A scale model of a typical gas turbine exhaust diffuser is investigated experimentally. The test rig consists of a radial type, variable swirl generator which provides the exhaust flow corresponding to different gas turbine operating conditions. Static pressure measurements are carried out along the outer diffuser walls and along the hub of the annular part and along the centerline of the conical diffuser. Velocity distributions at several axial positions in the annular and conical diffuser have been measured using a Laser Doppler Velocimeter （LDV）. Pressure recovery coefficients and velocity profiles are depicted as a function of diffuser length for several combinations of swirl strength, tip flow and strut geometries. The diffuser without struts achieved a higher pressure recovery than the diffuser with struts at all swirl angle settings. The diffuser with cylindrical struts achieved a higher pressure recovery than the diffuser with profiled struts at all swirl angle seO.ings. Inlet flows with swirl angles over 18° affected the pressure recovery negatively for all strut configurations.展开更多
文摘通过分析模块化多电平变换器(modular multilevel converter,MMC)各部分之间的功率关系,提出一种MMC综合控制方案,包括直流母线电压控制和桥臂电容电压控制。该方案内环采用桥臂电流直接反馈控制,可实现交流侧电流、直流母线电流和内部环流的三重控制,不需要专门的环流控制器。该方案各桥臂电容电压控制基本相互独立,易于实现分布式控制。提出一种电流前馈控制方案,能有效减小电容电压的动态波动,提高动态响应速度。搭建了10 k VA三相MMC实验样机,实验结果验证了所提控制方案的可行性和有效性,并具有优良的动静态特性。
