摘要
In order to achieve the design goal of 'more compact axial gap, higher economy and lower noise' of modern aeroengine, the axial gap of low-pressure turbines is designed to be shorter. However, the shorter axial gap will seriously affect the aerodynamic performance and rotor/stator interaction noise of the turbines, and higher requirements and challenges are put forward for flow and noise control methods. Therefore, the large eddy simulation and FW-H equation were used to study the rotor/stator interaction noise and aerodynamic performance changes of a one-stage low-pressure turbine cascade when the trailing edge of upstream stator adopts short or long sawtooth structures under different axial gaps. The results show that the shortening of the axial gap will cause the deterioration of the aerodynamic performance of the low-pressure turbine, and the leading edge of the downstream rotor will experience a stronger adverse pressure gradient and 'negative jet' effect, thereby increasing the rotor/stator interaction noise. The micro-jet generated by the serrated structure of the trailing edge of the stator can suppress the 'negative jet' effect, eliminate separation bubbles, weaken the unsteady interference effect, improve aerodynamic performance, and reduce noise. In the case of short axial gap, the noise of long serrated trailing edge is lower. Compared with the base model, the long serrated trailing edge stator can reduce the wake loss by 47.71%, increase the mass flow by 8.65%, increase the total pressure recovery coefficient by 0.88 %, reduce the tonal noise of the 1BPF (Blade passing frequency) and 2BPF by 8.7dB and 11.8dB, respectively, and reduce the A-weighting sound pressure level by 9dB. In the case of shortening the axial gap, the trailing edge of the stator adopts a bionic sawtooth structure, which can achieve both aerodynamic performance improvement and noise reduction. © 2022, Editorial Department of Journal of Propulsion Technology.
