description The main data source for the verification of surge detection methods still rely on test rigs of the compressor or the whole engine, which makes the development of models of the whole engine surge process an urgent need to replace the high-cost and high-risk surge test. In this paper, a novel real-time surge model based on the surge mechanism is proposed. Firstly, the turboshaft engine component level model (CLM) and the classic surge dynamic model, Moore-Greitzer (MG) model is established. Then the stability of the MG model is analyzed and the compressor characteristics in the classical MG model are extended to establish the extended MG model. Finally, this paper considers the coupling relationship of the compressor’s rotor speed, mass flow and pressure between CLM and the extended MG model to establish the real-time model of the turboshaft engine with surge process. The simulation results show that this model can realize the whole surge process of the turboshaft engine under multiple operating states. The change characteristics of the rotor speed, compressor outlet pressure, mass flow, exhaust gas temperature and other parameters are consistent with the test data, which means that the model proposed can be further applied to the research of surge detection and anti-surge control.
