[0002] The dynamic characteristics of an aeroengine rotor system are crucial to its high-speed development, stability, and reliability. Key parameters for evaluating rotor dynamics include rotor vibration, critical speed distribution, and structural strength. Aeroengine rotors typically operate in high-temperature environments, where deformation, changes in stress distribution, and changes in connection state directly impact rotor vibration, critical speed distribution, and structural strength. Understanding the internal stress levels at the rotor connection structure under different temperatures, how stress changes with temperature, and changes in connection state can effectively assess the impact of ambient temperature on rotor dynamics, connection strength, and connection stiffness.

Then, the cover of the vacuum box 27 is opened and the turbine disk assembly 23 is cooled to room temperature.

[0052] Strain measurement Four strain measurement points were set on the first stage disk of the power turbine ( ~ ), strain gauge 252 test and lead diagram see Figure 12 , see the location diagram Figure 14 , the layout of strain measurement points is shown in Table 1.

[0053] Table 1 shows the layout of strain measurement points

[0054] The connection part of the first-stage disk of the power turbine undergoes thermal expansion under high temperature and is constrained by the assembly of surrounding parts, resulting in thermal constraint deformation. At the same time, the steady-state mechanical load caused by initial interference, torque, etc. will also cause deformation of the measuring point position. The sensitive grid resistance and sensitivity coefficient of the strain gauge will also cause steady-state and transient heat output due to the rapid change of high temperature.

[0055] The strain gauge value calculation formula is as follows: ; in, Represents the mechanical strain due to steady-state mechanical loading; in this test, the mechanical strain due to steady-state mechanical loading is zero. Thermal constraint strain (the main focus) refers to the strain caused by mutual compression or stretching of connected parts due to inconsistent deformation after thermal expansion. In this test, it is mainly near the bolt holes. Due to the differences in thermal expansion coefficients between the power turbine first-stage disk, the flattened bolts on both sides, and the hexagonal self-locking nuts, the free expansion is thermally constrained and strain is generated. Indicates the instantaneous temperature strain heat output, which refers to the heat output of the strain gauge 252 caused by the instantaneous temperature difference between the sensitive grid and the test piece surface when the heat flow passes through. The influence of the instantaneous temperature strain error can be basically eliminated by keeping the temperature for a long time (more than 30 minutes) in steady state. Indicates the steady-state heat output, which refers to the heat output of the strain gauge 252 due to the free expansion of the strain gauge 252 and the test piece material and the change of the resistance temperature coefficient of the strain gauge 252 with temperature (the total proportion can reach more than 98%). In this test, the strain measurement point ( ~ ) positions are attached with two strain gauges 252 in parallel to form a half-bridge test bridge circuit for correction. That is, the strain gauge 252 to be tested deforms with the first turbine disc 231 (see the installation diagram for details). Figure 13 ), the compensation strain gauge 252 does not deform with the first turbine disk 231 (see the installation diagram Figure 14 ), is simply fixed on the first turbine disk 231 to sense the strain caused by temperature, thereby compensating the steady-state heat output of the test point and the heat output brought by the lead material.

After attachment, a layer of protective adhesive (first coating 281) (Model EPOXYLITE 813) is applied to the outer surface of the strain gauge 252 to protect it. After this, the strain gauge 252 is placed in an oven (175°C) for curing twice (4 hours each). To prevent the strain gauge 252 from failure due to the pulling force of the strain measurement wires, a titanium alloy pressing sheet (0.18 mm thick) is spot-welded to the first turbine disk 231 next to the strain gauge 252.
