Numerical Investigation of Fuel-Rich Gas Properties Effects on Plates Fatigue Performances Subjected to Thermal Shock
To solve the severe thermal fatigue problem faced by air turbo rocket turbine guide vane under fuelrich gas environment
a quasi-static thermoelastic coupling model of a homogeneous plate was established according to actual working condition of turbine guide vane. The effect of gas properties on the temperature rise characteristics
stress and life changes of the plate subjected to thermal shock was obtained through Laplace transform and residue theorem. The results agree well with the three-dimensional thermal-flow coupling calculation results of turbine guide vane. The results show that the main components of fuel-rich gas is hydrogen
which has high specific heat at constant pressure and thermal conductivity. As a result
the convective heat transfer coefficient is more than twice that of lean-burn gas under the same conditions. And the heat flux
temperature rise rate
and equilibrium temperature of the plate are higher than those of leanburn gas plate under the same conditions. These cause the temperature gradient inside the plate to increase under fuel-rich gas environment. Due to the high temperature and large temperature gradient under fuel-rich gas environment
the peak thermal stress to increase by 80% and its life is shortened by 32% compared to the plate under lean-burn gas conditions. During the thermal shock
the stress increases rapidly to the peak and then decreases gradually. The main determinant of the peak thermal stress is the gas properties
and the post-peak is mainly affected by coolant temperature. Additionally
The influence of gas properties on peak thermal stress and life decreases with the increase of plate thickness.
