Cyclic Spectrum

Vibration signal of rolling-element bearing is random cyclostationarity when a fault develops, the proper analysis of which can be used for condition monitor. Cyclic spectrum is a common cyclostationary analysis method and has a great many algorithms which have distinct efficiency in different application circumstance, two common algorithms (SSCA and FAM) are compared in the paper. The FAM is recommended to be used in diagnosing rolling-element bearing fault via calculation of simulation signal in different signal to noise ratio. The cyclic spectrum of practice signal of rolling-element bearing with inner-race point defect is analyzed and a new characteristic extraction method is put forward. The preferable result is acquired verify the correctness of the analysis and indicate that the cyclic spectrum is a robust method in diagnosing rolling-element bearing fault.

Rolling-element bearing vibrations are random cyclostationary, that is they exhibit a cyclical behaviour of their statistical properties while the machine is operating. This property is so symptomatic when an incipient fault develops that it can be efficiently exploited for diagnostics. This paper gives a synthetic but comprehensive discussion about this issue. First, the cyclostationarity of bearing signals is proved from a simple phenomenological model. Once this property is established, the question is then addressed of which spectral quantity can adequately characterise such vibration signals. In this respect, the cyclic coherence - and its multi-dimensional extension in the case of multi-sensors measurements -- is shown to be twice optimal: first to evidence the presence of a fault in high levels of background noise, and second to return a relative measure of its severity. These advantages make it an appealing candidate to be used in adverse industrial environments. The use and interpretation of the proposed tool are then illustrated on actual industrial measurements, and a special attention is paid to describe the typical "cyclic spectral signatures" of inner race, outer race, and rolling-element faults.

The impulsive signals produced by bearing faults are usually modulated in amplitude. Multiscale morphology is suited to demodulate the signal because of its powerful demodulation ability. However, when the structuring element scales are increased gradually, the multiscale morphology method using closing and/or opening allows the low-amplitude impulses to be eliminated. Therefore, iterative asymmetric multiscale morphology is explored in this paper to handle the problem. Firstly, a modified difference filter is developed based on closing and opening to conduct iterative morphology operation, and then a type of asymmetric-multiscale is designed to set the structuring element scales of the modified difference filter filter for demodulating the fault signal with amplitude modulation well. Meanwhile, iterative morphology is conducted to enhance the impulsive features, and kurtosis acts as the iteration stop condition. The effectiveness of the proposed method is evaluated by both simulation experiment and the vibration signals of rolling element bearings with an inner race, an outer, and a rolling element faults. In comparisons with the conventional multiscale morphology, the results demonstrate that the iterative asymmetric multiscale morphology method has better diagnosis for the bearing faults.

Element Bearing

The marvelous uniqueness of vibration responses of faulty roller bearings can be simply observed through its vibration signature. Therefore, vibration analysis has been claimed as an effective tool not only for primitive detection but also for subsequent analysis. The dynamic behavior of roller bearings has been investigated by systematic modeling of system and its validation under diverse operating conditions. This article presents an overview of imperative marks in the development of dynamic modeling of rolling-element bearing, which especially predicted vibration responses of damaged bearings. This study aims to address dimensional analysis; a new and imperative way to model the dynamic behavior of rolling-element bearings and their real-time performance in a rotor-bearing system. The findings are described with influential advantages over earlier research to pinpoint the intention behind its development. A literature summary is trailed by remarkable findings and future directions for research.

Inner Race

The series-hybrid bearing couples a fluid-film bearing with a rolling-element bearing such that the rolling-element bearing inner race runs at a fraction of shaft speed. A series-hybrid bearing was analyzed and experiments were run at thrust loads from 100 to 300 lb and speeds from 4000 to 30,000 rpm. Agreement between theoretical and experimental speed sharing was good. The lowest speed ratio (ratio of ball bearing inner-race speed to shaft speed) obtained was 0.67. This corresponds to an approximate reduction in DN value of 1/3. For a ball bearing in a 3 million DN application, fatigue life would theoretically be improved by a factor as great as 8.

Although many attempts have been made to model rolling-element bearings with inner-piloted cages, they all simplify the hydrodynamic cage-support mechanism. This can mean that some cage behaviour is inadequately explained, such as cage lap. This paper presents the development of a new three-dimensional analysis of the hydrodynamic support for an inner-piloted cage for a rolling-element bearing incorporating starved-film conditions. The solution of the generalized Reynolds equation along with a continuity equation leads to analytical expressions for the hydrodynamic forces. The equations of motion for the cage are then integrated numerically using the Newmark beta method to predict the cage response. The availability of analytical hydrodynamic force expressions means that the numerical integration process is computationally efficient. The influence of key parameters such as the level of lubrication and the angular velocity of the inner race are investigated.
