In the era of the “Industry 4.0” revolution, self-adjusting and unmanned machining systems have gained considerable interest in high-value manufacturing industries to cope with the growing demand for high productivity, standardized part quality, and reduced cost. Tool condition monitoring (TCM) systems pave the way for automated machining through monitoring the state of the cutting tool, including the occurrences of wear, cracks, chipping, and breakage, with the aim of improving the efficiency and economics of the machining process. This article reviews the state-of-the-art TCM system components, namely, means of sensing, data acquisition, signal conditioning and processing, and monitoring models, found in the recent open literature. Special attention is given to analyzing the advantages and limitations of current practices in developing wireless tool-embedded sensor nodes, which enable seamless implementation and Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT) readiness of TCM systems. Additionally, a comprehensive review of the selection of dimensionality reduction techniques is provided due to the lack of clear recommendations and shortcomings of various techniques developed in the literature. Recent attempts for TCM systems’ generalization and enhancement are discussed, along with recommendations for possible future research avenues to improve TCM systems accuracy, reliability, functionality, and integration.
We present a modified version of the ONERA dynamic stall model for improving the prediction of the unsteady forces and load overshoots generated by the shedding of dynamic stall vortices. The modifications include modeling the chord‐axis forces instead of the wind‐axis forces used originally. A novel approach for defining the onset of a dynamic stall is based on the behavior of the chordwise force without correlating the onset empirically. Overshoots in the unsteady aerodynamic loads caused by vortex shedding are modeled by sine‐shaped functions added to the normal force and moment. The onset and duration of these pulses are empirically described in the time domain for convenient use in time‐marching simulations. The modified dynamic stall model is calibrated using a genetic algorithm and compared to experimental data of different airfoils relevant to wind turbine applications. The results show an excellent correlation with the experimental data, particularly in deep dynamic stall, which are characterized by large fluctuations in the aerodynamic loads.
For the design and certification of wind turbines, it is essential to provide fast and accurate unsteady aerodynamic load prediction models for the whole operational range of angle of attack, up to 180o for vertical-axis and 90o for horizontal-axis wind turbines. This work describes a computationally efficient unsteady forces prediction model based on a deep learning approach, namely the bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) algorithm, for an airfoil pitched over the full operational range of angles of attack up to 180o. No model has been developed to capture the unsteady forces at high angles of attack. Novel features based on operating conditions and the steady polars of the airfoil are used as inputs for the BiLSTM model. Direct measurements of steady and unsteady forces on a NACA 0021 airfoil model were conducted at reduced frequencies up to 0.075 and a Reynolds number of 120,000 in an open-jet wind tunnel for model learning and testing. The unsteady forces vary significantly from the steady values at high pitching amplitudes and post-stall angles, which, if not accounted for when simulating wind turbine performance, would result in inaccurate predictions. Furthermore, measurements revealed the effect of unsteady vorticity development and shedding on aerodynamic forces in forward and reverse flow conditions. The BiLSTM model is capable of capturing the underlying physics of unsteady aerodynamic forces under extreme operating conditions.
