  • 摘要: 动压式油气分离器因其高分离效率和结构紧凑,在新型航空发动机中得到广泛应用。通过构建可描述油气泡状流向分层流转变过程的CFD数值计算模型,对滑油箱内部油气分离规律进行研究。通过对滑油箱压力场、速度场及油气分离器速度分布规律的分析,阐明了滑油箱与油气分离器的耦合流场特征以及油气分离机理。研究结果显示,油气分离器内部形成了以强制涡为主体的兰金涡结构,通过在圆锥段开孔可使分离效率超过90%。此外,将滑油箱通风孔向油气分离器远端移动可有效提升通风效率。

     

    Abstract: Dynamic pressure oil-gas separators are widely used in new-type aero-engines due to their high separation efficiency and compact structure. A CFD numerical calculation model capable of describing the transition process from oil-gas bubbly flow to stratified flow was constructed to study the oil-gas separation law inside the oil tank. By analyzing the pressure field, velocity field of the oil tank and the velocity distribution law of the oil-gas separator, the coupled flow field characteristics of the oil tank and the oil-gas separator and the oil-gas separation mechanism were clarified. The research results show that a Rankine vortex structure with a forced vortex as the main body is formed inside the oil-gas separator, and the separation efficiency can exceed 90% by opening holes in the conical section. In addition, moving the ventilation hole of the oil tank to the far end of the oil-gas separator can effectively improve the ventilation efficiency.
