Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of aircraft engine fan and compressor blades, and specifically relates to a method for designing geometric dimensions of blade grinding for repair based on fatigue assessment. Background Art

[0002] During the service life of aircraft engines, it is inevitable that sand, metal fragments, birds and other foreign objects will be inhaled, causing foreign object damage (FOD) to fan and compressor blades [1, 2]. Foreign object damage has become the most important factor affecting the service safety of fan and compressor blades. For small-sized foreign object damage notches, mechanical processing (hereinafter referred to as "machining") or manual grinding is usually used for repair [3]. However, the current grinding size is mainly based on research based on engineering experience, and for new models of blades, it is also based on the experience of existing mature models, and there is still a lack of independent scientific experience. In many cases, it is copied from other models, but the sizes of the blades of the two are different. Therefore, for the determination of the grinding repair size of the damaged notch, there is an urgent need for a method that can be applied to the formulation of grinding repair standards for damaged blades of different models.

[0003] However, the current maintenance standards for blades damaged by foreign objects still follow the maintenance standards for foreign engine blades, and there is a lack of scientific research on the formulation of maintenance standards. However, blades of different models have different configurations and sizes, and unified maintenance standards cannot guarantee that their mechanical properties such as fatigue performance after repair meet the requirements, or the standards are too strict, resulting in waste.

Therefore, this method designs the notch for the elliptical shape and the current standard grinding solution with a width-to-depth ratio; S2: Design and process the simulated blade so that its leading edge position is consistent with that of the real blade. Grind it according to step 1 and ensure that the width-to-depth ratio is consistent with that of the real blade to form a notched simulated blade; S3: Evaluate the fatigue performance of the notched simulated blade, conduct a vibration fatigue test, and measure the fatigue strength at point A; S4: Obtain the relationship between grinding size and fatigue performance and the quantitative theoretical model; S5: Design and process real blades; S6: Evaluate the fatigue performance of real blades with notches, calculate fatigue strength based on critical distance theory, and conduct vibration modal experimental research; S7: Compare with the blade dynamic stress and finally determine the grinding and repair size.

A variety of evaluation methods are combined, including finite element simulation, vibration fatigue test and critical distance theory, to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the evaluation results. A variety of influencing factors are taken into account, including notch shape, size, position, material properties, etc., so as to more comprehensively evaluate the fatigue performance of the blade.

[0024] 2. The present invention breaks through the limitation that traditional maintenance standards cannot cover all types of blades. By establishing a regular model for the influence of notch size on fatigue performance, this method can formulate personalized grinding size standards based on the damage conditions of blades of different models to ensure that the fatigue performance of the repaired blades meets the design requirements. According to the damage conditions of different blades, personalized grinding size standards can be formulated to avoid a "one-size-fits-all" maintenance method, thereby improving maintenance efficiency and blade service life. Excessive grinding can be avoided, thereby reducing maintenance costs. At the same time, this method can also increase the service life of the blades, thereby reducing the frequency of blade replacement and further reducing maintenance costs.

Considering the uneven stress distribution along the thickness direction of the structure, it is necessary to introduce a correction factor that considers the bending effect. η According to the measured σ B_Test , the value of each specimen can be obtained by iterative calculation using formula (3) R C .
