Best Time Domain Features for Early Detection of Faults in Rotary Machines Using RAT and ANN
Abstract The common mechanical defect of rotating machinery is bearing failure which is considered the most common failure mode in rotating machinery. This kind of failure can lead to large losses as financial during work. Early detection of different faults in rotating machines such as bearing fault, misalignment, and others is considered one of the techniques in which is achieved by further signal processing techniques. Thus, using statistical methods such as reverse arrangement tests (RAT) to obtain the best a feature associated with these different faults is the perfect solution to find the failure which is widespread in the early detection of a fault. This type of feature will be used in Artificial Neural networks (ANN) as input for auto diagnosis. These characteristics are independently associated with different types of fault. Using RAT is considered very important in the process of linking different kinds of failures with the most important features.
