Design and Development of Turbodrill Blade Used in Crystallized Section

Abstract EN

Turbodrill is a type of hydraulic axial turbomachinery which has a multistage blade consisting of stators and rotors.

In this paper, a turbodrill blade that can be applied in crystallized section under high temperature and pressure conditions is developed.

On the basis of Euler equations, the law of energy transfer is analyzed and the output characteristics of turbodrill blade are proposed.

Moreover, considering the properties of the layer and the bole-hole conditions, the radical size, the geometrical dimension, and the blade profile are optimized.

A computational model of a single-stage blade is built on the ANSYS CFD into which the three-dimensional model of turbodrill is input.

In light of the distribution law of the pressure and flow field, the functions of the turbodrill blade are improved and optimized.

The turbodrill blade optimization model was verified based on laboratory experiments.

The results show that the design meets the deep hard rock mineral exploration application and provides good references for further study.
