Vibration Measurement Techniques in Power Plant
Vibration measurement is complex because of its many components: displacement, velocity, acceleration, and frequencies. Vibration measurement is an effective, non-intrusive method to monitor machine condition during start-ups, shutdowns and normal operation. Regular vibration monitoring can detect in a power plant shaft lines, deteriorations and defects of a number of various structural mechanical conditions, for example cracks, bearing faults, coupling damage, imbalance as well as interruptions in the electric grid.
Gas Turbine Vibration Monitoring
Vibration measurements are commonly considered to be a sound indicator of a machine’s overall health state (global monitoring).The general principle behind using vibration data is that when faults start to develop, the system dynamics change, which results in different vibration patterns from those observed at the healthy state of the system monitored.
Vibration Analysis on a conveyor unit
Belt conveyors are an integrated transmission and carrying mechanism with length sometimes extending several thousand meters. In traditional design and analysis of belt conveyors, vibration and impact are usually ignored and only static design is considered. However, to ensure the safety of conveyor operation for this restricted analysis, designers must increase the safety factor, which increases production costs. Many research groups have conducted dynamic analysis of large belt conveyors to reduce production cost and optimize conveyor performance. The conveyor belt was first modeled as an elastic body and then a viscoelastic body to incorporate viscoelastic characteristics of belt cover layer.
Electronic Components Reliability Testing
If your company makes planes, trains, automobiles, medical devices, computers, and communication systems, or you are a large electronic device supplier, the reliability of your products in the field is crucial to your business success. The growing market for electric and hybrid vehicles is increasing the pressure on life-time performance of the devices that power them.
Torsional Vibration Analysis
Torsional vibration measurements allow engineers to better understand the dynamics of their rotating equipment, enabling them to troubleshoot and/or validate performance. With a better understanding of the reasons and methods to measure torsional vibration, the right instrumentation, and a helpful partner, you will become better positioned to make the decisions you need to decrease downtime and increase productivity.
Vibration Analysis
Vibration analysis is the most prevalent method used to monitor the levels and patterns of vibration signals within a component, machinery or structure, in order to detect abnormal vibration events and then using that information to analyse and evaluate the overall condition of the component, machinery or structure. In short, vibration analysis helps you monitor and detect issues using vibration data
Noise and Vibration Monitoring Guidelines
Noise and vibration are both dynamic processes and have a close physical relationship. Vibrating systems make noise, and noise makes structural systems vibrate. Both noise and vibration are adversely affecting people and if sufficiently intense, both noise and vibration can permanently hurt people. At the same time, also structural systems, if excited by excessive noise and vibration over sufficient periods of time, can fatigue and fail.
