Abstract

The present application belongs to the technical field of aero-engine thrust prediction, and particularly relates to an intelligent thrust prediction and real-time early warning method for an aero-engine. The specific technical solution is as follows: the test parameter characteristics of the aero-engine are clustered according to measuring components and systems; feature selection is performed on the clustered parameters; component and system sub-networks are established; the component and system sub-networks are connected according to the actual working matching relationship of the aero-engine; a feature mapping network is added at the final output end of the aero-engine digital engineering model; the network model is trained using test data generated in the test process of the aero-engine, and a real-time thrust prediction model and a benchmark thrust prediction model are obtained. The physical architecture of the aero-engine is integrated into the intelligent network design, efficient fusion of multiple systems in the digital space can be achieved, the digital model can closely track the performance of the aero-engine and reflect individual differences, and thus the engine thrust performance can be accurately tracked.
