18、s International Standard describes a flexure fatigue test procedure which allows evaluation of various tube fitting designs or material combinations. This evaluation is performed by fatigue testing the tube joints over a spectrum of bending stresses and then plotting the cycles to failure. Other tes
19、t methods may be used as long as they develop the same data as the rotary flexure test. ISO 2016 All rights reserved vBS ISO 7257:2016BS ISO 7257:2016Aircraft Hydraulic tubing joints and fittings Rotary flexure test 1 Scope This International Standard specifies a flexure test procedure to determine
20、and classify the fatigue strengths of reconnectable or permanent hydraulic tube joints. The procedure is intended for conducting flexure tests of fittings and joints with high-strength hydraulic tubes of various alloys such as corrosion resistant steel, Nimonic 1) , titanium and aluminium alloy hydr
21、aulic tube for use on commercial and military aircraft. A mean stress is applied by holding system pressure in the specimens and then flexing in a rotary bending test machine. 2 Requirements 2.1 Flexure test device The test device should be capable of testing in-line or bulkhead union test specimens
22、 and other configurations such as elbows and tees. The rotary flexure test device should be similar to that shown in Figure 1. Each rotary flexure test device should be capable of testing one specimen, but several specimens may be mounted on one plate. The device should be capable of constantly main
23、taining the required operating pressure during the test. The test fluid shall be water or system fluid (working fluid) unless otherwise specified by the responsible authorities. A typical pressurization and automatic shutdown system is shown in Figure 2. The shut-down should be automatic in the even
24、t of failure or pressure drop. The device should be capable of testing at controlled constant temperature, if specified by the procuring agency. The tailstock of the test device should be designed to permit alignment during initial installation and specimen mounting, and to serve as a pressure manif
25、old. The rotating headstock should have a low- friction, self-aligning bearing and should be designed to permit total deflections of up to 25 mm/1 inch, and a constant rotational frequency within the range of 1 500 min 1to 3 600 min 1 . The base should be of rigid construction. 2.2 Flexure test spec
26、imen The test specimen should be consisting of an adapter fitting (headstock end), a section of straight tubing, and a test fitting at the tailstock end. Typical test specimens are shown in Figure 3. The tubing shall be of a size and wall thickness as specified by the user or procuring agency. 1) Ni

For example, a mechanically attached fitting may show some movement in the fitting, whereas a weld joint will be rigid.

36、equirements 2.3.1 Specimen length The length, L, of the specimens for rotary flexure testing shall be as shown in the Tables 1 and 2 and measured as shown in Figures 1 or 3, depending on the fitting design. For intermediate sizes, the length, L, may be interpolated from the tables. 2.3.2 Stress dete
37、rmination The desired strain or bending stress level for each set of specimens is induced by deflection of the specimen in the headstock. The bending stress levels for the various deflection settings should be determined prior to applying pressure, using strain gauges and procedures as outlined in C
38、lause 4. Strain gauges should always be used unless continual use of the same specimens and equipment makes settings by dial indicator acceptable. Such settings by dial indicator, however, shall be established in prior testing by the use of strain gauges. Strain gauges should be used whenever new te
39、st equipment is used. A typical stress cycle is illustrated in Figure 6. 2.3.3 Deflection The specimen deflections required to induce the stress levels indicated in 3.2 are measured by dial indicator at the length, L, as shown in Figures 1 or 3. Established deflection settings may be used in lieu of
40、 stress determination by strain gauge whenever qualification tests are being conducted, or when deflection plotting is of particular interest for example, to compare steel and titanium tubing. 2.4 Method of classification of fittings according to S/N flexure performance Fitting/tubing combinations s
41、hould be classified by the characteristic curves as shown in Figure 4, above which all S/N failure data points lie. Characteristic curves should be established as outlined in 3.2, showing cycles to failure for various bending stress levels. 2.5 Method of determining deflection/fatigue strength Cycle
42、s to failure should be plotted as shown in Figure 5, showing cycles to failure for various deflection settings (deflection settings may correspond with bending stress levels used as outlined in 2.4). NOTE Plotting of deflection in lieu of stress over cycles may be of interest to evaluate rigidity of
43、 fittings or compare the flexibility of different tubing materials such as corrosion-resistant steel and titanium.

The strain gauge type and location should be as follows: Types: For tube size through DN 16/10: approximately 4 mm (0,16 inch). For tube sizes DN 20/12 and above: approximately 8 mm (0,32 inch). Location: The gauges should be
48、mounted as shown in Figure 1, 90 apart. NOTE Mounting of four gauges, in pairs, on the X and Y axis is optional. 3.1.2 Rotary flexure test set-up centring The exact outside diameter and wall thickness of the test specimen should be measured and recorded before the test.
