Abstract:

The first-stage rotor squealer tip is a key area in the gas turbine for both aerodynamic performance and heat transfer characteristics, which should be carefully designed. However, there are many uncertainties in the geometrical parameters and operating environment of the blade tip, which makes the actual aerothermal performance of the turbine blade tip significantly deviate from the design value in actual use progress. The heat transfer characteristics and aerodynamic performance uncertainty quantification analysis system of the turbine blade squealer tip was established. The non-embedded polynomial chaos expansion method, integrated with Smolyak Sparse grid, Sobol Indic technology for the uncertainty quantification analysis system was developed. It was investigated and quantified that the effects of the tip clearance, mainstream inlet total temperature and blowing ratio uncertainty on the aerothermal performance of blade squealer tip. The uncertainty analysis results show that heat flux of squealer tip QTip basically conforms to the normal distribution when considering the uncertainty of tip clearance, mainstream inlet total temperature and blowing ratio. The statistical mean value of the QTip increased by 13.56% relative to the designed value and the probability of 10% deviation from the designed value is as high as 65.68%. The heat flux of squealer tip leading edge is more sensitive to uncertainty input by comparison to the trailing edge. The uncertainty of the heat flux on the blade surface QBlade near the leading edge region is obviously larger than that of the trailing edge area. The minor deviations of the total pressure loss coefficients at the squealer tip within 0~80% axial chord regions is observed considering the tip clearance, mainstream inlet total temperature and blowing ratio uncertainty inputs. However, the uncertainty error of the total pressure loss coefficient at the squealer tip after the 80% axial chord regions would reach about 50%. The sensitive analysis results show that the mainstream inlet total temperature is the dominant variable in the uncertainty of the blade heat transfer performance, and its contribution to the uncertainty of QTip and QBlade is 93.87% and 98.32%, respectively. The uncertainty of the aerodynamic performance of the squealer tip is completely dominated by the tip clearance, and the uncertainty variance of it to the tip total pressure loss coefficient obtained as 86.44%. Compared with the main effect, the influence of the second-order interaction effect among the variables studied on the squealer tip aerothermal performance is almost negligible. © 2022, Editorial Department of Journal of Propulsion Technology.
