AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR
Turbine engines, and in particular gas or combustion turbine engines, are rotating engines which extract energy from a flow of burnt gas passing through the engine over a multitude of rotating turbine blades. Gas turbine engines have been used for land and nautical locomotion and for the generation of electric current, but are more commonly used for aeronautical applications such as airplanes or helicopters. In aircraft, gas turbine engines are used to propel the aircraft.
During the operation of a turbine engine, the total air temperature also known as a stagnation temperature can be measured by a temperature probe mounted on the surface of the aircraft or the interior walls of the turbine engine. The probe is designed to cause air to rest relative to the aircraft. The air undergoes an adiabatic temperature increase when it is brought to rest and measured, and the total air temperature is therefore higher than the ambient air temperature. Total air temperature is an essential input for calculating static air temperature and true air speed. Total air temperature sensors can be exposed to harsh conditions including high Mach numbers and icing conditions, as well as water and debris, which can affect the reading provided by the sensor.
In one aspect, the present invention relates to an air temperature sensor suitable for use on an aircraft, the temperature sensor comprising a housing defining an interior and having at least a portion with a cross section of a wing profile to define a wing profile portion with an upper surface and a lower surface, a temperature sensor located in the wing profile portion, an air flow path having an inlet in the upper surface of the housing and extending through the housing to the temperature sensor to allow air deflected from the air flowing along the top surface to contact the temperature sensor; and a series of fluid passages defined in the interior and having an inlet port and a series of outlet ports located in the housing and in which the series of fluid passages are configured to receive bleed air hot through the inlet port and dispersing the hot bleed air to the series of outlet ports to heat at least a portion of the wing profile portion.
In another aspect, the present invention relates to an air temperature sensor, comprising a housing having a coating and defining an interior, a temperature sensor having a first portion located in the interior and a second portion extending through it. a portion of the housing and at least partially adjacent to a portion of the coating, and a series of fluid passages defined therein and configured to receive hot bleed air and disperse hot bleed air to at least two separate parts of the covering.
In yet another aspect, the present invention relates to a method of forming a total air temperature sensor housing, the method comprising forming, via additive manufacturing of a housing having an exterior surface and defining an interior and having at least a part with a wing profile cross section for defining a wing profile part with an upper surface and a lower surface and having a series of fluid passages defined in the interior and having an orifice inlet and a series of outlet ports located in the housing and in which the series of fluid passages are configured to receive hot bleed air through the inlet port and disperse hot bleed air to the series of outlet openings for heating at least a portion of the exterior surface of at least a portion of the wing profile cross section.

The described embodiments of the present invention relate to an air temperature sensor for an aircraft turbine engine. It will be understood, however, that the invention is not so limited and may have general applicability in an engine, as well as in non-aeronautical applications, such as other mobile applications and non-mobile industrial, commercial and residential applications.
As used herein, the term "forward" or "upstream" refers to a displacement in one direction toward the inlet port of the engine, or of a component being relatively closer to the port d motor input compared to another component. The term “backward” or “downstream” used in conjunction with “forward” or “upstream” refers to a direction toward the rear or the engine outlet or being relatively closer to the motor outlet in comparison to another component.
Additionally, as used herein, the terms "radial" or "radially" refer to a dimension extending between a central longitudinal axis of the engine and an outer circumference of the engine. A "series" as used here can include any number of a particular element, including just one.
All directional references (e.g. radial, axial, proximal, distal, upper, lower, up, down, left, right, side, front, back, up, down, above, below, vertical, horizontal, clockwise, counterclockwise, upstream, downstream, forward, backward, etc.) are only used for identification to aid in the reader's understanding of the present invention, and do not create any limitation, particularly with regard to the position, orientation or use of the present invention. Connection references (e.g. fixed, coupled, connected, and joined) should be considered broadly and may include intermediate elements between a collection of elements and relative movement between elements unless otherwise indicated. As such, connection references need not necessarily infer that two elements are directly connected and in a fixed relationship together. The exemplary drawings are for illustration only and the dimensions, positions, order, and relative sizes reflected in the accompanying drawings may vary.
Figure 1 is a schematic sectional diagram of a gas turbine engine 10 for an aircraft. The motor 10 has an axis or central line extending generally longitudinally 12 extending from the front 14 towards the rear 16. The motor 10 includes, in relation in series of flow downstream, a blower section 18 including a blower 20, a compressor section 22 including a booster or low pressure compressor (BP) 24 and a high pressure compressor (HP) 26, a combustion section 28 including a combustion chamber 30, a turbine section 32 including an HP turbine 34, and a BP turbine 36, and an exhaust section 38.
The blower section 18 includes a blower housing 40 surrounding the blower 20. The blower 20 includes a plurality of blower blades 42 disposed radially around the center line 12. The HP compressor 26, the combustion chamber 30, and the HP turbine 34 form a core 44 of the engine 10, which generates combustion gases. The core 44 is surrounded by a core housing 46, which can be coupled with the blower housing 40. A total air temperature sensor (TAT) 90 can be disposed in the blower housing 40 as shown; however, this example is not intended to be limiting, and the TAT 90 sensor can be positioned in other locations in the turbine engine 10.
An HP body or shaft 48 arranged coaxially around the central line 12 of the motor 10 connects by drive the HP turbine 34 to the HP compressor 26. A BP body or shaft 50, which is arranged coaxially around the central line 12 of the motor 10 to the inside of the HP annular larger diameter body 48, connects by driving the BP turbine 36 to the BP compressor 24 and to the blower
20. The bodies 48, 50 can rotate around the center line of the engine and be coupled to a plurality of rotating elements, which can collectively define a rotor 51.
The BP compressor 24 and the HP compressor 26 respectively include a plurality of compressor stages 52, 54, in which a series of compressor blades 56, 58 rotate relative to a corresponding series of static compressor fins 60, 62 ( also called nozzle) to compress or pressurize the flow of fluid passing through. In a single compressor stage 52, 54, multiple compressor blades 56, 58 can be provided in a ring and can extend radially outward relative to the center line 12, from a blade platform to 'at a blade tip, while the corresponding static compressor vanes 60, 62 are positioned upstream of and adjacent to the rotating vanes 56, 58. Note that the number of vanes, vanes, and compressor stages shown on Figure 1 have been selected for illustration purposes only, and other numbers are possible.
The vanes 56, 58 for one stage of the compressor can be mounted on a disc 61, which is mounted on a corresponding one of the HP and BP bodies 48, 50, with each stage having its own disc 61. The fins 60, 62 for a stage of the compressor can be mounted on the core housing 46 in a circumferential arrangement.
The HP turbine 34 and the BP turbine 36 respectively include a plurality of turbine stages 64, 66, in which a series of turbine blades 68, 70 are rotated relative to a corresponding series of static turbine fins 72 , 74 (also called a nozzle) to extract energy from the stream of fluid passing through. In a single turbine stage 64, 66, multiple turbine blades 68, 70 can be provided in a ring and can extend radially outward relative to the central line 12 while the corresponding static turbine fins 72, 74 are positioned upstream of and adjacent to the rotating vanes 68, 70. It is noted that the number of blades, fins, and turbine stages shown in FIG. 1 have been selected only for illustration purposes, and that other numbers are possible.
The vanes 68, 70 for one stage of the turbine can be mounted on a disc 71, which is mounted on one corresponding to the HP and BP bodies 48, 50, with each stage having a dedicated disc 71. The fins 72, 74 for one stage of the compressor can be mounted on the core casing 46 in a circumferential arrangement.
In addition to the rotor part, the fixed parts of the motor 10, such as the static fins 60, 62, 72, 74 among the compressor and the turbine section 22, 32 are also called individually or collectively a stator 63. As as such, the stator 63 may refer to the combination of non-rotating elements throughout the motor 10.
In operation, the air flow exiting the blower section 18 is separated so that part of the air flow is channeled into the BP compressor 24, which then supplies pressurized air 76 to the HP 26 compressor, which still compresses the air. The pressurized air 76 from the HP compressor 26 is mixed with fuel in the combustion chamber 30 and ignited, thereby generating combustion gases. Some work is extracted from these gases by the turbine HP 34, which drives the compressor HP 26. The combustion gases are discharged in the turbine BP 36, which extracts additional work to drive the compressor BP 24, and the gas of The exhaust is finally discharged from the engine 10 via the exhaust section 38. The drive of the BP turbine 36 drives the BP body 50 to rotate the blower 20 and the BP compressor 24.
A portion of the pressurized air flow 76 can be withdrawn from the compressor section 22 as bleed air 77. The bleed air 77 can be withdrawn from the pressurized air flow 76 and supplied to the components of the engine needing to be cooled. The temperature of the pressurized air flow 76 entering the combustion chamber 30 is significantly increased. As such, the cooling provided by bleed air 77 is necessary for the operation of such engine components in very high temperature environments.
A remaining part of the air flow 78 avoids the LP compressor 24 and the motor core 44 and leaves the engine assembly 10 through a row of fixed fins, and more particularly a set of guide fins outlet port 80, comprising a plurality of wing profile guide vanes 82, on the exhaust side of the fan 84. More specifically, a circumferential row of wing profile guide vanes s' extending radially 82 are used in the vicinity of the blower section 18 to exert some directional control of the air flow 78.
Part of the air supplied by the blower 20 can bypass the motor core 44 and be used to cool parts, especially hot parts, of the motor 10, and / or used to cool or power other aspects of the aircraft. In the context of a turbine engine, the hot parts of the engine are normally downstream of the combustion chamber 30, especially of the turbine section 32, with the HP turbine 34 being the hottest part since it is directly downstream of the combustion section 28. Other sources of cooling fluid can be, but are not limited to, fluid discharged from the LP compressor 24 or the HP compressor 26.
Figure 2 more clearly shows the TAT sensor 90 in a separate part of the motor 10. A mounting section 92 having a suitable mounting part 94 may be included in the TAT sensor 90. A wiring housing 96 may be included in the mounting section 92 and can be coupled to an electrical conduit 98. The mounting section 92 can be any suitable mounting portion 94 and is not intended to be limiting. A housing 102 is mounted at an upper section 104 of the housing 102 on a portion of the aircraft engine 10 at the mounting section 92. A tube inlet port 108 is coupled to the housing 102 and is coupled to a source of hot bleed air. By way of nonlimiting example, the sampling air 110 is illustrated as entering the tube inlet orifice 108.
A coating 100 defines an outer surface 103 of the housing 102 of the TAT sensor 90. At least one series of outlet orifices 101 is included in the coating 100. The coating 100 may include at least two separate parts of the coating 100a, 100b which may be wet surfaces. A wet surface can be any surface susceptible to condensation and accumulation of frost.
A lower section 112 of the housing 102 defines a wing profile portion 114. A portion of the covering 100 may form the wing profile portion 114 of the lower section 112. The wing profile portion 114 may have one side concave, or an upper surface 116 and a convex side, or a lower surface 118. The wing profile portion 114 may extend from a leading edge 115 to a trailing edge 117. A orifice temperature sensor inlet 120 in the upper surface 116 extends through the portion of the coating 100b to an outlet port 122 (Figure 3) to provide a deflected air flow path (DAP) for a portion of pressurized air flow 76.
According to Figure 3, an exploded view of the TAT sensor 90 is illustrated. The TAT sensor 90 is illustrated in a different orientation from that of Figure 2 to more clearly show the temperature sensor outlet 122 in the vicinity of an open portion 124 defined by the lower section 112 of the housing. The open part 124 defined by the casing 102 separates the two parts of the coating 100a, 100b to define the outlet for the temperature sensor 122 between them. The temperature sensor outlet 122 is near the trailing edge 117 and on the bottom surface 118 of the wing profile portion 114.
A tube, by way of nonlimiting example a piccolo tube 132 extends from a first end 134 to a second end 136. The first end 134 is coupled to the tube inlet orifice 108 and the second end 136 can extend into the casing 102.
A temperature sensor assembly 139 includes an upper sheath 140, a protective sleeve 142, and a temperature sensor 144. The temperature sensor 144 is a total air temperature sensor suitable for use on an aircraft, in the engine 10.
The temperature sensor assembly 139 may further include a locking mechanism 148 and a lower sheath 150. The locking mechanism 148 may be located in the housing 102. The lower sheath 150 may include a slotted opening 151 through which deflected air along the deflected air flow path (DAP) can contact the temperature sensor 144. The locking mechanism 148 can be formed in any suitable manner and oriented in any suitable manner with respect to to the deflected air flow path (DAP) and to the temperature sensor 144. At least one rib 126 with an opening 128 may be located in the open portion 124. When assembled, the at least one rib 126 may help stabilize the lower sheath 150 surrounding the temperature sensor 144.
More precisely, when it is assembled, as in the figure
4, the lower sheath 150 is located in the open part 124 defined by the casing 124. The lower sheath 150 extends through the opening 128 of the at least one rib 126. The locking mechanism 148 of the assembly of the temperature sensor 139 includes the protective sleeve 142 and the upper sheath 140 of the temperature sensor 144. The lower sheath 150 includes the temperature sensor 144.
An interior 158 of the casing 124 is defined at least in part by the coating 100. A first portion 158a of the interior 158 may be included in the first portion of the coating 100a. A second part 158b of the interior 158 can be located in the second part of the covering 100b.
A dispersion chamber 166 is located in the interior 158 of the casing 124. The dispersion chamber 166 can be defined by a series of walls 192 and can be fluidly coupled to a transfer tube 182 and a series of intermediate conduits 198.
An inlet port 162 in the dispersion chamber 166 is defined by a tip 163 having a series of spray openings 164. The tip 163 defines the inlet port 162 and is operatively coupled to one of the series of walls 192. The second end 136 of the piccolo tube 132 is coupled to the interior 158 of the casing 124 via the tip 163.
The series of outlet ports 101 may include multiple series of outlet ports 101 placed in the liner 100. A first series of outlet ports 101a is placed in the first portion 158a and a second series of outlet ports 101b is placed in the second part 158b.
A series of fluid passages 172 is placed throughout the interior 158. The series of fluid passages 172 may include a first fluid passage 172a in the first portion 158a of the interior 158. The first fluid passage path 172a includes a first series of channels 174a fluidly connecting the dispersion chamber 166 to the first series of outlet ports 101a. The example of the first series of channels 174a includes parallel channels 174a of similar width and length coupled by a first turn 176.
In this way the first passage of fluid 172a returns back along a portion 178 of a length (L) of the casing 102. It is envisaged that the first series of channels 174a are oriented in any suitable manner including but not limited to in patterns in parallel, sinuous, or in series, such that the dispersion chamber 166 is fluidly coupled to the first series of outlet orifices 101a in the first part 158a of the interior 158.
A second fluid passage 172b in the second portion 158b of the interior 158 includes a second series of channels 174b fluidly connecting the dispersion chamber 166 to the second series of outlet ports 101b.
A series of dead air spaces 160 can also be included in the casing 102. The series of dead air spaces 160 are fluidly separated from the series of fluid passages 172. By way of nonlimiting example, the dead air spaces 160 may be located in the housing 102 in which hot air should not be dispersed. The series of dead air spaces 160 may be located between the first part 158a and the second part 158b, so that at least part of the series of dead air spaces 160 extends parallel to the first and second series series of channels 174a, 174b.
FIG. 5 shows more clearly a part of the dispersion chamber 166 and the series of spray openings 164. A cap 191 forms the tip 163 and the series of spray openings 164 are located around parts of the cap 191. The cap 191, can be rounded having a perimeter 190 and the series of spray openings 164 can be spaced around the perimeter 190. At least one of the spray openings 164a can be formed at a distal end 196 of the tip 163. As illustrated the series of spray openings 164 may be a plurality of spray openings 164 also spaced around the perimeter 190 and configured to spray the hot bleed air 110 into the dispersion chamber 166.
The series of walls 192 forming the dispersion chamber 166 may include an inclined surface 192a, a series surface 192b, a parallel surface 192c, and an inlet port surface 192d. A series of corners 194 can be defined where all pairs of the series of walls can meet.
The series of spray openings 164 is configured to direct the hot bleed air into the dispersion chamber 166, on the walls forming the dispersion chamber 166, and in the fluid passages 172. In the example illustrated, a first part 110a of the hot bleed air is directed into the first fluid passages 172a via the series of intermediate conduits 198. The series of spray openings is further configured to direct a second part 110b of the bleed air hot in the second fluid passages 172b (FIG. 4) via the transfer tube 182. The hot bleeding air 110 can be separated into other parts of hot bleeding air 110c, in which at least one of the other parts hot bleed air 110c is introduced into the series of corners 194 and / or the series of walls 192. In particular at least one spraying opening 164b is oriented in such a way e that it heats the inclined surface 192a.
According to FIG. 6, the cross section through part of the wing profile formed by the lower section 112 of the TAT sensor 90 more clearly illustrates part of the series of fluid passages 172. It can be seen that the first and second fluid passages 172a, 172b are located on opposite sides of the housing 120 and on any side of the deflected air flow path (DAP). It can also be seen that a wing profile cross section 154 can be asymmetrical although this is not necessary.
In addition, it is also more clearly shown that the second series of channels 174b can be oriented in any suitable manner including, but not limited to, in parallel. In addition, it can be seen that the series of channels 174 do not need to have the same shape or cross section. The second series of channels 174b can also include a second turn 180 illustrated in dotted lines. In this way the second fluid passage 172b returns backwards similarly to the first fluid passage 172a. It is further contemplated that the second series of channels 174b may be in any orientation including in sinuous patterns, or in series, and have variable volumes such that the inlet port 162 is fluidly coupled to the second series of outlet orifices 101b in the second part 158b of the interior 158.
The series of dead air spaces 160 is close to the temperature sensor 144. In this way, the lower sheath 150 along the series of dead air spaces 160 can protect the temperature sensor 144 together from heat. in the first and second series of channels 174a, 174b.
During operation the deflected air flow path (DAP) flows through the temperature sensor inlet 120 and onto the lower sheath 150. The temperature sensor 144 is exposed to record a deflected air flow path (DAP) temperature. During operation the outer surface 103 of the wing profile portion 114 may become heated by heat in the first and second series of channels 174a, 174b. The lower sheath 150 channels any heated air at the outer surface 103 away from the temperature sensor 144 and prevents heated air from reaching the temperature sensor 144 reducing defrosting errors. The deflected air flow path (DAP) and the lower duct 150 function to form a stagnant air flow zone around the temperature sensor 144 to allow a reading of the total air temperature by the temperature sensor 144.
FIG. 7 illustrates a plurality of air flow paths shown in a partial section of the casing 102. The air flow paths in the casing 102 are defined at least in part by the series of fluid passages 172.
During operation, the hot bleed air 110 can enter the inlet port 162 and be dispersed through the series of spray openings 164 into the dispersion chamber 166. A first portion 110a of the air hot sample 110 flows through the intermediate conduits 198 and along the first fluid passages 172a defining a first hot air flow path (FAP). The first hot air flow path (FAP) can flow along the length (L) of the casing 102 and at least partially along the leading edge 115 of the wing profile part 114. The first hot air flow path (FAP) can rotate at first turn 176, and exit through the first series of outlet ports 101a.
The transfer tube 182 changes from an orientation perpendicular to the length L to an orientation parallel to the length L at a third turn 184. The transfer tube 182 fluidly couples the inlet port 162 to the second passages of fluid 172b. A second part 110b of the hot bleed air 110 enters at the inlet orifice 162 and flows along the second fluid passages 172b. The second hot air flow path (SAP) flows through the transfer tube 182 perpendicular to the length (L) of the housing, rotates at the third turn 184 to flow along the part 178 of the casing 102, turns again at the second turning 180 and exits through the second series of outlet orifices 101b.
The first hot air flow path (FAP) is configured to heat the part of the covering 100a close to the leading edge 115 of the wing profile part 114. The second hot air flow path ( SAP) is configured to heat the liner 100b near the open portion 124 of the wing profile portion 114. Together the first hot air flow path (FAP) and the second hot air flow path (SAP) heat the outer surface 103 of the housing 102 to prevent the formation of frost along the wing profile portion 114.
A method of forming the TAT sensor 90 as described herein may include forming, via additive manufacturing, the housing 102 with the coating 100 defining the interior 158 and including the wing profile cross section 154 defining the profile portion 114. The additive manufacturing can form the wing profile part including the upper surface 116 and the lower surface 118. The additive manufacturing can form the series of fluid passages 172 in the interior 158 and the orifice inlet 162 and the series of outlet openings 101 located in the casing. Additive manufacturing can form the cap 191 in one piece with a rest of the casing 102; thus forming the tip 163 and the series of spray openings 164. The additive manufacturing is done in such a way that the series of fluid passages 172 are configured to receive the hot bleed air 110 via the inlet orifice 162 and dispersing the hot bleed air 110 to the series of outlet ports 101 to heat at least a portion of the exterior surface. Additive manufacturing, by way of nonlimiting examples, can include direct metal melting by laser or direct metal sintering by laser.
Benefits associated with the description presented herein include providing pneumatically heated air and directing heated air to critical locations in the sensor housing without impacting the sensor reading. The location and size of the channels can be optimized using additive manufacturing without relying on conventional conventional subtractive manufacturing, by way of nonlimiting example of machining, drilling, and grinding.
A typical sensor exposed to an icing environment has been designed or mechanically positioned in the environment so that any large amounts of frost removed from the sensor will not damage the objects behind it. This limits the selection of the location for the TAT sensor, and therefore limits the performance of the TAT sensor. Eliminating the ice cover with heating systems in the TAT sensor improves the possibilities for the location. Additionally considering the increased sensitivity to frost coverage of the current engine design, TAT sensors with minimal to zero frost coverage are preferred.
Additively fabricating the TAT sensor allows positioning of the heating channels along any desired location. The assembly time of the TAT sensor is also reduced due to the fact that the casing is additionally manufactured.
Additionally, the dispersion chamber as described here uses an outlet with a series of spray openings to directly heat areas of the TAT sensor with high frost concentrations. The diffused hot air is then transferred to the wing profile part of the TAT sensor to further prevent the formation of frost.
It should be understood that the application of the design described is not limited to turbine engines with fan and booster sections, but is also applicable to turbojets and turbo engines.
This written description uses examples to describe the invention, including the best mode, and also allow any person skilled in the art to practice the invention, including the manufacture and use of any device or system and the making of any incorporated process.
