Résumé
A thermodynamic cycle model was matched to the CF34-8C5B1 engine using the data of a high-fidelity Level-D flight simulator as a surrogate. Before the model match, the data from the simulator was assessed to determine thermal stability, data reproducibility, and engine-to-engine variation. A series of tests were performed across the flight envelope of the MHI CRJ-700 regional aircraft to match and validate the intended cycle model. A baseline off-design cycle model was established based on an engine design point from previous research. This baseline model allowed the detection of any suspicious data obtained from the flight simulator and made it possible to determine appropriate actions concerning the model match. The baseline thermodynamic model was then adjusted and calibrated to match the data from the simulator at various flight conditions. The cycle model adjustments involved: (1) recalibration of the speed lines of the fan map, and (2) tuning the lowpressure turbine map’s adiabatic efficiency. These variables were selected based on the physics of the problem. Moreover, a simplified matching method was proposed, which allows to optimize the processing time and circumvent convergence problems. The proposed adjustments render a final model that predicts the thrust and engine fuel flow rate of the CF34- 8C5B1 engine within ±5.0% relative to the flight simulator engine model for the power settings of interest.
