Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of aero-engines, and particularly relates to a gear whole-machine state resonance speed correction method of an aero-engine. BACKGROUND

[0002] The gear transmission system is an important component part of the mechanical system of an aero-fan and aero-jet engine (including a central transmission device, an engine accessory case and an aircraft accessory case). The central transmission and the engine accessory case are connected through a central transmission rod, and the engine accessory case is connected with the aircraft accessory case through a flexible shaft. When the engine starts, a starter installed on the aircraft accessory case transmits output power to the high-pressure rotor of the engine through the gear system, the flexible shaft and the transmission rod and the like, so that the engine starts. When the engine normally works, each accessory installed on the aircraft accessory case and the engine accessory case extracts power from the high-pressure rotor of the engine through the aircraft accessory case, the engine accessory case and the central transmission and the like, so as to ensure normal work. The main shortcomings are as follows: the working temperature range of the gear of the aero-engine transmission system is 100-200 DEG C, the temperature causes the change of the elastic modulus of the material, directly affects the natural frequency of the gear, and thus affects the calculation result of the resonance speed; in addition, the actual machining gear has a size deviation, and the actual machining size affects the natural frequency of the gear, and also affects the calculation result of the resonance speed. The prior art scheme does not consider the influence of the temperature and the machining tolerance on the calculation of the resonance speed, so that the calculated resonance speed of the gear is greatly deviated from the actual value, and there is a risk that the resonance point still exists in the working speed range after the gear frequency modulation design is completed according to the calculation result of the resonance speed, and the gear may be resonated and fatigued in work, so as to affect the functionality and reliability of the aero-engine. We have once encountered such a problem in the design process. The calculated resonance speed of a certain vibration mode of the bevel gear of a certain engine is 2% higher than the maximum use speed after the frequency modulation design, and it is considered to meet the design requirements. However, vibration fatigue failure occurs in the use process of the field, which leads to large-area engine flight stop, and the reason is that the calculated resonance speed does not consider the temperature and the size tolerance. SUMMARY

[0023] K min =60×f dmin(Z±m)-60×f d (Z±m);
