Abstract:
The research on the supercritical carbon dioxide (S-CO2) Brayton cycle has gradually become a hot spot in recent years. The off-design performance of turbine is an important reference for analyzing the variable operating conditions of the cycle. With the development of deep learning technology, the research of surrogate models based on neural network has received extensive attention. In order to improve the inefficiency in traditional off-design analyses, this research establishes a data-driven deep learning off-design aerodynamic prediction model for a S-CO2 centrifugal turbine, which is based on a deep convolutional neural network. The network can rapidly and adaptively provide dynamic aerodynamic performance prediction results for varying blade profiles and operating conditions. Meanwhile, it can illustrate the mechanism based on the field reconstruction results for the generated aerodynamic performance. The training results show that the off-design aerodynamic prediction convolutional neural network (OAP-CNN) has reduced the mean and maximum error of efficiency prediction compared with the traditional Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN). Aiming at the off-design conditions, the pressure and temperature distributions with acceptable error can be obtained without a CFD calculation. Besides, the influence of off-design parameters on the efficiency and power can be conveniently acquired, thus providing the reference for an optimized operation strategy. Analyzing the sensitivity of AOP-CNN to training data set size, the prediction accuracy is acceptable when the percentage of training samples exceeds 50%. The minimum error appears when the training data set size is 0.8. The mean and maximum errors are respectively 1.46% and 6.42%. In summary, this research provides a precise and fast aerodynamic performance prediction model in the analyses of off-design conditions for S-CO2 turbomachinery and Brayton cycle.
