Abstract

Accurate engine performance models are important for model-based performance evaluation of aero engine. The accuracy of the model often depends on engine component maps, so there is a need for a method that can accurately correct the component maps of the model over a wide range. In this paper, a new method for modifying component maps is proposed, this method combines the correction of the scaling factors with the solution process of the off-design working point, and uses the adjustment of the variable geometric parameters of the engine to change the position of the working line, in order to obtain more correction results and guarantee high accuracy in a wider range. The method is validated by taking the main fan of the Adaptive Cycle Engine (ACE), an ideal power unit for a new generation of multi-purpose and ultra-wide working range aircraft, as an example. The results show that the maximum error between the corrected component maps and the target maps is less than 1%. New possibility for more precise component maps can be realized in this paper.
