摘要：Trade-offs studies on two kinds of existing engine thrust reverser design were carried out, applying virtual maintenance method and the basic theory of ergonomics. Analysis on the maintainability of the two kinds of configurations, the O-duct thrust reverser owning the integrated propulsion system (IPS) and the traditional portal D-duct thrust reverser, were compared. According to the differences of O-duct and D-duct thrust reverser in the structure, working principle and mode of motion during the maintenance, structure modelling and kinematics simulation of two kinds of thrust reverser were finished in the same space constraints. Taking DELMIA software as the platform, the partial ergonomic research and evaluation including accessibility analysis, visibility analysis, specific disassembling and assembling time estimation and workspace analysis were put forward through the virtual maintenance simulation of two civil engine thrust reversers. Supplied technical reserves on design and selection, scheme analysis and technical evaluations for domestic engine thrust reverser in the future.
