In this study, an improved model for a ball bearing is established to investigate the vibration response characteristics owing to outer race waviness under an axial load and high speed. The mathematical ball bearing model involves the motions of the inner ring, outer ring, and rolling elements in the radial XY plane and axial z direction. The 2Nb + 5 nonlinear differential governing equations of the ball bearing are derived from Lagrange's equation. The influence of rotational speed and outer race waviness is considered. The outer race waviness is modeled as a superposition of sinusoidal function and affects both the contact deformation between the outer raceway and rolling elements and initial clearance. The MATLAB stiff solver ODE is utilized to solve the differential equations. The simulated results show that the axial vibration frequency occurred at l fc and the radial vibration frequencies appeared at l fc fc when the outer race waviness of the order (l) was the multiple of the number of rolling elements (k Nb) and that the principal vibration frequencies were observed at l fc fc in the radial x direction when the outer race waviness of the order (l) was one higher or one lower than the multiple of the number of rolling elements (k Nb 1). At last, the validity of the proposed ball bearing model was verified by the high-speed vibration measurement tests of ball bearings.

We made an experimental investigation of the motions of the retainer in an instrument ball bearing during stable operation and during squeal. Radial motions of the retainer were measured with two fiber-light probes mounted 90 physical degrees apart. A signal analyzer was used to determine the phasing and frequency content of the probe signals. During squeal, a high-frequency retainer motion was found to be superimposed on the normal retainer ball group rotation rate. This high-frequency motion, which we call whirl, is a rigid-body translation in a circle. Whirl direction is opposite to the race for outer-race rotation, but in the same direction for inner-race rotation. Whirl frequency is approximately proportional to ball spin rate. The observations agree with predictions made from a squeal model based on retainer-to-ball frictional coupling that was originally presented in 1965.

Several lubricants that are considered candidates for ball bearing applications in the temperature range of 500 to 700 deg F were investigated in full-scale ball bearings and in a rolling-contact fatigue rig. Bearing endurance tests indicate that a synthetic paraffinic oil with an antiwear additive can perform beyond catalog rating at temperatures up to 600 deg F in a low oxygen environment. In a rolling-contact fatigue tester, this synthetic paraffinic oil exhibited at least twice the fatigue life at the 10 percent level of a fluorocarbon and a polyphenyl ether. Based on bearing race groove appearance, elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication was apparent at outer-race temperatures up to 700 deg F.

Measurement of the damage of elements in bearing can be by measuring the vibration generated in the form of a frequency signal when the pad is rotating. Measurement of vibration on the bearing by using vibration measuring instrument. Damage to the rolling bearing includes damage to the cage, outer ring, inner ring and balls. The rolling bearings used in this study are deep groove ball bearing type 6003 RS with internal diameter (d) = 17 mm, outer diameter (D) = 35 mm, bearing thickness (B) = 10, number of rolling elements (Nb) = 10 pieces, and the diameter of the rolling element (Bd) = 4.75 mm. In the rotation of the bearing (Fr) = 2003 rpm (33.38 Hz) we found the experimental results of bearings that have been damaged in the outer race at 138 Hz frequency, inner race damage at 196 Hz frequency, (ball) at a frequency of 88.8 Hz and cage damage at a frequency of 13.8 Hz.

<p><em>Bearings are the critical part of any rotating machine. The catastrophic failure of the bearing can lead to fatal and harmful to the operation of the machine. Therefore, predictive maintenance based on condition monitoring of bearing is very important. The objective of this research is to apply Support Vector Machine (SVM) method for fault diagnosis of the ball bearing. The research was carried out at the bearing test rig. Four types of ball bearing condition, such as normal, inner race defect, ball defect, and outer race defect were measured of the vibration signals using data acquisition with a sampling frequency of 20 kHz at the constant speed of 1400 RPM. Various features were extracted from vibration signals in time domain, such as RMS, variance, standard deviation, crest factor, shape factor, skewness, kurtosis, log energy entropy and sure entropy. PCA transformation was employed to reduce the dimension of feature extracted data. SVM classification problems were solved using MATLAB 2016a. The results showed that the application of RBF kernel function with the C parameter =1 was the best configuration. The training model accuracy was 98.93% and the testing accuracy of SVM was 97.5%. Finally, the research results show that the SVM classification method can be used to diagnose the fault condition of the ball bearing.</em><em>.</em></p>
