Experiments and tests run through the entire production cycle from components to installation, and the test bench measurement benchmarks used in each level of testing have an important impact on the performance indicator evaluation of the tested products. In the past, when conducting aircraft engine mechanical hydraulic product test bench calibration work, standard test pieces were generally used as the loading units of the test bench. However, the standard test piece is a complex system that integrates mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic systems. Daily maintenance is complex and the maintenance cost is high. In addition, due to the multi-system coupling of the standard test piece, its measurement results are difficult to return to the accurate definition of the physical quantity, the measurement results are of low accuracy, and it is difficult to maintain the stability of the performance of the calibrated test bench.

[0027] According to one aspect of an embodiment of the present invention, a design method of a standard loading assembly for test bench performance verification is provided, comprising:

[0036] Furthermore, the tolerance range of the target pressure difference flow performance curve a is determined according to the test accuracy of the calibrated test bench and / or user requirements.

[0038] Step S5: verifying the physical parameters of the standard loading component;

[0040] Step S7: Perform performance test on the calibrated test bench and draw a pressure difference flow curve c of the standard loading component according to the test results.

[0043] Example

[0044] like Figure 1-3 As shown in the figure, the marked parameter L1 of the throttling element 5 represents the length of the throttling element, L2 represents the length of the throttling section, L3 and L4 represent the axial length of the extension section, d represents the design diameter of the throttling hole, d1 represents the diameter of the front straight section, d2 represents the diameter of the front edge of the throttling hole, d3 represents the diameter of the rear edge of the throttling hole, and d4 represents the diameter of the rear straight section.

[0045] The number of standard loading components is determined according to the performance range of the test bench being calibrated. It can be 1 piece or 1 group. The components of each standard loading component cannot be mixed and must be stored separately.

[0046] The import and export of standard loading components must be clear and cannot be reversed.

[0047] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and functions of the present invention clearer and easier to understand, the present invention is further explained below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods, wherein steps S1 to S4 are the standard loading component design process, and steps S5 to S8 are the test bench performance verification process.

[0048] S1: Determine the performance range of the test bench to be tested.

[0049] S2: The pressure difference and flow rate in the performance range of the calibrated test bench determined in step S1 are used as the horizontal and vertical coordinates in the coordinate system, respectively, to establish a target pressure difference and flow rate curve a. The standard loading component is structurally designed according to the target pressure difference and flow rate curve:

[0050] (1) The number of standard loading components is determined according to the performance range of the test bench to be calibrated and can be one piece or a group.

[0051] (2) Design the structure of the throttling element 5:

[0052] The Reynolds number must be designed before structural design. In formula (1), Re is the Reynolds number, ρ and μ are the density and kinematic viscosity of the test medium, and v and L represent the flow velocity and characteristic length of the component respectively. When Re < 2000, the fluid motion is in a laminar state. Based on this,

[0053]

[0054] Therefore

[0055]

[0056] Confirm attachment Figure 2When the length of the middle throttling section is greater than 4 times the aperture (L2 / d≥4), the flow rate can be calculated by the following formula:

[0057]

[0058] in:

[0059] Q——flow rate; ΔP——pressure difference; μ——liquid kinematic viscosity; ρ——liquid density; d——hole diameter; L2——hole length.

[0060] According to the flow velocity and characteristic length limiting conditions of formula (1) and formula (2) and the calculated d value, one or a group of d values ​​can be obtained, and the parameters L1, L2, L3, L4, d1, and d4 are set respectively, wherein L2 / L3 ≥ 6 is preferred, d1 and d4 should be consistent with the inner diameters of the inlet joint 1 and the outlet joint 6 respectively, L3 and L4 generally take the same value, L1 is the total length of the throttling element 5, which should meet the installation length requirement of the throttling locking nut, and L1 is greater than or equal to the sum of L2, L3 and L4;

[0061] (3) Determine the flow coefficient: flow coefficient C z It is usually related to the design, material and fluid properties of the throttling element. An approximate flow coefficient value can be determined through experimental data.

[0062] (4) According to the actual test medium flow rate of the test bench to be verified, the Reynolds number of the throttling element of the designed standard loading assembly is calculated according to formula (1) to ensure that the medium in this section is in a laminar flow state;

[0063] (5) Use CFD simulation software to establish a flow field model according to the physical parameters of the throttling element 5, set the boundary conditions of the model according to the flow rate, pressure and physical parameters of the test medium when the calibrated test bench is actually working, and calculate through simulation whether the pressure difference flow performance of the designed throttling element is within the tolerance range of the target pressure difference flow performance curve a. If it meets the design requirements, perform physical processing and execute step S3. If it does not meet the requirements, reset the values ​​of parameters L1, L2, L3, d1, and d4. Among them, the tolerance range of the target pressure difference flow performance curve a is determined according to the test accuracy of the calibrated test bench and user requirements.

[0064] S3: Obtain test data: Install the designed standard loading component on the target test bench for testing, determine whether its processed physical parameters are out of tolerance based on the test results, and draw the test pressure difference flow curve b.

[0065] S4: Verify the performance of the component: compare the test pressure difference flow curve b drawn by the test results with the designed pressure difference flow curve a. If the comparison result is within the tolerance range, it is considered that the physical parameters of the component can be solidified, and it is used as a special standard loading component for the target test bench for test bench calibration. Its physical parameters (including: component weight, d1, d4, L2, d2, d3 of the throttling element 5) are used as its own calibration parameters, and the test data curve b is used as the standard calibration data of the target test bench.

[0066] like Figure 3 As shown, S5: Verify the physical parameters of the standard loading component: The physical parameters of the standard loading component need to be verified each time the test bench is verified. The purpose is to avoid wear, blockage, deformation, etc. of the component during repeated use, which may affect its performance.

[0067] S6: If the physical parameter verification of the standard loading component passes, it is installed on the calibrated test bench.

[0068] S7: Perform performance assessment on the calibrated test bench and draw the pressure difference flow curve c of the standard loading component based on the test results.

[0069] S8: Compare the pressure differential flow curve c drawn according to the test results with the pressure differential flow curve b of the standard calibration data of the target test bench. If the comparison result passes, it can be determined that the performance calibration of the test bench has passed. If the comparison result exceeds the tolerance range, it is determined that the performance calibration of the test bench has failed.

[0070] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, and the present invention is described in detail. The unexplained part is a conventional technology. However, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention. The protection scope of the present invention shall be based on the protection scope of the claims.
