Dynamic model-based intelligent fault diagnosis method for fault detection in a rod fastening rotor

A complete fault sample database is of great significance for the intelligent fault diagnosis method of rod fastening rotor. However, the lack of fault samples makes the fault diagnosis results unbelievable. To solve this issue, the dynamic model-based intelligent fault diagnosis method is established for a rod fastening rotor, and the fault sample database is enriched by numerical simulations. First, the lumped parameter model of the rod fastening rotor system is constructed and further updated using Euclidean Distance between measurement and numerical simulation of the intact system. Second, mathematical models of various fault types are incorporate into the updated model to obtain numerical simulation fault samples. Thirdly, the utilization of numerical simulation fault samples is severed as training data to the artificial intelligence (AI) models and the unknown measurement test samples will be finally classified. In this paper, Support Vector Machine, Random Forest, Bayesian Network and Decision Tree are selected as the typical AI models. Subsequently, the feasibility of classification is validated by the test bench of the rod fastening rotor system, and the problem of insufficient fault samples can be solved.
