Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technology for analyzing the failure mechanism of cracks in aero-engine blades, specifically to a method and system for simulating and analyzing the dynamic response of three-dimensional tip clearance of a cracked blade. Background Technology
[0002] The aircraft engine is the most critical component in an aircraft structure, serving as the source of its flight power and often referred to as the "heart" of the aircraft. As a core part of the engine's functional transition, the health of the engine blades directly affects its safety and stability. The operating environment of aircraft engine blades is extremely harsh, often subjected to enormous centrifugal loads, aerodynamic loads, thermal loads, and alternating loads caused by vibration. This makes the blades highly susceptible to fatigue cracks and even fracture, seriously jeopardizing the operational safety of the aircraft engine.
[0003] Tip clearance is one of the key parameters of aero-engines. Its size and variation not only affect engine efficiency but also reflect the health status of the blades. Studying the mechanism of tip clearance variation is crucial for aero-engine blade condition monitoring and fault diagnosis. Currently, research on the mechanism of aero-engine tip clearance variation mainly involves establishing simplified mathematical models of tip clearance or using finite element simulation methods. Furthermore, most studies only consider the radial clearance of the blade, which includes relatively limited information about the blade's condition. In reality, when a blade develops cracks, it undergoes bending and torsional deformation in three-dimensional space, resulting in a three-dimensional tip clearance characteristic.
[0004] To study the dynamic characteristics of three-dimensional tip clearance in a cracked blade from a dynamic perspective, it is first necessary to establish a dynamic model of the cracked blade. Currently, aero-engine blades are typically simplified as cantilever beams or thin shells, and the crack is equated to a spring, thus establishing a dynamic model of the cracked blade based on beam theory or plate and shell theory. Although some literature has studied the dynamic characteristics of the cracked blade itself, it has not linked the blade's dynamic characteristics to the dynamic response of the three-dimensional tip clearance, thus lacking research on the dynamic characteristics of three-dimensional tip clearance in aero-engines. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the shortcomings and deficiencies in the dynamics aspects of existing analyses of the three-dimensional tip clearance variation mechanism of aero-engines, and the inability of existing dynamic models of cracked blades to analyze the dynamic characteristics of the three-dimensional tip clearance of aero-engines, the present invention aims to provide a simulation analysis method and system for the dynamic response of three-dimensional tip clearance of cracked blades.
