A methodology for measuring and evaluating geometric errors of aero-engine blades based on genetic algorithm

摘要

Measuring and evaluating geometric errors of an aero-engine blade are a complex research topic. At present, there is not a uniform evaluation criterion and completed strategy in the blade manufacturing industry. This article proposes an effective strategy for measuring and evaluating geometric errors of an aero-engine blade: first, measuring six feature curves and calculating the coordinate transformation value with singular value decomposition to improve the accuracy of blade localization; then, an improved measurement method based on the model offset is introduced to eliminate probe radius compensation errors. Finally, the geometric errors of blade are evaluated using the collected measurement data based on genetic algorithm, and a practical evaluation criterion is provided. The proposed strategy for two aero-engine blades has been performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology and show that it can prevent false feedback for the underlying manufacturing process for aero-engine blades.
