To reveal the influence of the wet air conditions caused by water injection pre-cooling on the temperature of the turbine air supply system,this paper focused on the influence evaluation of wet air on the temperature drop of pre-swirl air supply system under the conditions of total pressure of 150 kPa and total temperature of 450 K at the inlet of the pre-swirl air supply system based on Euler-Lagrangian multi-phase flow particle tracking method.The variation laws of both swirl ratio of the system and flow coeffi-cient of pre-swirl nozzle were analyzed in detail.The influence law of temperature drop of the pre-swirl air supply system was revealed.Results show that the water to steam ratio has a significant effect on the flow and temperature in pre-swirl nozzle as the water to steam ratio increases from 0 to 0.3.The airflow swirl ratio of pre-swirl nozzle increases from 1.36 to 1.43,while its pressure ratio decreases from 1.523 to 1.482,and its flow coefficient drops from 0.97 to 0.90,thus reducing the temperature drop of pre-swirl nozzle form 25.79 K to 22.28 K;in particular,the temperature drop of pre-swirl air supply system is re-duced from 12.07 K to 11.03 K.It can be concluded that the flow resistance in the system will increase under the system inlet conditions with humidity so as to limit the cooling ability of the pre-swirl air supply system.Therefore,the air supply pressure of the system will be required higher at the humidity conditions when the air supply temperature of the turbine blade is constant.
