薄壁结构双侧异步激光喷丸强化试验研究

航空发动机压气机叶片是典型薄壁结构,通过激光喷丸强化在叶缘引入残余压应力,是提高其抗异物撞击能力,延长疲劳寿命的有效途径。为解决双侧同步强化方法存在的材料层裂损伤风险的问题,提出薄壁结构双侧异步激光喷丸强化方法。试验研究发现:单侧薄壁激光喷丸试验中,光斑功率密度的改变会使薄壁结构相对于激光入射方向呈现"∧"或"∨"两种扭曲变形趋势;另一面采用同样参数进行激光喷丸后,扭曲变形会恢复;合理采用激光喷丸参数,双侧异步激光喷丸强化与同步强化相似,可以在两侧表面均得到残余压应力场,并且扭曲变形能满足形状精度要求。     

S型收缩流道对涡轮通流能力影响的研究

为进一步提高航空发动机涡轮通流能力，以小型跨声速涡轮为原型，研究了静子S型收缩流道对涡轮通流能力的影响。将S型流道直线段长度和收缩段内外圆半径比作为流道造型参数，分别针对原型涡轮静子内外端壁进行调整造型，得到一系列不同参数组合的S型内外端壁涡轮算例。保持膨胀比为设计值不变，利用CFD软件对原型和S型流道涡轮进行设计点模拟分析。结果表明，S型流道涡轮流量提升的原理在于增大的静子喉道面积。在相同造型参数下，S型外端壁涡轮的静子叶根损失被有效降低，流量提升明显，且流量高于S型内端壁涡轮1%左右，但由于最大外径增大使其质量通量提升效果减弱；与之相反，S型内端壁涡轮的质量通量提升明显，且高于S型外端壁涡轮3%左右。从提升涡轮质量通量并保证效率不低于原型的角度看，S型外端壁造型参数选取范围更广。     

Influence of lunar regolith compressibility on sampling performance of thick wall spiral drills

A 2 m class robotic drill was sent to the Moon and successfully collected and returned regolith samples in late 2020 by China. It was a typical thick wall spiral drill (TWSD) with a hollow auger containing a complex coring system to retain subsurface regolith samples. Before the robotic drill was launched, a series of laboratory tests were carried out to investigate and predict the possible drilling loads it may encounter in the lunar environment. This work presents how the sampling performance of the TWSD is affected by the regolith compressibility. Experiments and analysis during the drilling and sampling process in a simulated lunar regolith environment were conducted. The compressibility of a typical lunar regolith simulant (LRS) was measured through uni-directional compression tests to study the relationship between its inner regolith stress and bulk density. A theoretical model was established to elucidate the cutting discharge behavior by auger flights based on the aforementioned relationship. Experiments were conducted with the LRS, and the results show that the sampling performance is greatly affected by the flux of the drilled cuttings into the spiral flight channels. This work helped in scheduling reasonable drilling parameters to promote the sampling performance of the robotic drill in the Chinese Chang'E 5 mission.     

Modelling and analysis of metal flowing behaviors in constraining ring rolling of tapered ring with thin wall and three high ribs

Tapered ring with thin wall and three high ribs(TRTWTHR), showing complicated geometry(wall thickness is less than 4 mm and rib height exceeds 20 mm), is extensively utilized to fabricate the critical structural parts of aerospace equipment such as spacecraft cabin, rocket body and fuel tank because of light weight and high carrying capacity. How to fabricate TRTWTHR with high performance is a critical problem that aerospace area needs to solve. In this work, constraining ring rolling(CRR) techn...
