Application of Joint Time Frequency Analysis for Early Crack Detection on One-stage Gear Drive

چکیده
Original scientific paper The relationships between the existence of gear teeth cracks as a cause and symptoms emerging as housing vibrations that can be detected with signals measured was investigated numerically and experimentally. Experimental measurements on one-stage gear drives have been carried out involving gears built in with different notch length in tooth root. Signals measured as accelerations on gear box house have been analysed with STFT. A new computer programme DSP_Studio has been developed for detecting and measuring the diagnostic signals, and simultaneously for analysing the effect of crack in tooth root. Numerical simulation model of simple gear pair, which incorporates simulation of crack presence in altered tooth stiffness, has been conducted to confirm experimentally obtained results. The experimental results corroborate with the numerical results. The results derived represent an important contribution to early crack detection on one-stage gear drives.

Tooth root crack is considered as one of the crucial causes of failure in the gearing system and it occurs at the tooth root due to an excessive bending stress developed in the root region. The modern power transmission gear drives demand high bending load capacity, increased contact load capacity, low weight, reduced noise and longer life. These subsequent conditions are satisfied by the aid o...

Periodical impulse component is one of typical fault characteristics in vibration signals from rotating machinery. However, this component is very small in the early stage of the fault and masked by various noises such as gear meshing components modulated by shaft frequency, which make it difficult to extract accurately for fault detection. The adaptive line enhancer (ALE) is an effective techn...
