Номер: GB0002449708A
Принадлежит:

An optical apparatus and method for determining wear between relatively movable components, such as between rotor blades 30 and a stator casing 46. The stator casing 46 is provided with an abradable material 48 on its inner surface. A plurality of optical members, optical fibres 52, are arranged at different depths within the abradable material 48 such that a first end 52A of each of the optical fibres is at a different distance from the tips 44 of the turbine rotor blades 30. At least one radiation detector 54 is arranged to detect radiation in the optical fibres. An analyzer 56 is arranged to detect a difference in the radiation collected (i.e. black body radiation) in the optical fibres 52. As the abradable material is worn away the ends of the optical fibres are uncovered in turn and a difference in received optical wavelength is detected. The ends of the optical fibres may be arranged on the surface of a cone or ellipse. Alternatively a single optical member may be provided with a ...

Pyrometric determination of radiance and/ or temperature

Номер: GB0002358059A
Принадлежит:

A method for determining the radiance and/ or temperature of a rotating object such as a turbine blade B comprises determining the reflectivity of the object B under low-temperature conditions where the object is non-emissive, the radiance of the blade under high temperature conditions and measuring the intensity of incident radiation from external sources such as a combustor C. The radiance measurement may be corrected for reflected radiation by a factor depending on the reflectivity and the incident radiation intensity. A minimum-picking process may be used on the resulting data to reduce the effects of flare. The apparatus may comprise a retractable probe P which rotates about an axis A1. The incident radiation and the radiance of the object may be monitored by two separate detectors D2, D1, or alternatively, by a common pyrometer system (figure 2).

Detection of changes in light-affecting-characteristics of optical elements

Номер: GB0002123549A
Принадлежит:

In a radiation pyrometer in a gas turbine engine, non-uniformly distributed changes in transparency of an optical element in the system, e.g. contamination of pyrometer objective lens L1 by combustion products from the turbine can be automatically detected. Lens L1 focusses radiation from target T onto an additional lens L2, which in turn focusses it onto the end E of the fibre-optic bundle F. Considered reciprocally, lens L2 images the end E of fibre-optic F into L1, so that although each optical fibre in end E receives radiation from all parts of target T, each fibre is imaged into a corresponding discrete area of L1. Fibre-optic bundle F comprises two (or more) sub-bundles F1 and F2 forming complementary sub-areas of end E and each sub-bundle is provided with its own photodetector P1, P2 and associated pre-amplifier A1,A2 adjusted so that their outputs A1S1 and A2,S2 are matched at the non-contamination condition. When one part of lens L1 is contaminated during service more than the ...

Temperature sensor for a high speed rotating machine

Номер: US0010837836B2

Infra-red sensors are often used in turbo molecular pumps to detect the temperature of the rotor or other mechanical parts and therefore indicate imminent, or potential, running failures. As deposits build up on either the infra-red sensor, or on the surface being monitored, the reading given by the sensor may not be a true representation of the actual surface temperature which can cause the pump controller to fail to stop the pump in time. The present invention provides a method and device for calibrating the sensor by creating a determined temperature rise in the sensor whilst keeping the rotor at ambient temperature. In particular the present invention uses the motor stator as the heater for causing the temperature increase.

To be of most use as an input signal for the control system of a gas turbine aeroengine, a pyrometer-derived turbine blade temperature signal should represent the average temperature of the hottest parts of the blades with fast and accurate response when the average temperature of the hottest parts changes with engine conditions. The invention achieves this by providing the pyrometer with an optical system adapted to give the pyrometer's photo-diode a large field of view which is rectangular at the face of the turbine rotor and which extends an integer number of inter-blade passage widths in the circumferential direction and a portion of the length of the blade aerofoils in the radial direction. The large rectangular field of view is achieved by masking the optical system and arranging that it cooperates with a small aperture in the wall of the turbine gas passage in such a way that at the aperture the field of view lies entirely within the boundary of the aperature, the field of view expanding ...

Номер: CA1218877A

In known pyrometers for gas-turbine engines, the temperature of different regions along the length of a turbine blade can be determined by focussing radiation from the blade with a lens onto a row of ends of several fibre-optic bundles. Arranging the ends of the bundles in a row does not, however, use the radiation focused by the lens very efficiently. In the present invention, the bundles are arranged in a jig with one bundle being positioned centrally and two other bundles of C-shape located on opposite sides and extending around the central bundle. In this way, the end of the three bundles forms a circular area with an efficient utilization of the radiation focus by the lens.

An infrared temperature sensor system measures the emissivity of a surface, such as a rotor 101. An IR sensor 2 is positioned near or integral to a heating means, such as a heater (14, fig 2) or a motor 26. The IR sensor 2 is directed at the surface of an object such as a rotor shaft 100 and the temperature of the sensor 2 is raised by the heating means 26 without significantly heating the object surface 101. The voltage generated by the sensor 2 is compared with an expected voltage and determines whether the IR system is working at ideal operational status. This measurement can also enable calculating the emissivity of the surface 101 depending on an expected emissivity and the ratio of expected and generated voltages. The system is intended for use in a turbo-molecular vacuum pump rotor 100 to monitor potential thermal expansion of rotor blades 9 and therefore prevent failure.

Optical probe

Номер: US4240706A
Автор: Joseph Douglas
Принадлежит: Rolls Royce PLC

An optical probe is particularly for use as part of the viewing system of a radiation pyrometer, e.g. for measurement of temperatures of turbine blades in a gas turbine aeroengine. Although the objective end of the probe lies flush with the outer wall of the turbine gas passage in order to avoid disturbance of the gas flow and is angled away from the blade by virtue of its conformity with the geometry of the outer wall of the gas passage, the probe's field of view nevertheless includes locations on the turbine blades which are considerably axially upstream from the probe's position. This is achieved by providing the probe with an objective prism whose front and rear faces are inclined with respect to each other, so that, for rays of a preselected wavelength, the prism refracts into the probe and along the internal optical path of the probe only those rays from a preselected location on the blade. Since the blade radiates at a number of wavelengths, a filter is included in the viewing system so that the pyrometer is presented with radiation at a single wavelength, and therefore with a single image from the single preselected location on the blade. The probe also includes an image centralizing prism in order to centralize the optical path within the probe, and glare stops in order to collimate the rays after they have passed through the objective prism and the image centralizing prism. The objective prism may be made of sapphire in order to withstand the heat of the turbine gases.

Принадлежит: SMITHS GROUP PLC

A radiation-detecting device which is mounted on a gas-turbine engine to receive radiations from the afterburner combustion-zone, includes a gas-filled electrical discharge tube that is located within a tubular nose of the device and is pulse energized. The ultra-violet component of radiations from the zone and distinctive of the presence of flame in the afterburner, is transmitted to the discharge tube via a sapphire plano-convex lens, the infra-red component being attenuated by a thin gold-film coating on the planar face of the lens, whereby discharge takes place in the tube with each energizing pulse only while the flame is present. The sensitivity of the detecting device to ultra-violet radiation is enhanced by internal reflections from reflective coatings on the inner surface of the tubular nose and the glass envelope of the discharge tube. The count of a counter is advanced stepwise with each pulsing of the discharge tube towards a maximum count of 8 (or 16), and is reset to zero in response to each tube discharge so that the counter overflows only after the tube remains quiescent through more than 8 (or 16) consecutive pulsings. Overflow of the counter signifies positively the flame-out condition and initiates warning and relighting action by a control unit.

The air supply used for such purging is controlled adequately so the flow changes direction and particules are removed from the main flow of purge air by inertial separation prior to the time the air contacts the lens (28). Such air entrained particles might otherwise deposit on the lens (28). A flow control orifice (65) also may provide a secondary flow to carry the particle separated from the main flow out of the flow passageway (39).

Optical pyrometer sight tube assembly for controlling a gas turbine

Номер: CA1248358A
Автор: Richard E. Zachary
Принадлежит: Dow Chemical Co

Abstract A sight tube assembly, in combination with a sensing instrument, such as an optical pyrometer, for use in continuously monitoring the temperature of the first row of rotating blades in large gas turbines, particularly the type used in industry. Temperature data received by the pyrometer unit is fed to a control circuit, which regulates fuel input to the turbine to control the firing temperature. The key to obtaining reliable blade temperature data in the practice of this invention is the position of the sight tube in the tur-binej which enables the pyrometer to "view" the rotating blades along a direct line of sight that penetrates a hot gas duct, but not the turbine section of the engine.
