Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the field of helicopter fatigue test design, and relates to a method for preparing an upper platform test load spectrum. BACKGROUND
[0002] The helicopter mission profile is various, and the use is flexible. Most of the machine parts bear low cycle loads caused by take-off and landing and state conversion, and also bear high cycle loads caused by rotating parts such as rotors and tail rotors. Especially in the rotor installation area (such as the upper platform and the tail reduction installation platform), the above load characteristics are more obvious. Therefore, the traditional load spectrum preparation method mainly considering low cycle load cycles needs to be appropriately modified.
[0003] On the other hand, although the helicopter has been load tested, the test data is difficult to cover all the loads required by the upper platform test, which requires that the load spectrum preparation process of the upper platform test needs to modify the calculated load with the measured load data to obtain a test load spectrum that meets the actual use.
[0004] At present, there is no corresponding method to modify the test load spectrum. SUMMARY

[0021] According to the time proportion of each state formed by the task profile, the frequency in the rain flow counting result under each state is converted into the frequency under the flight profile.
[0022] Further, for the i-th state, the frequency n_s i,j under the flight profile is calculated according to the following formula:
[0023]
[0024] n_f i,j is the load frequency in the rain flow counting result; p i is the time proportion of the i-th state; t i is the completion time of the i-th state under the measured flight, and j is the order.
[0025] Further, based on the measured high and low cycle load spectrum, the high and low cycle damage ratio under the platform life requirement is compared to obtain the high and low cycle load ratio; the load in the preliminary low cycle load spectrum is enlarged according to the ratio to obtain the test load spectrum considering high cycle damage, including:
[0026] Calculating the load cycle in the load spectrum to the allowable number of times N i , calculating the high and low cycle life L under the fatigue property h And L l , so as to calculate the high and low cycle damage ratio k;

The specific steps are shown in the attached Figure 1 , and briefly described as follows:
[0045] [1] According to the mission profile, the mission segments are divided
[0046] According to the mission requirements and flight states in the mission profile, states with obvious distinction are merged and aggregated to form mission segments.
[0047] [2] Sort the states in the mission segment by category

[0059] Example 1
[0060] The following embodiment of the preparation of the upper platform test load spectrum of a certain type of aircraft will be further described in detail. The test steps are as follows:
[0061] [1] Divide the mission section according to the mission profile
[0062] According to the mission profile of this type, the following principles are used to divide the continuous states with obvious differences into mission sections:
[0063] 1) The states such as altitude and speed have obvious differences; the difference in altitude is less than the preset altitude difference, and the difference in speed is less than the preset speed difference;
[0064] 2) The purpose is obviously different;
[0065] Figure 2 This flight profile is divided into hovering, climbing, cruising, maneuvering and descending, a total of 5 mission sections.
[0066] [2] Sort the states in the mission section by category
[0067] First, sort the deterministic states in each mission section according to their occurrence;
[0068] Take the Appendix Figure 2Taking the cruise mission segment as an example, it is required to experience the process of flying-straightening-flying, and the deterministic state and sequence are: flying (H=900 m, V=150 km / h)-straightening (H=900 m, V=150 km / h, straightening slope angle 20°)-flying (H=900 m, V=150 km / h)
[0069] Secondly, for each non-deterministic state S i in each mission segment, the state is refined into S ji according to the flight profile;
[0070] In the above step, the S1 flying (H=900 m, V=150 km / h) state is refined in the flight profile according to the sideslip angle as:
[0071] S 11 flying (H=900 m, V=150 km / h, sideslip 0°)
[0072] S 21 flying (H=900 m, V=150 km / h, sideslip 5°)
[0073] S 31 flying (H=900 m, V=150 km / h, sideslip -5°)
[0074] …
[0075] S 91 flying (H=900 m, V=150 km / h, sideslip -35°)
[0076] Thirdly, for the non-deterministic refined state S ji , the non-deterministic state sequence is obtained according to the load low-high-low principle;
[0077] In the above step, the S1 flying sequence is:
[0078] S 11 flying (sideslip 0°)-S 21 flying (sideslip 5°)-S 11 flying (sideslip 0°)-S 31 flying (sideslip -5°)-…-S 91 flying (sideslip 35°)-…-S 31 flying (sideslip -5°)-S 11 flying (sideslip 0°)-S 21 flying (sideslip 5°)-S 11 flying (sideslip 0°)
[0079] [3] Rainflow is added to the load to obtain the test low-cycle spectrum
[0080] First, the upper platform load is listed according to the order of the previous step state to obtain the load sequence;
[0081] Secondly, the above load sequence is counted by rain flow, and the dynamic load is counted from large to small (F ai ,F si ,n i ), where F ai is the i-th order dynamic load, F si is the i-th order static load, n i is the i-th order frequency. If the i-th order dynamic load F ai If it is 1 / 10 of the first-order dynamic load (i.e., the maximum dynamic load), it will be discarded and not included in the load cycle;
[0082] right Figure 2 Typical mission profiles for rain flow post-load and sequence are shown in the attached Figure 3 shown.
[0083] [4] Obtain low-cycle load spectrum based on measured loads at key locations
[0084] First, the measured load data of the key point M1 on the upper platform is selected. After data conversion, deburring and other cleaning procedures, the maximum and minimum values of each state are taken to obtain the measured quasi-static load of each state. 11 Take level flight (H=900m, V=150km / h, sideslip 0°) as an example. The measured load in this state is shown in the attached figure. Figure 4 As shown, the state low cycle load is:
[0085] F max,11 =552,F min,11 =403
[0086] Secondly, according to the low-frequency state sequence formed in step 2, the low-frequency measured load spectrum is obtained.
[0087] [5] Obtain high cycle load spectrum based on measured loads at key locations
[0088] First, the measured load data of the key point M1 on the upper platform is selected. After data conversion, deburring and other cleaning procedures, the mean value of each state is taken to perform dynamic load rain flow, and the rain flow counting result (F) under each state (i) is obtained. ai,j ,F si,j ,n_f i,j ). 11 Taking level flight (H = 900m, V = 150km / h, sideslip 0°) as an example, the results of high-frequency dynamic load rain flow in this state are shown in Table 1:
[0089] Table 1
[0090] Serial number Dynamic load F ai,j ]] Static load F si,j ]] Frequency n_f i,j ]] 1 0.506001 476.1672 23 2 14.3875 465.2665 1 3 26.9977 485.6625 10 4 34.39417 489.6718 43 5 43.4163 483.9276 10
[0091] Secondly,
[0092]
[0093] where t i is the measured flight time for the state, and p Figure 4 is the proportion of the flight profile for the state S 11 . For the example of steady flight (H = 900 m, V = 150 km / h, sideslip 0°), t i = 1.56 s, and p i = 2.58%. Table 2 is the conversion of Table 1 to the flight profile:
[0094] Table 2
[0095] Serial number Dynamic load F ai,j ]]> Static load F si,j ]]> Frequency n_s i,j ]] 1 0.506001 476.1672 1369 2 14.3875 465.2665 60 3 26.9977 485.6625 595 4 34.39417 489.6718 2560 5 43.4163 483.9276 595
[0096] Finally, the repeated flight states are split, and if a state is repeated m times, then the proportion of the flight profile for each state is p i / m. According to the first two methods, the high-cycle load spectrum of the flight profile is obtained.
[0097] [6] Obtain the high-low cycle damage ratio according to the platform life requirement
[0098] First, assuming the fatigue limit F -1 , the allowable number of cycles N i is calculated for the load cycle (F ai , F si , n i ) in the load spectrum using the following formula.
[0099]
[0100] where A and a are material parameters determined according to the material grade and failure mode.
[0101] Second, the component life L is calculated for the fatigue characteristic using the following formula.
[0102]
[0103] Third, for the measured high and low cycle load spectrum, the corresponding life L is calculated according to different fatigue limits F -1 , and the fatigue limit F -1 -life L relationship under the high and low cycle load spectrum is obtained. The fatigue limit F -1 -life L relationship under the high and low cycle load spectrum at the key point M1 of the platform is shown in FIG. 4. Figure 5
[0104] Fourth, based on the fatigue limit F -1 -life L relationship under the high and low cycle load spectrum, the high and low cycle life L is calculated when the fatigue limit is F -1,i .h,i L l,i Total life is calculated as follows:
[0105]
[0106] Fifth step, iteratively calculate until life requirement is met, obtain fatigue limit F -1 high cycle life L h low cycle life L l High and low cycle damage ratio k is calculated as follows:
[0107]
[0108] The results of the key points M1 on the platform are shown in the attached Figure 5 When the life index is met, the fatigue limit F -1 = 200 με, the high cycle life L h = 1.2 x 10 5 h, the low cycle life L l = 1.6 x 10 4 h, and k = 0.13
[0109] [7] Modify the low cycle spectrum to obtain the test spectrum on the plateau
[0110] If k < 0.2, the load frequency in the test low cycle spectrum in step 3 is unchanged, and the load size is enlarged according to the following coefficient:
[0111] k' = 1 + k
[0112] The test load spectrum considering the influence of high cycle load is obtained.
[0113] If k ≥ 0.2, the fatigue limit F -1 that meets the life requirement obtained in step 6 is enlarged according to the following coefficient:
[0114] k' = 1 + k
[0115] According to the enlarged fatigue limit F - '1 = (1 + k) F -1 , the corresponding life L' is obtained from the relationship between the fatigue limit F -1 and life L in step 6. All load frequencies in the original load spectrum are enlarged according to the following coefficient:
[0116]
[0117] For this example, k = 0.13 < 0.2, so the load is enlarged, and the final test spectrum is shown in the attached Figure 6 .
