Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of aero-engine design, and in particular relates to a method for correcting aerodynamic parameters of a fan component test outlet taking into account intake distortion. Background Art

[0002] The operating environment of aircraft engines is relatively harsh. Fan components usually work under a distorted flow field with uneven distribution of inlet total pressure. It is necessary to obtain the average aerodynamic parameters such as outlet total pressure and total temperature under inlet distortion in fan component tests. For fan component tests under inlet distortion, it is necessary to arrange total pressure and total temperature probes at the outlet section to obtain the distribution of aerodynamic parameters such as total pressure and total temperature. In order to obtain the aerodynamic parameter distribution of the fan component outlet section as accurately as possible, it is hoped that more measurement points will be used. However, when measuring at multiple points, the probe has a greater impact on the airflow field and will produce a significant blocking effect. Usually, 6 to 8 total pressure and total temperature composite probes are arranged at the fan outlet to obtain aerodynamic parameters. The current measurement method cannot comprehensively consider the influence of the upstream fan blade wake and the uneven distribution of aerodynamic parameters caused by inlet distortion. The correction method for fan outlet aerodynamic parameters under inlet distortion in the journal "Analysis and Correction of Fan Inlet Pressure Distortion Test Performance" (Gas Turbine Test and Research, 2017(04):16-22) only considers circumferential averaging. Although the influence of inlet distortion is considered, the influence of upstream blade wake cannot be considered. The method for measuring outlet aerodynamic parameters in the aviation industry standard of the People's Republic of China, "Test Method for Aerodynamic Performance of Aviation Gas Turbine Engine Compressors" (HB 7115-2020), only mentions the use of no less than six multi-point probes for measurement, and the uneven factors along the pitch direction should be considered, that is, the influence of the upstream blade wake is considered, but the uneven factors of aerodynamic parameters along the circumferential direction during the intake distortion test are not considered. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to solve the above problems, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for measuring and correcting the test outlet aerodynamic parameters of fan components under intake distortion conditions, in view of the comprehensive influence of the circumferential unevenness caused by the upstream blade wake and intake distortion on the outlet aerodynamic parameters of fan components.

[0007] S3: Conduct fan component tests under intake distortion to obtain aerodynamic parameters measured by multiple measurement probes;

[0008] S4: Based on the uniform flow database and functional relationship obtained in S2, the aerodynamic parameters obtained in S3 are corrected to obtain the surface average aerodynamic parameters of the fan component outlet cross section under intake distortion.
