The invention discloses a
solid engine shell strength evaluation method, and belongs to the technical field of material strength
simulation. Comprising the following steps of establishing a two-dimensional finite
element model of an engine, calculating stress and strain of the engine through a
constitutive equation and a damage failure equation of a shell, testing a
temperature monitoring point on the shell, making a pressure intensity time-history curve and a temperature time-history curve, and checking the strength of the shell. A two-dimensional finite
element model of the engine is established through finite elements, a
combustion regression layer on the inner surface of a
propellant serves as a source item, temperature loads and pressure loads are applied, and the
combustion working process of the engine is simulated; a
constitutive equation and a damage failure equation of the shell are used for calculating plastic stress and strain of the shell, strength
simulation is conducted on the shell in the working process of the engine according to an actually-measured pressure intensity curve, the pressure intensity and
temperature response characteristics of the engine shell in the high-temperature environment, the normal-temperature environment and the low-temperature environment are obtained, and through finite
element analysis and thin-wall cylinder strength checking, the strength of the shell is obtained. And judging whether the shell meets the strength requirement during the working period of the engine.
