Abstract-This paper deals with the problem of bearing failure detection and diagnosis in induction motors. Indeed, bearing deterioration is now the main cause of induction motor rotor failures. In this context, two fault detection and diagnosis techniques, namely the Park transform approach and the Concordia transform, are briefly presented and compared. Experimental tests, on a 0.75 kW two-pole induction motor with artificial bearing damage, outline the main features of the aforementioned approaches for small-and medium-size induction motors bearing failure detection and/or diagnosis.
This paper investigates the application of induction motor stator current signature analysis (MCSA) using Park's transform for the detection of rolling element bearing damages in three-phase induction motor. The paper first discusses bearing faults and Park's transform, and then gives a brief overview of the radial basis function (RBF) neural networks algorithm. Finally, system information and the experimental results are presented. Data acquisition and Park's transform algorithm are achieved by using LabVIEW and the neural network algorithm is achieved by using MATLAB programming language. Experimental results show that it is possible to detect bearing damage in induction motors using an ANN algorithm.
This paper deals with the problem of bearing Bearing problems are also caused by improperly forcing failure detection and diagnosis in induction motors. Indeed, the bearing onto the shaft or into the housing. This produces bearings deterioration is now the main cause of induction motor physical damage in the form of brinelling or false brinelling rotor failures. In this context, two fault detection and diagnosis of the raceways, which leads to premature failure.
We investigate the application of induction motor stator current spectral analysis (MCSA) for detection of rolling element bearing damage from the outer raceway. In this work, MCSA and vibration analysis are applied to induction motor to detect outer raceway defects in faulty bearings. Data acquisition, recording, and fast fourier transform (FFT) algorithms are done by using the LabVIEW programming language. Experimental results verify the relationship between vibration analysis and MCSA, and identify the presence of outer raceway bearing defects in induction machines. This work also indicates that detecting fault frequencies by motor currents is more difficult than detecting them by vibration analysis. The use of intensive resolution FFT is recommended in MCSA for detecting faults easily. Reinstalling a faulty bearing can alter the characteristic frequencies and it is difficult to compare results from different bearings or even from the same bearing in different installations.
