted defined circular cylinder is formed.
- the main axis of the blade row represents the axis about which the circularly cylindrical blades rotate.
- the airfoil 9 has an axially front blade leading edge 14 and an axially rear blade trailing edge 15.
- the blade leading edge 14 is in the direction of flow A of the first axial edge and the leading edge 11 ago flows around first by the air flow of working medium flowing in the working medium range R working fluid.
- the working medium then flows around the blade 9 and leaves it at the blade trailing edge 15 in the direction of the second axial edge or outflow edge 12.
- the shroud element 13 adjoins the respective adjacent shroud element 13 of the respectively adjacent blade element 1 with the blade rows mounted with the two sides 4, 5 pointing in the circumferential direction U, forming a substantially radial gap 3 FIG. 1a the vane elements 1 are each shown with only one shroud element 13. However, it is conceivable that the blade elements 1 have both a radially inner and a radially outer shroud element 13.
- Each blade element 1 has in the circumferential direction U a first, in the mounting direction M facing side 4 and a second, opposite to the mounting direction M facing page 5.
- the first, pointing in mounting direction M peripheral side 4 of a mounted blade element 1 comes to rest by mounting a next blade element 1 to the second, opposite to the mounting direction M facing peripheral side 5 of the next mounted blade element 1.
- the first mounted blade element 1, labeled with '1', as well as all the following blade elements 1, have a projection 6 pointing forwardly in the mounting direction M on an axial edge 12 on a first side 4 pointing in the circumferential direction U.
- the projection 6 extends in the circumferential direction U and into the circumferential direction U Shroud element 13 of the adjacent blade element 1 protrudes.
- the width B of the projection 6, Measured in the radial direction, a maximum of 40%, preferably not more than 20%, particularly preferably 5-15%, the overall depth T of a blade element 1.
- the depth T is defined by the axial distance between the leading edge 11 and the trailing edge 12 of the blade element. 1
- the projection 6 is to be understood as an offset in the circumferential direction U over a part of the axial course of a peripheral side 4 of a blade element 1.
- the projection 6 defines, with respect to the longitudinal axis L of an airfoil 9 between two adjacent mounted airfoil elements 1, a radial gap 3 stepped in a plane defined by the shroud surface 23 extending in a radial plane E between the adjacent sides 4, 5 of the individual airfoils Blade elements of the axial leading edge 11 of a blade element 1 to the axial trailing edge 12 extends.
- the juxtaposition of the blade elements 1 results in a stepped overlap or engagement region 2 between the shrouds of adjacent blade elements, whereby the radial gap 3 is sealed against the escape of cooling air. Without such a stepped arrangement 2, the air which has fallen into the radial gap 3 would escape unhindered from the opening 8 at the axial outflow edge 12 and thus be lost to the system.
- FIG. 1b shows a schematic detail view of a stepped overlap region according to the prior art.
- the resulting by the superposition of the shrouds of the two adjacent blade elements zigzag shape of the radial gap 3 can be seen.
- Such an arrangement with two changes in direction deflects the cooling air from the cooling air area into the radial gap 3 and contributes to the reduction of the leakage flow at the trailing edge of the blade elements.
- the conventional Shiplap according to the illustration therefore has two changes of direction in the region of an angle ⁇ of substantially 90 Degree on, with respect to the course of the radial gap 3.
- Such a stepped overlap region according to the prior art has a substantially constant gap width in the entire course of the radial gap in the stepped portion.
- FIG. 2 is the in FIG. 1a designated area 10 between two adjacent blade elements 1 at a first axial edge or leading edge 11 in a section perpendicular to the main axis of the blade row along in FIG. 1a designated line CC shown schematically. Shown is a section of two adjacent shroud elements 13 with their associated blades 9. In the figure, below the shroud elements 13, the cooling air area K is shown, and between the two blades 9, the area R of the working medium, characterized by the flow direction of the working medium A. The entrance of cooling air in the extending between the two cover sheets 13 radial gap 3 and the axial distribution of air in the radial gap 3 is made difficult in this embodiment by a sealing plate 17.
- the sealing plate 17 for sealing the radial gap 3 is in each gap 24 or step of two adjacent shrouds in the circumferential direction U of the shroud underside, or engages in these steps or recesses 24 and extends in its length along the radial gap 3 parallel to a plane defined by the shroud surface level to the stepped portion 2 at the trailing edge 12 of the shroud element 13.
- this sealing plate 17 has the function to intercept the radial component of the leakage flow, ie the radial Entry of cooling air from the cooling air area K in the radial gap 3 and thereby to prevent the first step to propagate the gap flow in the axial direction.
- this sealing sheet 17 does not completely cover the radial gap in the radial direction in the stepped region of the shiplap, which is why relatively much cooling air can still enter the radial gap 3 from the cooling air region K in the shiplap region 20. In the present invention, it is therefore, inter alia, to minimize the escape of the despite the sealing means, such as here the sealing plate 17, in the radial gap 3 advised air from the radial gap 3 addition.
- FIG. 3 shows various preferred embodiments of designed as labyrinth seals Shiplap arrangements, as a schematic representation of the in FIG. 1a designated section 20.
- Shiplaps with only a single gradation each Shiplaps with a multi-level labyrinth seal according to the invention shown, for example, with 4 changes in direction, but this does not exclude the presence of other labyrinth stages, ie 2 and more additional direction changes.
- the labyrinth seal sections of the radial gap 3 which run parallel or bevelled to the flow direction A alternate with those sections which are arranged transversely to the direction of flow A.
- FIG. 3a shows a zigzag shape of the radial gap 3 in the stepped portion 2.
- the zigzag shape of the gap 3 is achieved by two clockwise direction changes following two counterclockwise direction changes. This could alternatively be the other way around be the case.
- the present embodiment has four changes in direction of the radial gap 3, of which the first two direction changes seen from the leading edge 11 to the trailing edge 12 in the counterclockwise direction, and the next two are arranged in a clockwise direction.
- the air flows in the radial gap first parallel to the flow direction A, whereupon it flows for a portion transverse to the flow direction A, then opposite to the flow direction A, and then again flows transversely thereto, before it allows the geometry of the radial gap 3 again to flow in flow direction A.
- the gap flow S of the cooling air coming from the leading edge 11 and directed towards the outflow edge 12 occurs essentially parallel to the direction of flow A into the stepped area 2.
- the cooling air is deflected by about 90 degrees counterclockwise twice to then undergo a clockwise direction change of about 90 degrees twice before that cooling air which, despite the stepped arrangement as a labyrinth seal, does not prevent it from flowing to the trailing edge 12 was exiting at the trailing edge 12 from the radial gap 3.
- the FIG. 3a illustrated preferred embodiment has straight edge surfaces 21 which are adjacent to each other at certain angles ⁇ .
- the edge surfaces 21 could also border on each other by concave or convex edge surface shapes, so to speak under "round corners". It is also conceivable that the radial gap 3 in this arrangement could have changes in direction of other angular sizes ⁇ .
- FIG. 3b illustrated embodiment of a labyrinth seal also shows a in the stepped area 2 exclusively of straight edge surfaces 21 existing radial gap 3.
- the areas of change in direction are formed in this embodiment, all square.
- the split flow S of the cooling air occurs after entering the stepped portion 2 parallel to the direction of flow A at the first change in direction, which is approximately 90 degrees counterclockwise, in a tapered gap 18, whereupon the gap current by about 90 degrees in a clockwise direction in a extended area 19 is deflected and then in turn counterclockwise about 90 degrees in a constriction area 18 is deflected to then still a deflection by about 90 degrees in the counterclockwise direction, before the air after two more, substantially 90- directional changes in direction clockwise to the outlet opening 8 at the trailing edge 12 of the blade element 1 passes.
- Figure 3c is, as already in FIG. 3b , a labyrinth seal shown, in which the radial gap 3 in the transverse to the flow direction A arranged straight edge surfaces 21 is narrower than in the parallel to the flow direction A arranged -Rand vom 21.
- the stepped portion eight changes in direction, wherein in the Spaltstromcardi S first Two direction changes are arranged in the counterclockwise direction, followed by two clockwise direction changes, then two counterclockwise direction changes and finally two clockwise direction changes.
- the first turn of the counterclockwise direction is essentially 60-70 degrees.
- the second direction change in the counterclockwise direction is about 100-110 degrees, as well as the next, arranged in a clockwise direction change of the radial gap 3.
- the subsequent change in direction clockwise is again about 60-70 degrees, as well as the subsequent change in direction counterclockwise.
- This is followed by one Direction change counterclockwise by about 100-110 degrees and then two clockwise direction changes, of which the first is also about 100-110 degrees, and the second is about 60-70 degrees.
- the radial gap 3 has here, as shown, two successive upward (in the direction of flow) and two open at the bottom angular U-shaped sections.
- the zigzag shape of the labyrinth seals with more than two direction changes, as in FIGS. 3a-c are characterized, inter alia, by the fact that the gap flow S of the cooling air is forced according to the geometry of the labyrinth seal within the radial gap 3 in sections in a direction opposite to the total flow direction A and that the gap current S undergoes strong turbulence in the course of the stepped portion 2 wherein the quotient between the flow area or width of the radial gap in a taper and the flow area in the area following the taper affect the degree of turbulence.
- edge surfaces 21 can run parallel to the direction of flow A, transversely thereto or obliquely thereto, ie angled relative to the direction of flow.
- These edge surfaces 21 may be flat respectively straight, or rounded, either convex, ie formed as bulges in the radial gap or concave, ie as spacers from the radial gap 3 in the shroud element 13 into it.
- the edge surfaces 21 may adjoin one another angularly and / or along rounded edge surfaces 21 at specific angles.
- 3d figure shows an embodiment of a labyrinth seal, which has only two changes in direction, but in comparison to a simple Shiplap in addition to the two changes in direction of the radial gap 3 each having a region with an extension 19 and a taper 18 in the radial gap 3.
- Such a sequence of extension 19 in the direction of change of direction, followed by a tapered gap section 18 or vice versa also acts on the gap flow in a rate-throttling manner, which is desirable for the purpose of minimizing the leakage current.
- the two changes in direction one of which is counterclockwise and the second is clockwise, are both substantially approximately 90 degrees.
- the region of the first change of direction in the stepped region 2 is represented as a "rounded corner” or rounded expanded triangular region, while the second direction change region is designed as a conventional corner.
- An extension 19 is defined as a section of the radial gap 3 in the stepped region 2, in which the width of the radial gap 3, ie the flow cross-section, at least 30% more, preferably at least 50% more than the gap width D, or even twice as large is.
- a taper 18 is defined as a section of the radial gap 3 in the stepped region 2, in which the width of the radial gap 3, or the flow cross-section, is 50%, preferably 25-50% of the gap width D.
- the ratio between the gap width D and the width of the gap ie the quotient between the width of the gap in the taper 18 and the gap width D at the entrance of the radial gap 3 in the stepped portion 2 substantially between 1: 2 and 1: 4, but possibly up to 1: 8.
- the labyrinth seal after the in FIG. 3e illustrated embodiment has a majority of rounded edge surfaces 21.
- air in the gap flow S from the leading edge 11 in the direction of the trailing edge 12th Seen through a conical taper 26 shown in this embodiment flows into the stepped portion 2, it passes into an extended triangular region 25 with rounded edge surfaces 21, at the radial gap 3 bounding edge surfaces 21 of the air flow is significantly deflected and swirled, here by ca 130 degrees in the counterclockwise direction, before being urged by a direction change clockwise by about 50-60 degrees in a direction transverse to the direction of flow A of the blade elements 1 arranged tapered portion 18 of the radial gap 3.
- the cooling air flow flowing in the radial gap 3 undergoes a deflection of approximately 40-50 degrees in a clockwise direction into a second extension 19, in order then again to undergo a counterclockwise deflection of approximately 50-60 degrees into a rejuvenated gap region 18 before it can escape from the radial gap 3 at about 70-85 degrees clockwise at the trailing edge 12 after another deflection.
- the edge surfaces 21 bounding the radial gap 3 are angularly adjacent to each other via two changes of direction, while the radial gap 3 in the adjoining area of the stepped area 2 also has rounded adjacencies when the direction changes the edge surfaces 21 has.
- the radial gap 3 in the in FIG. 3f The labyrinth seal shown has a substantially uniform width D in a first half in relation to the direction of the gap flow S, while the second half has first along a flat surface a narrowed area 18 compared to the first labyrinth step and then an extension 19.
- gap current S is initially only slightly deflected at an angle ⁇ of about 30 degrees counterclockwise before he for the purpose of vortex formation and speed throttling a significant deflection of substantially 90 degrees in Counterclockwise, then steered clockwise a significant 130-140 degrees in a next section of the radial gap 3, and then again turn about 130-140 degrees, but this time counterclockwise, in a tapered gap region 18, which is substantially transversely to the direction of flow A, is forced to then expand in a conical enlargement 27 by an angle ⁇ of about 50-70 degrees again in a rounded triangular region 25, at the rounded edge surfaces 21 of the air flow to about 50-70 degrees to Outlet at the second axial edge or the trailing edge 12, is guided.
- FIG. 4 two contour representations of the absolute values of the flow velocities of the cooling air in the radial gap 3 in the stepped area 2 are shown.
- the figure shows in a 2D CFD representation calculation results of examinations of a first labyrinth seal ( Fig. 4a ) as defined in 3d figure illustrated embodiment, in comparison to a still further improved labyrinth seal ( Fig. 4b ).
- the marked areas 22, 28 are defined by their flow velocity.
- the region 22 is defined as a high flow velocity region because the flow velocity is higher than that of the air flow during entry into the stepped region 2.
- the entrance region into the stepped region 2 belongs to the region as well as the region of exit from the stepped region 2 28, which thus has a lower flow velocity than the region 22 Fig.
- the regions 28 have a flow velocity that is substantially twice as high as the flow velocity in said regions 28 of FIG Fig. 4b illustrated embodiment.
- Fig. 4a has only one region 22 with high flow velocity.
- the arrangement shown has three such regions 22 with high flow velocity, in which the cooling air has a higher flow velocity than the inlet velocity in the radial gap having.
- the flow velocity achieved in these areas however, in comparison to that in FIG. 4a designated area 22 about half as large flow velocities.
- Both the lower limit and the upper limit of the flow velocity in the designated area 22 of FIG Fig. 4a is substantially about twice the corresponding lower limit or upper limit of said areas 22 of Fig.
