In this paper, the novel approach for the fault diagnosis of the bearing equipped with rotational mechanical facilities was studied. As research works, by applying the ball bearing used extensively in many industrial fields, experiments were conducted in order to propose the new prognostic method about the condition monitoring for the rotational bodies based on the condition analysis of infrared thermography. Also, by using the vibration spectrum analysis, the real time monitoring was performed. As results, it was confirmed that infrared thermography method could be adapted into monitor and diagnose the fault for bearing by evaluating quantitatively and qualitatively the temperature characteristics according to the condition of the ball bearing.

Acoustic emission (AE) was originally developed for non-destructive testing of static structure, but over the year its application has been extended to health monitoring of rotating machines and bearings. It offers the advantage of earlier defect detection in comparison with monitoring bearing. This study was diagnosed low-speed machine which had a fault bearing for early detection by AE. And the artificial faults in a experimentation bearing was made for the bearing signals from difference speed and load were compared and analyzed by AE.

Condition monitoring technology is of great importance for the maintenance of complex machinery in view of its early monitoring of the abnormal condition and the protection against failure. Several methods have been used for the detection of failure of journal bearings, one of the main elements of mechanical system. The methods most frequently used are vibration and temperature monitoring, but these are unable to monitor the wear conditions exactly. In this study, an ultrasonic measument method, one of the non-destructive testing methods, was introduced as the monitoring technology. Furtermore a pattem recognition method was applied to analyze the ultrasonic signal. The monitoring system using the pattern recognition method is composed of digital signal processing units and uses Hamming net algorithm for the recognition of ultrasonic waves. From the journal bearing wear test, the occurrence of adhesive wear of the white metal in rubbing contact with the shaft was exactly detected by this system, and the wear status of the journal bearing was monitored by measuring the wear thickness.

The low speed machinery faults are usually caused by the bearing failure of the rolling elements. As the life time of the bearing is limited, the condition monitoring of bearing is very important to maintain the continuous operation without failures. A few monitoring techniques using time domain, frequency domain and fuzzy neural network vibration analysis are introduced to detect and diagnose the faults of the low speed machinery. This paper presents a method of fault detection for the rolling element bearing in the low speed machinery using the Wiener filtering and shock pulse counting techniques. Wiener filter is used for noise cancellation and it clearly makes the shock pulse emerge from the time signal with the high level of noise. The shock pulse counting is used to determine the various faults obviously from the shock signal with transient pulses not related with the bearing fault. Machine fault simulator is used for the experimental measurement in order to verify this technique is the powerful tool for the low speed machine compared with the frequency analysis. The test results show that the method proposed is very effective parameter even for the signal with high contaminated noise, speed variation and very low energy. The presented method shows the optimal tool for the condition monitoring purpose to detect the various bearing fault with high accuracy.

Many kinds of condition monitoring technique as the preventive maintenance technique have been studied, so this study has investigated the possibility of chbcking the trend in the fault diagnosis of ball bearing, one of the important elements of rotating machine, by applying the cepstral analysis method. And computer simulation is conducted in order to identify obviously the physical meaning of cepstral analysis. It is identified that cepstral analysis is effective method to distinguish between the basic and reflected wave by computer simulation, and we know that it is possible to apply the cepstral analysis to the arbitrary elements of rotating machine which are different in fundamental frequency. It is verified that cepstral analysis method is more effective than the other conventional method in bearing fault diganosis.

The vibration data of bearings are very useful for monitoring and determining the condition of the bearings. The defect frequencies of ball bearings have been used for monitoring there condition. However, it is not easy to verify the defect frequencies as the wear progress. Therefore there is a need for an easy method to monitor the damages of bearings in real-time and to observe the variations in vibration characteristics as the wear progress. In this study, a bearing test equipment is constructed to diagnose the damage of bearings. The friction coefficient and vibration data are measured by using a torque sensor and an acceleration sensor, and the correlation between the measured data is analyzed to diagnose the condition of the bearing. We reached the following conclusions from the results. When the ball surface, inner and outer rings of a ball bearing are damaged, the friction coefficient increases to over 0.02 with an adhesion on the surface. Moreover this damage occurs more quickly with an increase in the number of revolutions. In the vibration characteristics, the amplitude of vibration wave appears high with an increase in the friction coefficient. In the high frequency range between 1000 and 2000 Hz, a wide range of frequency components with high amplitude occurs continuously irrespective of the number of revolutions.

회전기기의 결함진단에 있어서 기존의 방법과 달리 적외선열화상기술은 회전기기의 결함진단에 대해 비접촉, 비파괴 및 상태감시 모니터링을 할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 적외선열화상 상태진단을 기반으로 하는 회전기기의 결함진단에 대한 새로운 접근법을 제안한다. 따라서 회전기에서 가장 많이 사용되어지는 볼베어링을 이용하여 실험을 수행하였고, 진동 스펙트럼 분석과 적외선열화상을 이용하여 실시간 모니터링을 수행하였다. 적외선열화상기법을 이용하여 볼베어링의 윤활 불균형에 따른 온도 특성을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 실험을 통한 결과를 분석 검토하여 향후 산업전반의 회전기기의 상태감시연구에 있어서 다양한 분야에 사용되어 질 것으로 예상된다.

This paper present study on the application of sound pressure and vibration signals to detect the presence of defects in a rolling element bearing using a statistical analysis method. The well established statistical parameters such as the crest factor and the distribution of moments including kurtosis and skew are utilized in this study. In addition, other statistical parameters derived from the beta distribution function are also used. A comparison study on the performance of the different types of parameter used is also performed. The statistical analysis is used because of its simplicity and quick computation. Under ideal conditions, the statistical method can be used to identify the different types of defect present in the bearing. In addition, the results also reveal that there is no significant advantages in using the beta function parameters when compared to using kurtosis and the crest factor for detecting and identifying defects in rolling element bearings from both sound and vibration signals.
