The invention relates to a working condition
simulation and pre-estimating method for service lifetime of a rubber sealing element. The method includes: a step of test condition selection and
sample preparation, a step of performance parameter testing and curve mapping, and a step of high-temperature accelerating
simulation testing and service lifetime pre-estimating, wherein during test condition selection and
sample preparation, testing conditions comprising testing parameters, sample specification, temperature values, the number of the times of testing and a sampling time interval are determined; during performance parameter testing and curve mapping, a permanent deformation main curve is mapped through a series of temperature permanent deformation tests and an
acceleration coefficient is obtained; and during high-temperature accelerating
simulation testing and service lifetime pre-estimating, a sample is put into a sealing structure, the acceleration temperature and the
acceleration coefficient are selected, a high-temperature accelerated failure time is determined by a high-temperature acceleration test, and the pre-estimated service lifetime is calculated according to the
acceleration coefficient. The method determines the acceleration coefficient by using the permanent deformation main curve and determines the failure time by the acceleration test under real working condition. The method has advantages of convenient operation, testing safety, accurate data and reliable analysis.
