Description

Technical Field

[0002] The parameter design and dynamic analysis of the aviation transmission system are of vital importance in the aviation industry and national defense science and technology. For aviation engine technology, the main shaft bearing is an important component to ensure the operation of the aircraft engine rotor. It is at the "top of the pyramid" in the field of bearings and can be called the "heart" of the aircraft engine.

[0003] As an important component of the aviation transmission system, the bearing supports the rotor to operate at high speed. Its dynamic stiffness has a huge impact on the stiffness of the entire system. Once the rotor fails, the operating accuracy of the entire transmission system will be reduced, the vibration amplitude will increase, and in severe cases, it will even directly lead to the collapse of the entire system. With the development of aviation technology, the thrust-to-weight ratio of the engine continues to increase. The thrust-to-weight ratio of the fourth-generation aircraft has reached more than 10, which puts more and more stringent requirements on the main shaft bearings of aviation engines. In order to meet the technical indicators of the rotor system, the short-term operating temperature of the bearing must be up to 300°C, and the dn value (bearing inner diameter * speed) must reach 3×10 6 mm·r / min, instantaneous contact stress reaches 2500MPa, and life requirement reaches more than 10000h.
