BACKGROUND

[0002] The casing structure of an aero turbine engine is usually assembled by multiple casings, is the main load-bearing component in the engine, and is the key component for bearing load and containment in the aero engine. The casing is usually a thin-walled cylindrical structure, and there are many uncertainties in the machining and manufacturing process, thereby causing certain uncertainty in the dynamic characteristics of the casing structure, and finally affecting the dynamic characteristics of the rotor-support-casing whole system of the aero turbine engine. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a dynamic uncertainty analysis model of the casing assembly structure based on a small amount of test data during the design stage of the aero turbine engine, and analyze the dynamic characteristics of the casing structure.

[0003] In recent decades, polynomial chaos expansion has become a main technique for quantifying the uncertainty of system response.

[0043] The application will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The following examples are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the application, and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the application.

[0044] In the method for analyzing the uncertainty of the connecting case assembly structure based on the non-invasive chaotic polynomial provided in the application, the variation range of the modal frequencies of the connecting case assembly structure is taken as the analysis target, the dynamic model of the connecting case components and the dynamic model of the connecting case assembly structure are established, the probability distribution model of the fitting size and the tightening torque is obtained according to the experimental samples, the uncertainty analysis proxy model of the target quantity is constructed based on the non-invasive chaotic polynomial, and the accurate and rapid analysis of the variation range of the modal frequencies of the connecting case assembly structure is realized.

[0045] The following takes the fan and compressor connecting case assembly structure of an engine as an example to describe the method for analyzing the uncertainty of the connecting case assembly structure based on the chaotic polynomial provided in the application.

[0046] The finite element model and the geometric model of the fan and compressor connecting case are shown in Figure 5 and Figure 7 The fan case and the compressor case are connected through bolts, and there are 20 bolts at the connecting position, and the bolt specification is M4.

[0047] (1) The modal test of the fan and compressor connecting case is performed, and the test is shown in Figure 2 The test point layout is consistent with the single component test, and three acceleration sensors are arranged to identify the possible heavy modal characteristics. The frequency response function obtained by the test of the fan and compressor connecting case is shown in Figure 3 The frequency range of the test is 0-2000Hz. The modal frequency and mode shape of the test before 2000Hz are shown in Figure 4 The thin layer is used to replace the bolt, and the finite element model of the fan and compressor connecting case is shown in Figure 5 The connecting stiffness is 4.91e9N / m, and the thin layer elastic modulus is 6.53e9Pa by the theoretical calculation formula of the thin layer unit elastic modulus. The finite element model of the fan and compressor connecting case is established, and the modal frequency and mode shape before 2000Hz are calculated.

[0048] (2) In the assembly connection modeling of the casing, thin layer elements are often used instead of bolt connections to simplify the model and reduce the difficulty of calculation. When there is a difference in the fitting size between the fan and the compressor casing, it will cause different connection surfaces between the fan casing and the compressor casing, resulting in uncertainty in the stiffness of the casing connection, and the equivalent thin layer element connection stiffness is also uncertain. The gap sizes of the five different fitting sizes of the compressor are 0.014 mm, 0.0064 mm, -0.0096 mm, -0.0189 mm and -0.0034 mm. The modal frequencies of the five compressor and fan connection casings within 2000 Hz are tested, the distribution of the modal frequencies under the uncertainty of different fitting sizes is analyzed, the casing connection stiffness and the elastic modulus of the thin layer element are identified through the modal frequencies, and whether the frequencies meet the normal distribution under different fitting sizes is determined. The different fitting sizes are shown in Table 1.

[0049] Table 1 Distribution parameters of different fitting sizes

[0050]

[0051] The modal frequencies of the first five different fitting size compressor and fan connection casings within 2000 Hz are shown in Table 2.

[0053]

[0054] (3) Assuming that the fitting size follows a normal distribution, the five fitting sizes meet the normal distribution, the mean is -0.0023 mm, and the variance is 0.0001378 mm. 1000 times of sampling are performed on the fitting size, the normal distribution curve of the fitting size is shown in Figure 6 , and the fitting size distribution interval is [-0.04 0.03] mm.

[0055] A geometric model of the fan and compressor connection casing containing solid thin layer elements is established, the thickness of the thin layer is 1 mm, and the geometric model is shown in Figure 7 . Based on the theory of connection stiffness and thin layer element elastic modulus, the initial connection stiffness of the casing is calculated to be 4.91×10 9 N / m, and the elastic modulus is 6.53×10 9 Pa. The modal frequencies of the connection casing within 2000 Hz are calculated based on the thin layer elastic modulus, and are shown in Table 3.

[0057] Order 1 2 3 4 Frequency (Hz) 815.55 816.3 1564.1 1564.1

[0058] The first order and the second order of the fan compressor connecting casing are heavy modes, and the third order and the fourth order are heavy modes, the second order mode frequency obtained by test is used to identify the casing connecting stiffness and the thin layer elastic modulus, and the identified casing connecting stiffness and the thin layer unit elastic modulus are shown in Table 4.

[0061] The fan compressor casing connecting stiffness and the thin layer unit elastic modulus are in normal distribution, the normal distribution curves of the connecting stiffness and the thin layer elastic modulus are shown in Figure 8 and Figure 9 The distribution interval of the connecting stiffness is [1.175 6.966]×10 9 N / m, and the distribution interval of the thin layer elastic modulus is [0.793 10.22]×10 9 Pa.

[0062] (4) The order of the chaotic polynomial is selected, and the chaotic polynomial expansion term Ψ=[ψ0 ψ1 … ψ P ] is generated according to the probability distribution of the matching size and the tightening torque, and P is the number of polynomial expansion terms:

[0063] (5) The coefficients c of each chaotic polynomial expansion term are calculated by using the Bayesian compressed sensing method;

[0064]

[0065] This step includes the following sub-steps:

[0066] a) Select the base function ψ i (initially corresponding to the constant regression quantity);

[0067] b) Update γ i in the following formula;

[0068]

[0069] c) Update μ and Σ by using the following formula;

[0070]

[0071] d) Update s i and q i by using the following formula;

[0072]

[0073] e) Update λ by using the following formula:

[0074]

[0075] Chaotic polynomial model for establishing uncertainty of casing assembly structure

[0076] Y = Ψc (6)

[0077] Y is each order modal frequency of the casing assembly structure.

[0078] (6) Based on the constructed chaotic polynomial, the modal frequency of the fan compressor connecting casing within 2000 Hz is analyzed under 1000 thin layer elastic modulus sample intervals.

[0079] (7) Steps (4)-(6) are repeated until the analysis result converges. Figure 10 The first order modal frequency distribution interval is [808.981 6.15] Hz, the second order modal frequency distribution interval is [809.678 16.91] Hz, the third order modal frequency distribution interval is [1551.091 565.6] Hz, and the fourth order modal frequency distribution interval is [1551.091 565.6] Hz. Figure 10 It can be seen from the above table that under 1000 sample spaces, the first four order modal frequencies of the fan compressor connecting casing are left skewed distribution.

[0080] In the casing assembly structure uncertainty analysis method based on non-invasive chaotic polynomial, the change of the matching size and the tightening torque is considered, the change range of the modal frequency of the casing assembly structure is analyzed, and only 5 groups of tests are needed. Compared with the 100 times of tests required by the traditional Monte Carlo method, the analysis time is shortened by 95%, and the analysis efficiency is greatly improved. As shown in Figure 11 and 12 The accuracy of the method is basically consistent with the results of the traditional Monte Carlo method, and the superiority of the method is obvious.
