Embedded Improvement of Ventilation Structure in Aircraft Engine Bearing Cavity and Study on Oil Gas Two Phase Flow Characteristics
In order to study the oil-gas two-phase flow characteristics in the bearing chamber of an aeroengine and im-prove the oil return effect of lubricating oil,an embedded improvement scheme was proposed for the ventilation structure of the bearing chamber.A two-phase flow solution model for the bearing chamber based on the Euler-Euler method was es-tablished,and the flow characteristics and oil return characteristics of conventional bearing chamber and embedded im-provement bearing chamber under different operating conditions were analyzed.The results show that after the embedded improvement of the ventilation structure of the conventional bearing chamber,the lubricating oil is blocked by the embed-ded ventilation wall.Under the action of air shear force and gravity,the lubricating oil on the right side of the ventilation port moves downstream through the ventilation port,reducing the amount of lubricating oil flowing out of the ventilation port and increasing the amount of lubricating oil flowing out of the return port,thus significantly improving the return oil effi-ciency.As the embedding depth increases,the lubricating oil flowing out of the vent is further suppressed,the volume frac-tion of the lubricating oil in the chamber further increases,and the return oil efficiency is further improved.Compared with conventional bearing cavities,when the oil flow rate is 200 L/h and the rotation speed is 15 000 r/min,the embedded im-provement scheme has the most significant improvement in oil return efficiency,and the oil return efficiency is increased by 16.72％,18.80％,and 20.19％respectively for the improved schemes with embedded depths of 8 mm,10 mm,and 12 mm.
