Abstract

The infrared thermography technology rather than traditional nondestructive methods has benefits with non-contact and non-destructive testings in measuring for the fault diagnosis of the rotating machine. In this work, condition monitoring measurements using this advantage of thermography were proposed. From this study, the novel approach for the damage detection of a rotating machine was conducted based on the spectrum analysis. As results, by adopting the ball bearing used in the rotating machine applied extensively, an spectrum analysis with thermal imaging experiment was performed. Also, as analysing the temperature characteristics obtained from the infrared thermography for in-situ rotating ball bearing under the lubrication condition, it was concluded that infrared thermography for condition monitoring in the rotating machine at real time could be utilized in many industrial fields.

회전기기의 결함진단에 있어서 기존의 방법과 달리 적외선열화상기술은 회전기기의 결함진단에 대해 비접촉, 비파괴 및 상태감시 모니터링을 할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 적외선열화상 상태진단을 기반으로 하는 회전기기의 결함진단에 대한 새로운 접근법을 제안한다. 따라서 회전기에서 가장 많이 사용되어지는 볼베어링을 이용하여 실험을 수행하였고, 진동 스펙트럼 분석과 적외선열화상을 이용하여 실시간 모니터링을 수행하였다. 적외선열화상기법을 이용하여 볼베어링의 윤활 불균형에 따른 온도 특성을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 실험을 통한 결과를 분석 검토하여 향후 산업전반의 회전기기의 상태감시연구에 있어서 다양한 분야에 사용되어 질 것으로 예상된다.
