This invention belongs to the field of aero-engine
design technology, and provides an in-situ sampling
simulation component for fatigue life of multiple critical locations under the same stress on an aero-engine rotor disk, along with its design method. The
simulation component is
cut in situ from the rotor disk component, centered on the fatigue-
critical location.
Stress control structures are fabricated in non-critical locations, including two
radial stress gradient adjustment grooves and two thickness-direction
principal stress gradient adjustment grooves. These are used to adjust the first
principal stress gradient in the crack depth and length directions, respectively, to ensure consistency with the actual
service condition of the rotor disk and to guarantee that the
crack initiation location matches the failure mode. The fatigue-
critical location retains its original material state without secondary
processing. Loading structures are located on both sides of the loading section, supporting hole loading or clamping loading. This
simulation component can be used for high-fidelity low-cycle
fatigue testing, enabling accurate assessment of the fatigue life dispersion of multiple fatigue-critical locations with the same or similar peak stress levels on an aero-engine rotor disk.
