Abstract: 650 thousands of EAS events recorded by Huairou EAS Array have been analysed carefully. The Size spectrum and primary energy spectrum in the region from 1015 to 1016eV are obtained. The energy spectrum shows a clear and smooth "Knee" structure around 3×1015eV. Except the smooth steep feature of "Knee", it is consistent very well with Akeno spectrum. Under the assumption of so-called rigidity dependent cut model, by adjusting the breaking energy Ec of primary proton spectrum in the Monte Carlo simulation and comparing with the experimental spectrum, we found that the proper value of Ec is in the energy range from 160 to 240TeV.
