Harmonic Response Analysis of Rotor-Rolling Bearing-Base System for Fault Diagnosis of Rotating Machinery Based on Base
In the fault diagnosis of rotating machinery through vibration analysis of the base, the signal may be weak and impure since the vibration signal which collected at the base is far away from the fault source. In order to provide useful evidences for the condition monitoring and fault diagnosis of rolling bearing based on the base vibration signal analysis, the rotor-bearing-base system model is built by taking the Spectra Quest comprehensive fault simulation test-bed as the object, the harmonic response analysis of the entire system is done with finite element analysis software ANSYS, and the ideal locations where sensors are installed on the base are obtained. These will form the foundation for the condition monitoring and fault diagnosis of rolling bearing based on the base vibration signal.
