A Proposed Bearing Load Identification Method to Uncertain Rotor Systems

Bearings are considered as important mechanical components in rotating machines. Bearing load is used as an indication of monitoring rotor system health, but there are interval and probability uncertain parameters in the process of obtaining bearing load from the rotor system.

description Bearings are considered as important mechanical components in rotating machines. Bearing load is used as an indication of monitoring rotor system health, but there are interval and probability uncertain parameters in the process of obtaining bearing load from the rotor system. A bearing load strip enclosed by two bounding distributions is then formed, rather than a single distribution that we usually obtain through the load identification method for a deterministic rotor system. In this paper, a computational inverse approach that combines the interval and perturbation analysis method with regularization is presented to stably identify bearing load strip. Using an interval analysis method, a calculated transient response of the rotor structure only subjecting to the bearing load can be approximated as a linear function of the interval parameters in the rotor system. The perturbation analysis method based on Taylor expansion is used to transform the problem of the bearing load identification involving in probability parameters into two kinds of certain inverse problem, namely, the bearing load identification combining the mean value of uncertain parameters with calculated transient response function and the sensitivity identification of bearing load to each probability parameter. Regularization is used to overcome ill-posedness of bearing load identification arising from the noise-contaminated observed response. A rotor system with two bearings is investigated to demonstrate the effectiveness and accuracy of the presented method.
