Abstract:

To study the problem of bird strike on aero-engine fan blades, this paper proposes a multi-resolution SPH-FEM coupling method considering adaptive generation of finite elements. Firstly, by setting a group of background particles at the interpolation points inside the FEM elements, the new method overcame the problem of consistency requirement of model discrete scale at the coupling interface in the traditional SPH-FEM coupling method. Secondly, by adding an element adaptive generation algorithm and applying the non-reflecting boundary condition, the new method changed the calculation range from all elements to elements at critical areas, reducing computational costs. Using this new coupling method, this study conducted numerical simulations of bird strikes on areo-engine fan blades, analyzed the dynamic response during the impact process, and revealed the damage mechanisms of fan blades under the condition of bird strikes. It is of important significance for the design of bird strike resistance for aero-engine fan blades and the improvement of flight safety.
