A non-intrusive method for estimating motor efficiency using vibration signature analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
An accurate method of estimating the efficiency of in-service motors is needed in order to determine the performance of installed motors without disrupting the motor driven process.. In this paper, the motor efficiency is estimated using a non-intrusive implementation of the compensated slip method. The motor speed is accurately estimated using motor vibration signature analysis. A few other efficiency estimation techniques are implemented and their performance is compared to the proposed method. It was found that the non-intrusive compensated slip method produced relatively accurate results without having an adverse impact on the availability of the motor under test. This method provides an attractive alternative to highly intrusive techniques that offer similar accuracy.

متن کاملAnalysis of Changes on Mean Particle Size in a Fluidized Bed using Vibration Signature
Vibration signals were measured in a lab-scale fluidized bed to investigate the changes in particle sizes. Experiments were carried out in the bed with a different mass fraction of coarser particles at different superficial gas velocities, and probe heights. The S-statistic test evaluates the dimensionless squared distance between two attractors reconstructed from time series of vibration signa...
