Abstract:

For predicting exhaust gas temperature of aeroengine,a modeling method is performed. Original database is derived from real-time monitoring data of engine monitoring system of PW4000 engine. The mean impact value (MIV)is as taken evaluation criteria for feature selection,screening 8 features as input variables. Extreme learning machine (ELM)algorithm for single-hidden layer feedforward neural network is applied for modeling,After the neural network is tested by monitoring data of the same engine,and model's extended performance is tested by data of that same engine after water wash. Result shows that training time of ELMis much less than that of back propagation algorithm,which is efficient for repeated training for reducing error,and the whole modeling method has satisfactory scalability.

Key words: aeroengine, real-time monitoring data, mean impact value, feature selection, extreme learning machine, neural network
