Grants and Contributions:

Title:
Addition of fault detection and prediction algorithms for pumps and transmissions, incorporating new acoustic sensing capabilities to the existing vibration and temperature sensor system.
Agreement Number:
921239
Agreement Value:
$210,000.00
Agreement Date:
Feb 1, 2019 - Mar 31, 2020
Description:
A prototype new sensor incorporating an acoustic emission pickup on the existing system has been developed. Algorithms must be developed to analyze the signature to identify mechanical faults and determine the remaining time to reach the reliability limit of the equipment being monitored. Field trials need to be set up to test the new sensor and evaluate the accuracy of the data and analysis. Results from the field trials need to be used to optimize the algorithms and any areas to improve the functionality of the sensors and installation methods must be identified. The addition of acoustic capabilities to the sensor will allow us to perform condition monitoring on equipment with fluid film bearings and equipment with reciprocating motion.
