Numerical Investigation for Effect of Coolant Inlet Arrangements on Performance of Turbine Rotor-Stator Cavity
The flow and sealing performance of secondary rotor-stator cavity was numerically investigated with SST turbulence model. The effect of coolant inlet position on cavity flow
cooling performance and mainstream ingestion phenomenon were analyzed. The results show that the influence of coolant inlet position on the flow in upstream cavity is significant
while that in downstream cavity is slight. As the coolant inlet position moves toward upstream
the swirl ratio in the upstream cavity increases
the swirl ratio at the inlet of interstage labyrinth seal decreases
the pressure ratio and mass flow through interstage labyrinth seal decrease
the mass flow of mainstream ingestion on the upstream rim seal decreases
and meanwhile the cooling performance of the upstream cavity walls increases; whilst the swirl ratio on the downstream rim seal decreases
correspondingly the flow losses of mainstream flow increase
while the swirl ratio and walls cooling performance in the downstream cavity slightly depends on the coolant inlet position. As the mass flow rate of cooling air increases
the difference in cooling performance of the upstream cavity walls set in different coolant inlet positions decreases.
