The Research on the Methods of the Aero Engine Blades Evaluation
As an important part of the aero engine, the quality of the blade seriously affects the engine performance, so the inspection method of the blade is significant. Based on the research of the HB 5647-98<<to mark dimensions, tolerances of the vane type and the surface roughness of the blade body>> , this paper concludes different evaluation methods of the blade. The main evaluated parameters include the leading and trailing edge radius, the chord length, the maximum thickness of blade profile, the mean camber line, and the surface twist and so on. Here we mainly discuss the previous three terms. The least square method is adopted to fit the arc of the leading and trailing edge; introduce the projection method to calculate the chord length; at last, we employ the spline fitting method to get the mean line and then obtain the maximum thickness of the blade section.
