Description

Technisches GebietTechnical field

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung sowie ein Verfahren zur Kühlung einer Plattform einer Turbinenschaufel, die einen Schaufelfuß, ein Schaufelblatt mit einer An- und Abströmkante sowie eine Schaufelspitze mit einer Plattform vorsieht und die radial von wenigstens einem Kühlkanal wenigstens teilweise durchsetzt ist, der mit wenigstens einem, über eine Austrittsöffnung an der Plattform austretenden Austrittskanal verbunden ist.The invention relates to a device and a method for cooling A platform of a turbine blade, which has a blade root, an airfoil a leading and trailing edge and a blade tip with a platform and which is at least partially penetrated radially by at least one cooling channel, the one with at least one emerging from the platform via an outlet opening Exit channel is connected.

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Kühlprobleme der vorstehend genannten Art treten insbesondere bei Turbinenschaufeln auf, die in Gasturbinenanlagen eingesetzt werden. Insbesondere in den einzelnen Gasturbinenstufen werden die Turbinenschaufeln von den innerhalb der Brennkammer erzeugten Heißgasen umströmt. Um Überhitzungen bei in Betrieb befindlichen Turbinenschaufeln zu vermeiden spielt der Aspekt der gezielten Kühlung von Gasturbinenschaufeln bei der Konzeption und Auslegung derartiger Anlagen eine große Rolle. Üblicherweise wird zur Kühlung ein Teil der innerhalb der Verdichterstufe vorkomprimierten Luft zu Kühlzwecken gezielt abgeleitet und somit dem weiteren Verbrennungsvorgang entzogen. Vielmehr gelangt die Kühlluft über Kühlkanalsysteme, die sowohl in rotierenden als auch stationären Anlagenkomponenten vorgesehen sind, in den Bereich der Turbinenstufen um die dort, den Heißgasen unmittelbar ausgesetzten Anlagenkomponenten zu kühlen. Zur Kühlung der auf der Rotoranordnung, in einer Vielzahl von axial hintereinander angeordneten Laufschaufelreihen aufsitzenden Laufschaufeln, weisen die Laufschaufeln radiale Kühlkanäle auf, durch die von Seiten der Rotoranordnung eingespeiste Kühlluft längs zu den Turbinenschaufelblättern geführt wird, die durch entsprechend an der Laufschaufeloberfläche vorgesehene Kühlluftöffnungen austritt und sich mit den Heißgasen vermischt.Cooling problems of the type mentioned above occur in particular Turbine blades that are used in gas turbine plants. In particular In the individual gas turbine stages, the turbine blades are separated from the inside flows around the combustion chamber generated hot gases. To prevent overheating when in operation Avoiding existing turbine blades plays the aspect of targeted cooling of gas turbine blades in the conception and design of such systems a major role. Usually, part of the cooling within the Compressor stage specifically derived and thus compressed air for cooling purposes withdrawn from the further combustion process. Rather, the cooling air passes over Cooling channel systems, both in rotating and stationary Plant components are provided in the area of the turbine stages around the there to cool the system components directly exposed to the hot gases. to Cooling of the rotor assembly, in a variety of axially one behind the other arranged rows of moving blades, have the Blades radial cooling channels through which from the side of the rotor assembly Cooling air fed in is guided longitudinally to the turbine blades, which are passed through cooling air openings correspondingly provided on the blade surface emerge and mixes with the hot gases.

In einigen Fällen weisen Turbinenschaufeln an ihrer radial, der Rotoranordnung abgewandten Seite Plattformen oder sogenannte Deckbänder auf, um Leckageströme, die sich zwischen den Turbinenschaufelspitzen und den feststehenden Anlagenkomponenten ausbilden können, zu minimieren. Ebenso tragen derartige Plattformen und Deckbänder dazu bei, Vibrationen, die sich während des Betriebes der Gasturbine entlang der Turbinenschaufeln ausbilden, effektiv zu dämpfen.In some cases, turbine blades point radially to the rotor assembly facing side platforms or so-called shrouds to Leakage flows between the turbine blade tips and the to train fixed system components. As well such platforms and shrouds contribute to vibrations that occur train along the turbine blades during operation of the gas turbine, dampen effectively.

Zur Kühlung derartiger Plattformen ist in der US 5,482,435 ein Kühlkanalsystem innerhalb einer Plattform beschrieben, durch das Kühlluft, geleitet wird und somit wirksam zur Kühlung der Plattform beiträgt. Die Kühlluft gelangt über einen mittig, radialwärts zur Turbinenschaufel orientierten Kühlkanal in den Bereich der Plattform, in dem die Kühlluft über zwei Teilkanäle nach außen gelangt. Die in der Plattform vorgesehenen Teilkühlkanäle erstrecken sich derart, dass die aus der Plattform austretende Kühlluft nahezu senkrecht zur Hauptströmungsrichtung der die Gasturbine durchströmenden Heißgase orientiert ist. Dies jedoch bewirkt einerseits, dass das Strömungsverhalten der Hauptströmung erheblich irritiert wird, wodurch der aerodynamische Wirkungsgrad nachhaltig beeinträchtigt wird. Zum anderen vermag die aus der Plattform austretende Kühlluft keinen Beitrag zum Energiegewinn bzw. zur verbesserten Energieumsetzung innerhalb der Gasturbine beitragen.A cooling duct system is used in US 5,482,435 for cooling such platforms described within a platform through which cooling air is conducted and thus effectively contributes to cooling the platform. The cooling air passes through a central cooling channel oriented radially to the turbine blade in the area of the platform, in which the cooling air escapes through two sub-channels. The one in the platform The partial cooling ducts provided extend in such a way that those from the platform emerging cooling air almost perpendicular to the main flow direction of the Gas turbine flowing hot gases is oriented. However, on the one hand, this causes that the flow behavior of the main flow is considerably irritated, causing the aerodynamic efficiency is permanently impaired. On the other hand, the cooling air emerging from the platform makes no contribution to the energy gain or contribute to improved energy conversion within the gas turbine.

Darstellung der ErfindungPresentation of the invention

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung sowie ein Verfahren zur Kühlung einer Plattform einer Turbinenschaufel gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 derart weiterzubilden, so dass zum einen eine effektive Kühlung der Plattform sichergestellt ist, zum anderen jedoch dafür gesorgt ist, dass die Hauptströmung, die unmittelbar an der Turbinenschaufel anliegt, möglichst wenig beeinträchtigt wird, um die aerodynamischen Verhältnisse innerhalb der Strömungsmaschine nicht zu verschlechtern. Vielmehr soll erreicht werden, dass neben der vorstehenden effektiven Kühlwirkung ein zusätzlicher Energiegewinn durch den Austritt der Kühlluft aus der Plattform erzielt werden kann.The invention has for its object a device and a method for Cooling a platform of a turbine blade according to the preamble of Claim 1 to develop such that, on the one hand, effective cooling of the Platform is ensured, but on the other hand it is ensured that the Main flow, which lies directly on the turbine blade, as little as possible is affected to the aerodynamic conditions within the Fluid machine not to deteriorate. Rather, it should be achieved that in addition to the above effective cooling effect, an additional energy gain can be achieved by the exit of the cooling air from the platform.

Die Lösung der der Erfindung zugrundeliegende Aufgabe ist im Anspruch 1 angegeben, der eine erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung beschreibt. Gegenstand des Anspruchs 8 ist ein erfindungsgemäßes Verfahren. Den Erfindungsgedanken vorteilhaft weiterbildende Merkmale sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche sowie der gesamten Beschreibung insbesondere unter Bezugnahme auf die Ausführungsbeispiele zu entnehmen.The object underlying the invention is achieved in claim 1 specified that describes a device according to the invention. Subject of Claim 8 is a method according to the invention. The idea of the invention Advantageously further developing features are the subject of the subclaims and entire description in particular with reference to the To see embodiments.

Erfindungsgemäß ist eine Vorrichtung zur Kühlung einer Plattform einer Turbinenschaufel, die einen Schaufelfuß, ein Schaufelblatt mit einer An- und Abströmkante, sowie eine Schaufelspitze mit einer Plattform vorsieht und die radial von wenigstens einem Kühlkanal wenigstens teilweise durchsetzt ist, der mit wenigstens einem, über eine Austrittsöffnung an der Plattform austretenden Austrittskanal verbunden ist, dadurch weitergebildet, dass der Austrittskanal angrenzend zur Austrittsöffnung eine Kanallängsrichtung aufweist, die in Projektion längs zur Turbinenschaufel weitgehend koparallel zur Strömungsrichtung eines die Austrittsöffnung unmittelbar überströmenden, lokalen Strömungsfeldes eines relativ an der Turbinenschaufel vorbeiströmenden Massenflusses verläuft.According to the invention, a device for cooling a platform is a Turbine blade, which has a blade root, a blade with an attachment and Trailing edge, as well as a blade tip with a platform and the radial is at least partially penetrated by at least one cooling channel, which with at least one exiting the platform via an outlet opening Outlet channel is connected, further developed in that the outlet channel has a longitudinal channel direction adjacent to the outlet opening, which is in projection along the turbine blade largely coparallel to the direction of flow of a Exit flow immediately overflowing local flow field of a relative mass flow flowing past the turbine blade.

Grundsätzlich ist die erfindungsgemäße Kühlvorrichtung an allen Turbinenschaufeln anwendbar, die mit einer Plattform versehen sind. Die mit der erfindungsgemäßen Maßnahme verbundenen Vorteile werden nachfolgend am Beispiel der Turbinenleitschaufel innerhalb einer Gasturbinenanlage näher erläutert. Selbstverständlich ist es jedoch möglich, die erfindungsgemäße Kühlvorrichtung auch an Plattformen von stationären Leitschaufeln einzusetzen. Die erfindungsgemäße Maßnahme ist nicht auf den Einsatz von Turbinenschaufeln innerhalb von Gasturbinenstufen von Gasturbinenanlagen beschränkt, sondern kann in allen Strömungsmaschinen angewendet werden, in denen entsprechende Kühlprobleme auftreten, beispielsweise innerhalb von Kompressoren oder ähnlichen Strömungsmaschinen.Basically, the cooling device according to the invention is on all turbine blades applicable, which are provided with a platform. The with the invention The advantages associated with the measure are shown below using the example of Turbine guide vane explained in more detail within a gas turbine system. Of course, however, it is possible to use the cooling device according to the invention also to be used on platforms of stationary guide vanes. The Measure according to the invention is not based on the use of turbine blades limited within gas turbine stages of gas turbine plants, but can be used in all turbomachines in which corresponding Cooling problems occur, for example within compressors or the like Turbomachinery.

Die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung des Austrittskanals innerhalb der Plattform, durch den Kühlluft durch eine Austrittsöffnung austritt, ist erfindungsgemäß derart orientiert, so dass die Kühlluft, die aus der Plattform ausströmt vorzugsweise die gleiche Strömungsrichtung besitzt, mit der die Hauptströmung der Heißgase die Turbinenschaufel und somit auch die Plattform selbst umströmt. Ist die Austrittsöffnung des Austrittskanals an der dem Turbinenschaufelblatt radial abgewandten Plattformoberseite vorgesehen, so verläuft vorzugsweise der Kühlkanal leicht schräg geneigt zur Plattformoberseite. Alternativ kann die Austrittsöffnung an der stromabgewandten Abschlusskante der Plattform angebracht sein, so dass die aus der Plattform ausströmende Kühlluft koparallel zu den die Plattform umströmende Heißgase orientiert ist. In allen Fällen befindet sich die Austrittsöffnung des Kühlkanals an der Plattform vorzugsweise stromab zur Anströmkante der Turbinenschaufel, so das gewährleistet ist, dass ein möglichst langer Kühlkanalabschnitt innerhalb der Plattform verläuft, so dass eine möglichst effektive Kühlwirkung erzielt werden kann.The inventive arrangement of the outlet channel within the platform, by the cooling air exits through an outlet opening is oriented according to the invention in such a way so the cooling air that flows out of the platform is preferably the same Has flow direction with which the main flow of hot gases Turbine blade and thus also flows around the platform itself. Is the Outlet opening of the outlet channel on the turbine blade radially provided facing away from the top of the platform, preferably runs the Cooling duct inclined slightly to the top of the platform. Alternatively, the Outlet opening attached to the downstream edge of the platform be so that the cooling air flowing out of the platform is coparallel to the die Hot gases flowing around the platform is oriented. In all cases there is Outlet opening of the cooling channel on the platform preferably downstream Leading edge of the turbine blade so that it is guaranteed that one is possible long cooling channel section runs within the platform, so that one if possible effective cooling effect can be achieved.

Kühlungvorkehrungen innerhalb der Plattform, die im Falle von Turbinenlaufschaufeln aufgrund ihrer radialen Beabstandung zur Rotationsachse hohen Zentrifugalkräften unterworfen ist, tragen einen wichtigen Beitrag dazu bei, das Kriechverhalten des Schaufelmaterials im Bereich der Plattform positiv zu beeinflussen, d.h. Materialverwerfungen- bzw. deformationen durch Erweichen des Materials unter gleichzeitiger Einwirkung hoher Zentrifugalkräfte werden durch wirkungsvolle Kühlmaßnahmen reduziert bzw. eliminiert. Durch die erfindungsgemäße Kühlmaßnahme innerhalb der Plattform kann Materialkriechen erheblich eingeschränkt werden.Cooling arrangements within the platform, which in the case of Turbine blades due to their radial spacing from the axis of rotation subjected to high centrifugal forces make an important contribution to the creep behavior of the blade material in the area of the platform increases positively influence, i.e. Material warping or deformation by softening the Materials under the influence of high centrifugal forces are effective cooling measures reduced or eliminated. Through the Cooling measure according to the invention within the platform can creep material be significantly restricted.

Der mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Kühlkanalsystem innerhalb der Plattform verbundene Hauptvorteil ist jedoch der zusätzliche Energiegewinn, der mit dem gezielten koparallelen Strömungsaustritt der Kühlluft relativ zur, die Turbinenschaufel umströmenden Hauptströmung, erzielt werden kann. So konnte nachgewiesen werden, dass die Kühlluft, die aus dem erfindungsgemäß orientierten Kühlkanal durch die Austrittsöffnung an der Plattform ausströmt, zu einem messbaren Energiegewinn beiträgt, der sich durch das Zusammenspiel eines zusätzlichen Impulsbeitrages zum Antrieb der Turbinenschaufel und einer vergleichsweise vernachlässigbaren Irritation bzw. Störung der Hauptströmung der die Turbinenschaufel umströmenden Heißgase ergibt.The one with the cooling channel system according to the invention within the platform However, the main advantage associated with this is the additional energy gain that comes with the targeted coparallel flow exit of the cooling air relative to the turbine blade mainstream flowing around, can be achieved. So it could be proven be that the cooling air coming from the cooling duct oriented according to the invention flows out through the outlet opening on the platform to a measurable Contributes to energy gain, which is characterized by the interaction of an additional Impulse contribution to the drive of the turbine blade and one comparatively negligible irritation or disturbance of the main flow of the Turbine blade flows around hot gases.

Vorzugsweise sind eine Vielzahl von entsprechend orientierten Kühlkanälen innerhalb einer Plattform eingebracht, wodurch sich die vorstehend beschriebenen vorteilhaften Auswirkungen bezüglich Kühlwirkung und zusätzlichen Energiebeitrag steigern lassen. Weitere Details bezüglich möglicher Ausführungsbeispiele können den nachstehenden Ausführungsbeispielen detailliert entnommen werden.A plurality of appropriately oriented cooling channels are preferred introduced within a platform, whereby the above described beneficial effects in terms of cooling effect and additional energy contribution let increase. Further details regarding possible exemplary embodiments can be found can be found in detail in the following exemplary embodiments.

Zur Herstellung der erfindungsgemäß ausgebildeten Plattform eignen sich eine Vielzahl an sich bekannter Techniken um den Kühlkanal bzw. eine Vielzahl entsprechend orientierter Kühlkanäle in die Plattform einzubringen. Besonders eignen sich hierzu EDM-Verfahren (Electro-Discharge-Machining) oder auch konventionelle Bohrtechniken, unter Einsatz von Laserstrahl, elektrochemischen Verfahren sowie Wasserstrahltechniken.A are suitable for producing the platform designed according to the invention A variety of known techniques around the cooling channel or a variety bring appropriately oriented cooling channels into the platform. Especially EDM processes (Electro-Discharge Machining) are suitable for this or also conventional drilling techniques, using laser beam, electrochemical Processes and water jet techniques.

Selbstverständlich ist es auch möglich, Plattformen von Turbinenschaufeln an ihren jeweiligen Turbinenschaufelfüßen mit entsprechend orientierten Kühlkanälen zu versehen. Gleichwohl der Aspekt des zusätzlichen Energiegewinns bei Plattformen im Schaufelfußbereich eine nur untergeordnete Rolle spielt, beeinträchtigt die ausströmende Kühlluft durch die entsprechenden Austrittsöffnungen die Hauptströmung auch im Bereich der Schaufelfüße nicht bzw. nur unwesentlich.Of course, it is also possible to attach turbine blades to their platforms respective turbine blade feet with appropriately oriented cooling channels Mistake. Nevertheless, the aspect of additional energy gain from platforms plays only a minor role in the blade root area, affects the outflowing cooling air through the corresponding outlet openings Main flow in the area of the blade roots either not or only insignificantly.

Laufschaufel 5 senkrecht längs zur Zeichenebene vom Betrachter abgewandt erstreckt. Durch die entsprechende Anstellung der Leit- bzw. Laufschaufeln relativ zur Hauptströmung 6, die die Turbinenschaufelanordnung axialwärts durchströmt, wird die Hauptströmung 6 durch die Turbinenschaufelblätter aus der reinen Axialrichtung umgelenkt. So ist die Hauptströmung 6 unmittelbar nach Durchströmen der Leitschaufelreihe 1 in der Umfangsrichtung nach oben gerichtet, wohingegen die Hauptströmung nach Umströmen der Laufschaufelreihe 2 entgegen der Drehrichtung abgelenkt wird. Die Neigung der Strömungsrichtung bezogen zur Axialrichtung wird unmittelbar stromab einer Turbinenschaufelreihe im Wesentlichen durch die Neigung der Turbinenschaufelblätter relativ zur Hauptströmung und der Umfangsgeschwindigkeit bedingt. Zur Kühlung der Plattformen 3 sind Kühlkanäle 7, vorzugsweise im Bereich der stromab gerichteten Endkante 8 der Plattformen 3 derart angeordnet, so dass Kühlluft parallel zur Hauptströmung 6 aus den Kühlkanälen 7 entweicht. Hierzu sind die Längsachsen der Kühlkanäle 7 parallel zum Turbinenschaufelblatt im Bereich unmittelbar stromauf zur Abströmkante 9 angeordnet.In Figure 1 is a plan view of an axial arrangement consisting of a Guide vane row 1 and one downstream in the flow direction Blade row 2 shown. In detail, the platforms 3 are one Guide vane 4 and a moving blade 5 can be seen, the guide vane 4 or blade 5 facing away from the viewer perpendicular to the plane of the drawing extends. Through the corresponding adjustment of the guide vanes or blades relatively to the main flow 6, which flows axially through the turbine blade arrangement, the main flow 6 through the turbine blades from the pure Redirected axial direction. So is the main flow 6 immediately after flowing through the guide vane row 1 directed upward in the circumferential direction, whereas the Main flow after flow around the blade row 2 against the direction of rotation is distracted. The inclination of the flow direction in relation to the axial direction becomes immediately downstream of a turbine blade row essentially due to the inclination the turbine blades relative to the main flow and the Circumferential speed conditional. For cooling the platforms 3 there are cooling channels 7, preferably in the region of the downstream end edge 8 of the platforms 3 arranged such that cooling air parallel to the main flow 6 from the Cooling channels 7 escapes. For this purpose, the longitudinal axes of the cooling channels 7 are parallel to Turbine airfoil in the area immediately upstream of the trailing edge 9 arranged.
