Problems solved by technology

Among them, the positioning method of the preform in the mold has been disclosed through the application number CN201711345855.8. However, due to the structural complexity of the composite fan blade, before the mold is closed, even if the preform and the mold are positioned, the preform and the mold The profile cannot be fully fitted in place; at the same time, due to the limitation of the weaving process, the thickness of the blade weaving prefabricated body is different from the theoretical thickness of the blade, which is usually thicker than the theoretical thickness. Surface secondary bonding and compaction phenomenon
Therefore, during the mold closing process, the secondary bonding between the preform and the smooth mold surface and the structural deformation caused by the local compaction of the preform will cause the pre

Abstract

The invention belongs to a liquid molding technology of resin matrix composites and relates to a resin transfer molding (RTM) method for a composite blade. According to the RTM method, by adjusting the compacted amounts, of a blade perform, in the margin areas of an upper half mold and a lower half mold, the compacted amounts are allowed to be higher than the compacted amounts, of the blade preform, in the molding area of the upper half mold and the lower half mold to increase the compaction degree, of the blade preform, in a peripheral margin area, so as to prevent the blade preform from moving in the mold closing process and increase the qualification rate of the braided composite blade molded by RTM; by adjusting the surface roughness degrees of the margin areas, of the upper half moldand the lower half mold, for blade molding, the surface roughness degrees are allowed to be higher than the roughness degrees of the molding areas of the upper half mold and the lower half mold to improve the capacity of preventing displacement of the blade preform in the peripheral margin area, so as to prevent the blade preform from moving during the mold closing process; and by increasing the numbers of surface bulges in the margin areas, of the upper half mold and the lower half mold, for blade molding, the capacity of preventing displacement of the blade preform is further improved, so asto fully ensure that the blade preform is prevented from moving in the mold closing process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the resin-based composite material liquid forming technology, and relates to an RTM forming method of a composite material blade. Background technique [0002] Modern turbofan aero-engines are constantly developing towards high bypass ratio, high thrust, low fuel consumption, low noise, high safety and high reliability. In order to increase the bypass ratio of the engine, it is necessary to use larger fan blades, which makes the weight of the fan section of the engine account for an increasing proportion of the total weight of the engine. Fan blades made of traditional titanium alloy materials have gradually been unable to meet the performance requirements of modern high-performance turbofan engines with large bypass ratios. Therefore, reducing the weight of fan blades has become one of the key problems that must be solved in the development of high performance engines. Resin-based composite materials have excellent character...
