Early Fault Detection

Online condition monitoring and predictive maintenance are crucial for the safe operation of equipments. This paper highlights an unsupervised statistical algorithm based on principal component analysis (PCA) for the predictive maintenance of industrial induced draft (ID) fan. The high vibration issues in ID fans cause the failure of the impellers and, sometimes, the complete breakdown of the fan-motor system. The condition monitoring system of the equipment should be reliable and avoid such a sudden breakdown or faults in the equipment. The proposed technique predicts the fault of the ID fan-motor system, being applicable for other rotating industrial equipment, and also for which the failure data, or historical data, is not available. The major problem in the industry is the monitoring of each and every machinery individually. To avoid this problem, three identical ID fans are monitored together using the proposed technique. This helps in the prediction of the faulty part and also the time left for the complete breakdown of the fan-motor system. This helps in forecasting the maintenance schedule for the equipment before breakdown. From the results, it is observed that the PCA-based technique is a good fit for early fault detection and getting alarmed under fault condition as compared with the conventional methods, including signal trend and fast Fourier transform (FFT) analysis.

Machine Health

The water purification process is becoming increasingly important to ensure the continuity and quality of subsequent production processes, and it is particularly relevant in pharmaceutical contexts. However, in this context, the difficulties arising during the monitoring process are manifold. On the one hand, the monitoring process reveals various discontinuities due to different characteristics of the input water. On the other hand, the monitoring process is discontinuous and random itself, thus not guaranteeing continuity of the parameters and hindering a straightforward analysis. Consequently, further research on water purification processes is paramount to identify the most suitable techniques able to guarantee good performance. Against this background, this paper proposes an application of kernel principal component analysis for fault detection in a process with the above-mentioned characteristics. Based on the temporal variability of the process, the paper suggests the use of past and future matrices as input for fault detection as an alternative to the original dataset. In this manner, the temporal correlation between process parameters and machine health is accounted for. The proposed approach confirms the possibility of obtaining very good monitoring results in the analyzed context.

Multiple Neighborhoods

Batch process generally has varying dynamic characteristic that causes low fault detection rate and high false alarm rate, and it is necessary and urgent to monitor batch process. This paper proposes a global enhanced multiple neighborhoods preserving embedding based fault detection strategy for dynamic batch process. Firstly, the angle neighbor is defined and selected to compensate for the insufficient expression for the spatial similarity of samples only by using the distance neighbor, and the time neighbor is introduced to describe the time correlations between samples. These three types of neighbors can fully characterize the similarity of the samples in time and space. Secondly, considering the minimum reconstruction error and the order information of three types of neighbors, an enhanced objective function is constructed to prevent the loss of order information when neighborhood preserving embedding (NPE) calculates the reconstruction weights. Furthermore, the enhanced objective function and a global objective function are organically combined to extract both global and local features, to describe process dynamics and visualize process data in a low-dimensional space. Finally, a monitoring index based on support vector data description is constructed to eliminate adverse effects of non-Gaussian data for monitoring performance. The advantages of the proposed method over principal component analysis, neighborhood preserving embedding, dynamic principal component analysis and time NPE are demonstrated by a numerical example and the penicillin fermentation process simulation.
