METHOD OF ASSESSING THE TECHNICAL CONDITION OF A ROTATING SHAFT

摘要

A method of assessing the technical condition of a rotating shaft by combining measurements from sensors to create the shaft trajectories in three dimensions and comparing them with patterns of theoretical shapes obtained from a theoretical model is disclosed. The method includes measuring synchronized analog vibration signals obtained from sensor devices located close to first and second bearing respectively, and converting analog vibration signals into discrete vibration signals which are converted into discrete displacement signals which are delivered to a computer. The computer also receives three-dimensional theoretical models of the rotating shaft containing patterns of theoretical shapes of the rotating shaft. The computer also prepares three-dimensional real model images of the rotating shaft. The computer then compares the three-dimensional real model image with patterns of theoretical shapes and then selects one of the patterns of theoretical shapes which reflects the condition of the rotating shaft.

1. A method of assessing the technical condition of a rotating shaft using a computer device for processing measured data and data delivered by user comprising:
measuring synchronized analog vibration signals (VA, VB, VC, VD) obtained from sensor devices located close to first and second bearing respectively, converting analog vibration signals (VA, VB, VC, VD) first into discrete vibration signals (UA, UB, UC, UD) that consist of vectors including samples (uA1, uA2, . . . uAn), (uB1, uB2, . . . uBn), (uC1, uC2, . . . uCn), (uD1, uD2, . . . uDn) respectively, where samples (uA1, UB1, uC1, uD1), (uA2, uB2, uC2, uD2), . . . (uAn, uBn, uCn, uDn) are recorded at the same moment of time, and second converting discrete vibration signals (UA, UB, UC, UD) by known method into discrete displacement signals (DA, DB, DC, DD) in order to receive discrete filtered displacement signals (FA, FB, FC, FD) of synchronized samples, preparing three-dimensional real model image (S) of the rotating shaft, in a form of a wireframe image, that reflects real movement of the rotating shaft near to bearings by transforming discrete filtered displacement signals (FA, FB, FC, FD) into clusters of points (p1xy, p2xy, . . . pnxy) and (p1x′y′, p2x′y′, . . . pnxy) forming dynamic path of the rotating shaft on two parallel planes first (x-y)and second (x′-y′) of an orthogonal axis of Cartesian system, in which an orthogonal z-axis corresponds to the longitudinal axis of the rotating shaft, and next by connecting with lines (L1, L2, . . . Ln) the synchronized points from cluster of points (p1xy, p2xy, . . . pnxy) located on the plane (x-y)and points from cluster of points (p2x′y′, p2x′y′, . . . pnx′y′) located on the plane (x′-y′), delivering by user into the computer device three-dimensional theoretical models of the rotating shaft containing patterns of theoretical shapes (SP1, SP2, . . . SPk) in a form of different wireframe images describing different condition of the rotating shaft, assessing the technical condition of the rotating shaft by comparing three-dimensional real model image (S) in a form of a wireframe with different patterns of theoretical shapes (SP1, SP2, . . . SPk) in a form of wireframe images and on the base on the comparison, selecting one of the patterns of theoretical shapes (SP1, SP2, . . . SPk) which is the closest to the three-dimensional real model image (S) and reflects the condition of the rotating shaft.
