Abstract: Based on the characteristics of the high-pressure turbine blade, a numerical simulation method for the actual load spectrum of the high-pressure turbine blade of the civil aircraft engine based on the QAR data is proposed. The actual service load spectrum of the engine recorded during aircraft flight is extracted from the QAR data; the time history of centrifugal force, aerodynamic force and thermal stress of the turbine blade in actual use is obtained by means of finite element simulation; and with life prediction model, the actual service life of the blade is estimated. This method provides a reliable engineering method for evaluating the remaining life and obtaining the actual service load of the high-pressure turbine blade, which is valuable for studying the reliability and load characteristics of the high-pressure turbine blade.

Key words: high-pressure turbine blade, QAR data, load spectrum, numerical simulation, remaining life
