An experimental study on three-dimensional icing characteristics of compressor blades in the low-temperature atmospheric environment
Gas turbine blade icing is a significant issue that poses a serious threat to the safe operation of the equipment. Current research on three-dimensional blade icing has limitations that hinder the advancement of icing mechanisms and gas turbine design theories. This study combines a traditional wind tunnel with a low-temperature natural environment to obtain experimental data on the icing characteristics of three-dimensional compressor inlet guide vanes. A comparative analysis was conducted to examine the effects of environmental temperature and liquid water content on the blade icing shape, icing area, icing thickness, and icing limits. The experimental results show that ice accretion on the blades mainly concentrates on the leading edge, trailing edge, and pressure side. And the blade icing exhibits significant three-dimensional characteristics. In the spanwise direction, the total icing area rate of the blade exhibits a high-middle and low-end characteristic. In the chordwise direction, the icing thickness exhibits a trend of being thicker at the leading edge, gradually thinning along the pressure side, and increasing again at the trailing edge. When liquid water content is 2.75 g/m3, the maximum total icing area rate increases by approximately 114.05 % as the temperature decreases from −5.5 °C to −9.5 °C. When the temperature is −3°C, the maximum total icing area rate increases by approximately 9.41 % as liquid water content rises from 0.63 g/m3 to 0.99 g/m3. The research results can provide an experimental foundation for further studies on the icing mechanisms and anti-icing methods of compressor inlet guide vanes.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Heat and Fluid Flow welcomes high-quality original contributions on experimental, computational, and physical aspects of convective heat transfer and fluid dynamics relevant to engineering or the environment, including multiphase and microscale flows.
Papers reporting the application of these disciplines to design and development, with emphasis on new technological fields, are also welcomed. Some of these new fields include microscale electronic and mechanical systems; medical and biological systems; and thermal and flow control in both the internal and external environment.
