Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of aviation engine control, and in particular relates to a power control method and system for a high-speed response engine power turbine shaft. Background Art

[0002] The turboshaft engine numerical control system is used to control the turboshaft engine. It is necessary to limit the output power of the turboshaft engine power turbine shaft to prevent the torque of the engine power turbine shaft from exceeding its allowable limit value or exceeding the input torque limit of the helicopter main reducer, so as to ensure that the engine works safely within the working envelope. At present, the turboshaft engine numerical control system controls the engine state by adjusting the engine fuel flow rate to keep the speed of the engine power turbine shaft constant at 100% speed or other specified values. After the engine enters the idle slow state, the higher the engine fuel flow rate, the higher the speed Ng of the engine gas generator, and the higher the output torque and output power of the engine power turbine; conversely, the smaller the engine fuel flow rate, the lower the speed Ng of the engine gas generator, and the lower the output torque and output power of the engine power turbine.

[0003] One or more torque sensors are installed on the output shaft of the turboshaft engine power turbine, and the torque value of the turboshaft engine power turbine output shaft is calculated by the output signal of the torque sensor. After the torque value of the turboshaft engine power turbine output shaft reaches its limit requirement value, the engine is not allowed to increase its state and output more power to avoid over-torque of the engine power turbine shaft; or after the torque of the engine power turbine output shaft exceeds the limit value, the engine state is reduced to reduce its output power. The existing method of limiting the output power of the power turbine shaft is mainly achieved by limiting the speed Ng of the engine gas generator: first, the torque function f(Mkp 测量值 ,MKP 限制值 ) is converted into a limiting function of the rotation speed Ng; then, the torque of the engine power turbine output shaft is indirectly regulated by limiting the rotation speed Ng of the engine gas generator, so that the output power of the engine power turbine output shaft does not exceed the limit. However, the above limiting method has the following disadvantages:

[0004] 1) The control method is complex: the existing method needs to convert the torque of the engine power turbine output shaft into the engine gas generator Ng through the PID control method; then limit the speed of the engine gas generator Ng, indirectly realizing the limitation of the torque of the engine power turbine output shaft;

[0005] 2) Large control error: According to the engine output power calculation formula, the engine output power is affected by two parameters: the speed and torque of the engine power turbine shaft. Therefore, even if the torque does not exceed the limit value, when the speed is higher, the output power of the engine power turbine output shaft will exceed the limit value;

[0006] 3) The power limiting process responds slowly: When the engine power turbine shaft is transiently over-torqued, the limit value converted into the speed Ng after adjustment is higher than the speed Ng adjustment demand value caused by the transient static droop of the engine power turbine shaft speed. Therefore, torque limitation will not be performed. It is necessary to wait until the engine power turbine shaft speed adjustment is stable before responding to the torque limitation, which will cause a delay in the adjustment response. Summary of the invention

[0025] Step S23: Calculate the current engine fuel flow limit value Wf 限制值 =Wfb+WfPI, limiting the fuel flow rate to not exceed the engine fuel flow rate limit value Wf 限制值 .

[0043] The invention has the advantages of simple control method, fast response speed, high control accuracy and wide application. The invention directly controls the engine fuel flow rate without conversion through intermediate links, and has a fast response speed; when calculating the torque limit value, the engine power turbine speed is introduced, so that the accuracy of the engine power turbine shaft power limit is higher.

[0044] Embodiment 2:

[0048] ③ Collect the torque of the turboshaft engine power turbine shaft;

[0049] ④Calculate the current Mkp 测量值 -MKP 限制值 The deviation value ε(t) is used to calculate PI based on the deviation value ε(t) to obtain the result WfPI:

[0050]

[0051] ⑤ Torque limit value MKP based on the power turbine shaft 限制值 , determine the engine fuel flow base value Wfb;

[0052] ⑥Finally, add the PI calculation result WfPI and the engine fuel flow base value Wfb corresponding to the current limit value to obtain the current engine fuel flow limit value Wf 限制值 =Wfb+WfPI, thereby limiting the engine fuel flow to not exceed this limit value, making the engine power turbine shaft torque not exceed the limit value, and ultimately achieving the power turbine shaft power limitation.

The collection and calculation of the current engine turbine shaft speed is the same as the prior art, so it will not be repeated here.

[0054] Among them, Mkp 测量值 The current engine power turbine shaft torque value Mkp collected and calculated by the turboshaft engine numerical control system. The current engine power turbine shaft torque value Mkp collection and calculation is the same as the prior art, so it will not be repeated.

[0059] The torque limit basic fuel flow calculation module has a built-in two-dimensional data table for calculating the current MKP 限制值 The corresponding engine fuel flow basic value Wfb is obtained by the engine bench test method when the engine power turbine shaft output torque reaches MKP 限制值 The fuel flow rate at this time is a mature technology, so it will not be repeated here. The data table shows the corresponding engine fuel flow rate Wf under different power turbine shaft torque Mkp of the engine measured by the pre-engine bench test method, one dimension of which is the engine power turbine shaft torque Mkp, and the other dimension is the engine fuel flow rate Wf.

[0060] The fuel flow limit value calculation module calculates the current Mkp obtained by the torque measurement module. 测量值 and the MKP of the previous moment 限制值 Subtract to get the deviation value ε(t), and use the calculation formula Get the fuel flow correction value; add the fuel flow correction value WfPI to the engine fuel flow base value Wfb corresponding to the current MKP limit value calculated by the torque limit basic fuel flow calculation module to get the current engine fuel flow limit value Wf 限制值 =Wfb+WfPI.

[0061] The fuel flow control module calculates Wf based on the fuel flow limit value calculation module 限制值Control the fuel regulator of the turboshaft engine to change the temperature and pressure of the combustion chamber, so that the power of the fuel turbine and the power turbine is reduced according to the reduction of the fuel flow limit value, and finally the output power of the turboshaft engine power turbine shaft is limited when it exceeds the limit value.
