Definitions

  • This invention is directed generally to turbine airfoils, and more particularly to cooling systems in hollow turbine airfoils.
  • gas turbine engines typically include a compressor for compressing air, a combustor for mixing the compressed air with fuel and igniting the mixture, and a turbine blade assembly for producing power.
  • Combustors often operate at high temperatures that may exceed 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Typical turbine combustor configurations expose turbine blade assemblies to these high temperatures.
  • turbine blades must be made of materials capable of withstanding such high temperatures.
  • turbine blades often contain cooling systems for prolonging the life of the blades and reducing the likelihood of failure as a result of excessive temperatures, as shown in Figures 1 and 2.
  • Serpentine cooling channels sometimes suffer from regions of higher temperature and poor flow distribution in the turns, as shown in Figures 3 and 4. Often times, the flow of cooling fluid in the channels immediately downstream of turns suffer from low speed fluid and, thus, increased temperatures near the inner corner of the turns.
  • a turbine airfoil with a cooling system including a serpentine cooling channel with at least one flow splitter forming inner and outer cooling fluid flow paths in at least one turn is disclosed.
  • the inner and outer cooling fluid flow paths created in one or more turns in the serpentine cooling channel create better flow characteristics in the turns.
  • the inner cooling fluid flow path created by the flow splitter may reduce the recirculation zone for better heat transfer in the serpentine cooling channel.
  • the cooling system may also include a flow splitter in a turn immediately upstream from the trailing edge that extends along a portion of the trailing edge to prevent cooling fluids from being exhausted through the trailing edge prematurely.
  • the serpentine cooling channel may be an improved serpentine cooling channel, such as, but not limited to being a three pass channel in a large turbine blade, such as, but not limited to, a Row 3 blade.
  • the flow splitters may separate cooling fluid flow into inner and outer fluid flow paths upstream of the turn.
  • the cooling fluid such as, but not limited to air, in the inner fluid flow path may stay adjacent the inner rib and reduce the recirculation zone for better heat transfer.
  • the flow splitter in the second turn which may be near the root of the airfoil may extend radially outward to prevent cooling fluid from prematurely exiting through the exhaust orifices in the trailing edge.
  • the flow splitter in the second turn is also configured to connect the inner ceramic core for the inner cooling fluid flow path with the outer ceramic core for the outer flow path during the casting process to have a better manufacturing yield by improving the ceramic core structural rigidity.
  • the serpentine cooling channel with flow splitters provides improved cooling fluid flow patterns, improves heat transfer and reduces the maximum temperature within the airfoil.
  • the turbine airfoil may include a generally elongated, hollow airfoil having a leading edge, a trailing edge, a pressure side, a suction side on an opposite side of the airfoil from the pressure side, a tip section at a first end, a root coupled to the airfoil at an end generally opposite the first end for supporting the airfoil and for coupling the airfoil to a disc, and a cooling system formed from at least one cavity in the elongated, hollow airfoil.
  • the cooling system may include a serpentine cooling channel formed from one or more first legs in fluid communication with a downstream second leg via a first turn. The first leg and second leg may direct cooling fluid flow in generally opposite directions to each other.

  • the serpentine cooling channel of the cooling system may also include a third leg in fluid communication with the second leg via a second turn.
  • the second leg and third leg may direct cooling fluid flow in generally opposite directions to each other.

  • a trailing end of the second turn flow splitter may extend radially outward further than a leading end of the at least one second turn flow splitter.
  • the trailing end of the second turn flow splitter may extend into the third leg a distance of at least 15 percent of a span height of the generally elongated, hollow airfoil.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne une aube de turbine (10) dotée d'un système de refroidissement (12) comprenant un canal de refroidissement en serpentin (14) avec au moins un diviseur de flux (16) formant des voies d'écoulement de fluide de refroidissement interne et externe (18, 20) dans au moins une spire (22) Les voies d'écoulement de fluide de refroidissement interne et externe (18, 20) créées dans une ou plusieurs spires (22) à l'intérieur du canal de refroidissement en serpentin (14) génèrent de meilleures caractéristiques d'écoulement dans les spires (22). La voie d'écoulement de fluide de refroidissement interne (18) créée par le diviseur de flux (16) peut réduire la zone de recirculation pour un meilleur transfert de chaleur dans le canal de refroidissement en serpentin (14). Le système de refroidissement (12) peut également comprendre un diviseur de flux (16) dans une spire immédiatement en amont à partir du bord de fuite (24) qui s'étend le long d'une partie du bord de fuite (24) pour empêcher les fluides de refroidissement d'être évacués par le bord de fuite (24) de façon prématurée.
