EFFECT OF FIRST-STAGE BLADE DESIGN ON PERFORMANCE

OF MARK 25 TORPEDO POWER PLANT

By Harold J. Schum and Jack W. Hoyt

SUMMARY

The effect of rotor-blade length, inlet angle, and shrouding was investigated with four different nozzles in a single-stage mod­ification of the Mark 25 aerial-torpedo pOW'er plant. The results obtained with the five special rotor configurations are compared with those of the standard first-stage rotor with each nozzle. Each nozzle-rotor combination was operated at nominal pressure ratios of 8, 15 (design), and 20 over a range of speeds from 6000 rpm to the design speed of 18,000 rpm. Inlet temperature and pressure conditions of 1000° F and 95 pounds per square inch gage, respectively, were maintained constant for all runs.

The increase in annular flOW' area, either through greater blade length or wider inlet angle, apparently resulted in the greatest increase in efficiency. The rotor having longer blades showed slightly greater efficiency than the blades with wider inlet angles with each nozzle at the high pressure ratios. Removal of the blade shroud caused a decrease in efficiency as expected. Only part of this decrease in efficiency was recovered when a close-fitting stationary shroud cap was placed over the active part of the blading.

The lI8Ximum brake efficiency of 0.54 was obtained when the longest blades (0.45 in.) were used with a cast sharp-edged-inlet nozzle (H). When this configuration was run as a two-stage unit with a standard second-stage rotor, hOW'ever, the resulting effi­ciency was less than that observed when both standard rotors were used. This decrease in efficiency was probably caused by less favorable outlet velocities from the 0.45-inch first-stage rotor due to the increase in flow area, thereby reducing the effective­ness of the second stage.

INTRODUCTION

At tlie request of the Bureau of Ordnance, Department of the Navy, the performance of a turbine from the Mark 25 aerial-torpedo power plant is being investigated at the NACA Lewis laboratory. Although the gas turbine is composed of two counterrotating stages, the second rotor is used primarily for balance. For possible application of high-pressure single-stage turbines to rocket acces­sory drive, a Mark 25 turbine with the second-stage blading removed was investigated. The over-all performance of the standard two­stage turbine and the first-stage turbine with five nozzles is reported in references 1 and 2 , respectively, and a study of axial nozzle-rotor clearance in reference 3.

Because of the geometry of the turbine installation in the Mark 25 torpedo, no precise survey measurements could be made near the nozzles and the blades during these previous investigations. Only the over-all performance of various combinations of nozzles and blades could be used to obtain information leading to perform­ance improvements.

The investigation reported herein was undertaken to obtain information regarding the variation of the over-all efficiency of turbines of this type with nozzles designed to vary the weight­flow rate and blades designed to change the effective flow area through the passages.

Four different turbine nozzles were investigated in conjunction with modifications to the first-stage blade design. These modifi­cations included. special blade heights of 0.35 and 0.45 inch as compared with the standard blade height of 0.40 inch. A third special first-stage rotor was fabricated with a blade-inlet angle of 200 instead of the standard 170 , the blade height being the same as that of the standard blade. When the results obtained 'with these three rotors are compared with the results previously obtained with the standard rotor, the effect of varying the effective flow area through the blading can be determined. The use of unabrouded blading facilitates turbine manufacture and hence the extent of the change in over-all performance was ascertained with the shroud

removed from the 0.35-inch rotor blading. Turbine performance was also determined with a close-fitting stationary shroud cap installed around the active portion of the blading to reduce the air leakage around the blade tips • Finally, the most efficient combination of nozzle and first-stage rotor was investigated in a two-stage Mark 25 turbine with use of the standard second-stage rotor.

All nozzle-rotor configurations were investigated at pressure ratios of 8, 15 (design), and 20 and a range of turbine speeds from approXimately 6000 to 18,000 rpm at inlet temperature and pressure conditions of 10000 F and 95 pounds per square inch gage, respec­tively. In order to evaluate the actual output of the nozzle-rotor combinations, the windage losses of each blade design w,ere deter­mined.

Water-channel investigations applying the hydrauliC analogy to supersonic air flow in order to study the flow through the first­stage blades at simulated operating velocities were made of both the 200 - and the standard l70 -inlet-angle blades.

TURBINE MODIFICATIONS AND SETUP

The standard Mark 25 torpedo power plant is a two-stage counter­rotating turbine with partial gas admission. The two stages operate at the same rotative speed but in opposite directions in order to eliminate gyroscopic action. Design speed is 18,000 rpm. A descrip­tion of the turbine and the modii'ications necessary to convert this unit into a single-stage turbine are described in references 1 and. 2.

Blades. - The standard first-stage turbine bas an outer diam­eter of 11.00 inches and 0.40-inch shrouded blades with an inlet angle of 170 • The blades of a sta.nda.rd first-stage rotor were machined to 0.35 inch and. a steel shroud was shrunk around the wheel to make one speCial turbine rotor. The second special rotor had blades 0.45 inch high and was designed so that the pitch diameter was not changed from that of the standard rotor; that is, the tip diameter was increased and. the hub diameter was decreased 0.025 inch. The third special rotor used had a 200 inlet angle and the standard blade height of 0.40 inch. .

Shrouds. - The effect of shrouding was determined by removing the steel shroud band around the 0.35-inch blades. Because unshrouded turbine wheels are more easily fabricated, determination of the aerodynamic penalty involved in the use of such wheels was considered

desirable. A close-fitting stationary shroud cap was installed around the active part of the unshrouded 0.35-inch blades. The sta­tionary shroud cap is shown with the unshrouded rotor in figure 1.

Nozzles. - The alphabetical notation of the nozzles used in the investigation was arbitrarily selected to distinguish nozzle design. Nozzles A, E, and H are discussed in references 1 and 2. Nozzle A has rounded inlets to the rectangular converging-diverging nozzle ports. Nozzle E has reamed ports with rounded inlets. These ports are cylindrical with no divergence in the nozzle, completed gas expansion occurring in the clearance space between the nozzle and the blades. Nozzle H has rectangular ports with sharp-edge inlets to the throats cast by a dif'ferent technique from that used for nozzle A. Nozzle I (not previously investigated) is similar to nozzle H in design but has smaller inlets and greater wall diver­gence in the ports. Both nozzles H and I utilize the gas-jet contraction effect caused by the sharp inlet edges, producing the equivalent of converging-diverging flow. The throat of the two nozzles is thus at the vena contracta, from which the gas expands to the nozzle outlet. All four nozzles have nine ports with 90o-arc admission. Additional characteristics of the nozzles are given in the following table:

-~-----~-

The nozzle-throat area and the air-weight flow are not proportional, probably because of variance in vena contracta with d1:f'ferent noz­zle designs.

The axial nozzle-rotor clearances were set to give a running clearance of 0.030 inch at operating temperature. Radial nozzle settings as well as the proper allowances for thermal changes in axial clearances were made to con:f'orm with the recommendations of reference 1.

NACA EM SE9G20 5

In order to determine what gains in a two-stage Mark 25 torpedo turbine could be realized by using the most efficient single-stage nozzle-rotor coni'iguration, a turbine was assembled to operate with a standard second-stage rotor in combination with the 0.45-inch blading and nozzle H.

The shock pattern and the possible flow separation through the standard 170 -inlet-angle blades and the special 200 -inlet-angle blades were studied by placing X5-scale models of the two pitch-line sections in a water channel similar to that described in refer­ence 4. The water channel essentially consists of a trough of shallow water flowing at the velocity necessary to simulate a given air-flow Mach number. The sur:race waves caused by the blades in the water channel represent shock waves in air. The waves are photographed by illuminating the channel from underneath and focusing the shadows of the waves on a ground glass. The theory of the hydraulic analogy to compressible air flow is given in references 4 and 5.

PROCEDURE

For each nozzle-rotor combination, the effect of pressure ratio and blade-jet speed ratio on turbine efficiency was investigated. These investigations were made at pressure ratios of 8, 15 (design), and 20 over a speed range from 6000 to 18,000 rpm with a constant inlet temperature of 10000 F and a constant 'inlet pressure of 95 pounds per square inch gage. Because of flow limitations of the outlet ducting, the maximum pressure ratio obtained with nozzle H was 19.

The rotation losses of the single-stage turbine with the stand­ard rotor are presented in references 1 and 2 and include an indi­vidual evaluation of the mechanical friction losses, the disk windage losses, and the losses incurred by the air-pumping effect with partial admission. Rotation losses of the 0.35-inch unshrouded blade were determined by measuring the power required to motor the rotor at speeds from 6000 to 18,000 rpm and at various air densities in the turbine case. Because of stress limitations acquired when the outer shroud was shrunk onto the blades, motoring the shrouded 0.35-inch blades under cold-air conditions for which there would be no compen~ting thermal effects was considered u.nsa:f'e. The windage losses for this rotor were therefore calculated from previous data.

CALCULATIONS

The brake, the rotor, and the blade efficiencies were computvd according to the method given in reference 1. Brake efficiency is the ratio of the brake power calculated from the torque and the speed at the dynamometer shaft to the available isentropic power based on inlet total temperature and pressure and outlet static pressure; rotor efficiency is the ratio of the brake power plus the mechanical losses in the gears and the bearings to the isentropic power; and blade efficiency is the ratio of the brake power plus the mechanical losses and the disk and blade windage losses to the isentropic power. Blade-jet speed ratio is defined as the ratio of the blade speed at the pitch diameter of the rotor to the ideal nozzle-jet velocity based on isentropic expansion from the inlet total temperature and pressure to the outlet static pressure. Pres­sure ratio is defined as the ratio of the inlet total pressure to the outlet static pressure.

Charts of the windage and mechanical losses of the single-stage unit prepared from motoring studies of a disk (reference 2) and the complete rotor are based on the analysis and the calculation pro­cedure described in reference 1 for the two-stage turbine. The power required to motor the unshrouded O.35-inch blades at various turbine speeds and temperatures and pressures in the turbine case is given in table I. Because of stress limitations, the power necessary to motor the O.35-inch shrouded blades was necessarily computed from data for the O.40-inch-blade-height rotor (refer-ence 2) by assuming that the blade windage loss was proportional to 11 •5, where 1 is the length of the turbine blade (reference 6). Data obtained with the shrouded O.35-inch blades were calculated both with and without this correction and the agreement with the basic data obtained with the O.40-inch standard rotor was found to be within experimental accuracy. On this basis and because the pitch diameters and the outside diameters of the rotors with the O.45-iDch and the O.40-inch blades described in reference 2 are almost the same, the two rotors were assumed to have the same wind­age losses. Because the nozzles had 900 -nozzle-arc gas admiSSion, one-fourth of the rotor blades are active and hence not subject to windage or pumping loss. Because windage loss of the unit is the total disk windage (reference 2) plus three-fourths of th-a windage due to the inactive rotor blades, figure 2 was prepared with the additional loss due to the inactive O.35-inch shrouded and unshrouded blades considered. This figure may be used. directly to find the windage and mechanical losses in the O.35-inch-blade turbine if the gas density in the turbine case is known. A silnilar 'chart for the rotor with O.40-iDch blades is presented in reference 2.

For the water-channel studies of the blade shapes, the inlet Mach number to the blade under turbine operating conditions was calculated for the design pressure ratio of lS through the nozzle, assuming a nozzle velocity coefficient of 0.96, an inlet tempera­ture of 10000 F, and design turbine speed of 18,000 rpm. This Mach number and the design inlet angle of flow were simulated in the wa t.er channel.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

Single-Stage Performance with Various

Nozzle-Rotor Combinations

Efficiency data for the rotors having 0.3S-inch unshrouded blades, 0.3S-inch unshrouded blades with a stationary shroud cap, 0.3S-inch shrouded blades, standard 0.40-inch blades and nozzle I, 0.4S-inch shrouded blades, and for the runs with the 200-inlet blades are presented in tables II to VII.

Nozzle A. - The brake efficiency of the single-stage turbine with nozzle A and the various blade designs is shown in figure 3. The data of reference 2 for the standard 0.40-inch rotor are also shown for comparison. At a pressure ratio of 8, the standard rotor is the most efficient for this nozzle. When the pressure ratio is increased to the design value of lS or to 20, the two rotors having a greater flow area (the 0.4S-in. blade and the 200-inlet blade) showed improved performance. Figure 3 also shows the reduction in performance when the blade height is reduced to 0.3S inch. 'l.'he very substantial drop in efficiency when the shroud band is removed is only partly recovered when a close-fitting stationary shroud cap is placed over the active portion of the blading. Because the dif­ference in windage losses in the shrouded and unshrouded 0.3S-inch blades is small (fig. 2), the drop in efficiency of approxi­mately 0.04 caused by the two rotor configurations at maximum blade-jet speed ratio and the design pressure ratio of lS indicates high tip losses when the unshrouded wheel is used. The corre­sponding drop in efficiency at pressure ratios of 8 and 20 were approximately 0.08 and O.OS, respectively.

Nozzle E. - When nozzle E is used (fig. 4), there is little difference in performance between the standard 0.40-inch rotor, the 0.4S-1nch rotor, and the 200-inlet-angle rotor, especially at the higher pressure ratios. The performance with the 0.3S-inch rotor shows the same trends as those for nozzle A.

NACA EM SE9G20 a

Nozzle H. - A gain in performance of approximately 0.05 over the standard 0.40-inch blade was obtained with nozzle H and. the 0.45-inch blade (fig. 5). The maximum obtained brake efficiency of 0.54 occurred at a blade-jet speed ratio of 0.295 and a pressure ratio of a. The peak brake efficiency, which would be at a higher blade-jet speed ratio, could not be determined because of the la,OOO-rpm speed limitation of the turbine. The same limitation of peak efficiency occurs with all the nozzle-rotor configurations investigated. The 200 -inlet-angle rotor showed substantially the same performance as the standard rotor with nozzle R. This nozzle handled the largest air flow of the nozzles operated, indicating that a greater flow area through the turbine blade is advantageous for more extraction of power from the single-stage turbine.

Nozzle I. - The results of the various rotor configurations with nozzle I are presented in figure 6. At the higher pressure ratiOS, the 0.45-inch blade shows the most efficient performance. The unshrouded 0.55-inch blades again had the lowest performance.

In general, the rotor and blade efficiencies presented herein for the various nozzle-rotor configurations follow the same trends as the brake efficiencies.

Two-Stage Turbine with Most Efficient

Nozzle-Rotor Combination

In general, experience with the various types of nozzle and blade in the single-stage turbine indicates that a som~hat larger flow area in the rotor is advantageous for the extraction of greater power from the first stage. Results have shown that the rotor hav­ing longer blades than that of the standard rotor had slightly greater efficiency than the blades with increased inlet angles with each nozzle. In the event that the flow leaving the rotor is sub­sonic, however, the greater area in the first stage may cause the velocity leaving this stage to be insufficient for developing as much useful work from the second stage as that observed during the investisation of the standard Mark 25 two-stage turbine. Study of the standard first-stage turbine blades indicated that the throat area was insufficient to swallow a supersonic air stream under operating conditions. Subsonic flow appeared likely to prevail at the blading outlet. Velocity diagrams based on this premise indi­cated both low outlet velocity from the first stage and unfavorable inlet angle for the second. stage. In order to investigate the pos­sible adverse effects of increasing the flow area of the first­stage rotor, the most efficient first-stage combination (O.45-in.­blade rotor and nozzle H) was therefore operated with the second

stage. It should be noted, however, that at a blade-jet speed ratio o:f 0.20, which would be approximately the peak performance point for the two-stage turbine, the 0.45-inch-blade rotor gives only a slight gain in performance over the standard rotor.

In figure 7, the performance of the two-stage turbine with the C.45-inch-blade first-stage rotor and nozzle H is compared with the sGandard Mark 25 blading with nozzle H. The lower efficiency of the unit with the higher blade-height first stage may be attributed to unfavorable inlet conditions of the second stage. Because the windage losses for the 0.40- and 0.45-inch blade-height first-stage rotors are considered the same, the windage losses for the two­stage units using these rotors are the same. The blade efficiencies therefore bear the same relation to each other as do the brake effi­ciencies for the two-stage units. The gain in first-stage output is apparently more than outweighed by the drop in second-stage perform­ance. The data for the two-stage unit with the 0.45-inch blade­height first stage is presented in table VIII.

Water-Channel Studies

In order to ascertain if' supersonic velocities are maintained throU8h the turbine-blade passages, XS-soale models of the stand­ard 170- and special 200-inlet blades were placed in a water channel to investigate the flow by the hydraulic analogy. Photographs of the flow throU8h models o:f the turbine blades taken in the water channel at an analogous Mach number o:f approximately 1.6, corre­sponding to assumed turbine operating conditions at a speed of 18,000 rpm and an inlet temperature of 10000 F, are shown in f ig­ure 8. A nozzle pressure ratio of 15 and a nozzle-velocity coef­ficient of 0.96 were assumed for the Mach number calculations. The leading edge o:f the 17o-inlet-angle blades was placed at an angle o:f attack of 00 and the 200-inlet-angle blades at an angle o:f attack o:f 30 in the water stream.

In each set of blades, a wave corresponding to a normal shock in air appears at the inlet to the passage between the blades. The wave appears to be somewhat farther inside the passage in the 200-inlet-angle design. The occurrence of a normal shock in the inlet of the blade passage is indicative that the throat area is insufficient and that a rise in pressure together with substantial blade losses would result. That the analogous velocity inside the passage is subsoniC is evidenced by the apparent !nabili ty of the blading to swallow the shock and by the lack of oblique waves inside

the passage. For maximum blade performance in supersonic turbine passages, it would be more advantageous to allow the normal shock to be swallowed completely. This experiment also supports the conjecture that subsonic flow prevailed at the rotor outlet.

SUMMARY OF BESULTS

10

The performance of the first stage of a Mark 25 two-stage tur­bine with several blade designs was investigated with each of four nozzles. The most efficient first-stage blade and nozzle combina­tion was operated with a standard second-stage rotor as a two-stage turbine. The first-stage blade designs were examined in a water channel for shock-wave formation. The following results were obtained:

1. A somewhat larger flow area in the first-stage blades than that provided in the standard Mark 25 turbine ;was found to be advantageous for more efficient extraction of power fram the first stage. At the high pressure ratios, the rotor having longer blades than that of the standard rotor showed slightly greater efficiency than the blades with increased inlet angles with each nozzle.

2. The highest first-stage brake efficiency was obtained with a rotor having blades 0.45 inch high and a cast sharp-edged-inlet turbine nozzle (H). For a pressure ratio of 8 and blade-jet speed ratio of 0.295, the maximum brake efficiency of the combination was 0.54, a gain of 0.03 over the standard Mark 25 first stage under the same conditions.

3. Removing the shroud band from the outside of the turbine blades caused a substantial drop in efficiency. Only part of this decrease in efficiency was recovered when a close-fitting stationary shroud cap "was placed over the active portion of the blading.

4. When the most efficient first-stage rotor and nozzle combin­ation was assembled with a standard second-stage rotor to form a two­stage turbine, the resulting brake efficiency was less than when a standard Mark 25 first-stage rotor was used. This decrease was pre­sumed to be caused by unfavorable outlet velocities from the first stage and inlet angles to the second stage due to the greater blade­height first-stage wheel, causing the second stage to be of reduced effectiveness.

5. Water-channel investigation of X5 models of the standard 170 - and the special 200-inlet-angle Mark 25 first-stage blade
