[0039] Embodiment 1
[0040] The embodiment of the present disclosure provides a single-sensor-based engine fault detection method, which is used to directly obtain eddy current original signals and optical fiber pulse signals by installing a single composite sensor at the position of the aeroengine casing, and further diagnose and give early warnings about various engine faults by using this information, so as to realize the efficient monitoring of aeroengines with single measurement points and multi-source perception.
[0041] Please refer to Figure 1 , the single-sensor-based engine fault detection method includes steps S101 to S104, and the following is a detailed description of each step.
[0042] Step S101: Obtain the eddy current raw signal and the optical fiber pulse signal of the fiber-optic eddy current composite sensor; the fiber-optic eddy current composite sensor is installed at the position of the aero-engine casing.
[0043] In this embodiment, the fiber-optic eddy current composite sensor is a fiber-optic - eddy current coupled blade vibration - tip clearance composite sensor. The fiber-optic - eddy current coupled blade vibration - tip clearance composite sensor is installed at the position of the aero-engine casing, and the eddy current raw signal and the optical fiber pulse signal of the fiber-optic eddy current composite sensor are synchronously and highly sampled through the upper computer monitoring system. The principle of synchronous monitoring of blade vibration and tip clearance under the condition of a single sensor is as Figure 2 shown.
[0044] It should be noted that the fiber-optic - eddy current coupled blade vibration - tip clearance composite sensor is installed at a single point on the casing. The center of the sensor probe needs to be aligned with the tip of the blade, and the sensor probe cannot interfere with the rotation path of the blade. Due to the high-frequency vibration and high linear velocity of the blade, both the eddy current raw signal and the optical fiber pulse signal require high-frequency sampling.
[0045] It should be additionally noted that by using the method of arranging a single fiber-optic - eddy current composite sensor at the position of the engine casing to complete the synchronous measurement of blade vibration and tip clearance, compared with the traditional multi-sensor system, the number of measurement points is reduced, the sensor arrangement is simplified, and the complexity and maintenance cost of the monitoring system are reduced.
[0046] Step S102: Calculate the blade radial displacement signal according to the eddy current raw signal, and calculate the blade circumferential displacement signal according to the optical fiber pulse signal.
[0047] In this embodiment, the eddy current raw signal reflects the radial displacement of the engine blade, and the optical fiber pulse signal reflects the circumferential displacement of the engine blade. Therefore, the eddy current raw signal can be converted into the blade radial displacement signal, and the optical fiber pulse signal can be converted into the blade circumferential displacement signal. The optical fiber pulse signal and the eddy current raw signal are preliminarily processed through a signal preprocessing method, improving the data quality and ensuring the reliability and analysis accuracy of the data.
[0048] Please refer to Figure 3 , in a specific embodiment, step S102 includes steps S1021 to S1025, and the following is a detailed description of each step.
[0049] Step S1021: Filter the eddy current raw signal to obtain the eddy current filtered signal.
[0050] In this embodiment, the eddy current original signal is filtered to remove the noise introduced by high-frequency sampling, and the eddy current filtered signal is obtained.
[0051] Step S1022: Obtain the current rotational speed of the aero-engine and determine the dynamic sensitivity corresponding to the current rotational speed.
[0052] In this embodiment, the dynamic sensitivity represents the response characteristic of the sensor output varying with the rotational speed. Usually, it is a non-linear function and needs to be calibrated through experiments. Query the dynamic sensitivity corresponding to the current rotational speed of the aero-engine.
[0053] Step S1023: Convert the eddy current filtered signal into the blade radial displacement signal according to the dynamic sensitivity.
[0054] In this embodiment, analyze the eddy current original signal, and calculate the rotor rotation period T and the arrival time difference t between adjacent blades according to the characteristic blade w . The specific calculation formula is: T = t OPR,p+1 -t OPR,p , t w = T / n b , where n b represents the number of blades, OPR represents the key-phase blade, and p represents the number of turns.
[0055] Further, calculate the time range when a single blade arrives according to the rotor rotation period T and the arrival time difference t between adjacent blades w , and extract the peak value within this time range. Each peak point is the extracted tip clearance voltage.
[0056] Further, convert the tip clearance voltage V into the tip clearance value D according to the dynamic sensitivity S, that is, the blade radial displacement signal. The specific expression is: D = V / S.
[0057] Step S1024: Perform a time point number conversion on the optical fiber pulse signal to obtain the measured time point number.
[0058] In this embodiment, convert the optical fiber pulse signal into the measured time point number through a counter.
[0059] Step S1025: Determine the time point number difference between the preset theoretical time point number and the measured time point number, and obtain the blade circumferential displacement signal according to the product of the time point number difference and the current rotational speed.
[0060] In this embodiment, determine the time point number difference ΔT between the preset theoretical time point number and the measured time point number, and obtain the blade circumferential displacement signal D according to the product of the time point number difference ΔT and the current rotational speed V c . The specific expression is: D c= VΔT.
[0061] Step S103: Filter the circumferential displacement signal of the blade to obtain a target circumferential displacement signal; resample the radial displacement signal of the blade to obtain a time-series tip clearance signal.
[0062] In this embodiment, the circumferential displacement signal of the blade is filtered to obtain a target circumferential displacement signal. For example, based on the data smoothing and differential calculation (Savitzky-Golay) method of local polynomial least-squares fitting, the circumferential displacement signal of the blade is smoothed and denoised, and the offset information is removed to obtain a target circumferential displacement signal with high-frequency noise information removed. At the same time, the radial displacement signal of the blade is resampled to obtain a time-series tip clearance signal.
[0063] Please refer to Figure 4 , in a specific embodiment, step S103 includes steps S1031 to S1033, and the following will explain each step in detail.
[0064] Step S1031: Resample the radial displacement signal of the blade to obtain the blade tip clearance value.
[0065] In this embodiment, the radial displacement signal of the blade is resampled to obtain the blade tip clearance value of each blade.
[0066] Step S1032: Based on the preset static machining size of the blade, correct and compensate the blade tip clearance value to obtain a corrected blade tip clearance value.
[0067] In this embodiment, the preset static machining size D of the blade is used s to correct and compensate the blade tip clearance value D to obtain a corrected blade tip clearance value D B . The specific expression is: D B = D + D s .
[0068] Step S1033: Perform traveling wave analysis on the corrected blade tip clearance value to obtain the time-series tip clearance signal.
[0069] In this embodiment, traveling wave analysis is performed on the corrected blade tip clearance value to obtain the time-series tip clearance changes of different blades to obtain a time-series tip clearance signal.
[0070] It should be noted that the average tip clearance and the minimum tip clearance of the operating cycle of each blade can be calculated according to the time-series tip clearance changes. The average tip clearance can be used to represent the operating condition of the engine, and the minimum tip clearance can also be used for fault warning of aeroengines.
[0071] Step S104: Determine the engine blade fault information based on the target circumferential displacement signal and the timing tip clearance signal.
[0072] In this embodiment, by comprehensively analyzing the target circumferential displacement signal reflecting the vibration or deformation of the blade in the circumferential direction and the timing tip clearance signal reflecting the change of the clearance between the blade and the casing over time, the engine blade fault can be effectively identified, the sensitivity and accuracy of fault detection can be improved, the health management level of the aeroengine can be enhanced, and the problems of complex multi-sensor layout, difficult data synchronization and fusion, strong independence and lack of unity in the existing aeroengine condition monitoring methods can be solved.
[0073] In a specific embodiment, step S104 includes: obtaining the single-blade signal according to the target circumferential displacement signal, and obtaining the blade phase according to the single-blade signal; calculating the coefficient of variation according to the blade phase to obtain the variation characteristic parameter; obtaining the phase characteristic evaluation result according to the variation characteristic parameter; obtaining the amplitude warning threshold according to the blade phase, and obtaining the amplitude characteristic evaluation result according to the amplitude warning threshold and the target circumferential displacement signal; determining that the engine blade fault information is surge information or resonance information or foreign object strike fault information according to the phase characteristic evaluation result and the amplitude characteristic evaluation result.
[0074] In this embodiment, the single-blade signal of each blade is obtained according to the target circumferential displacement signal, and the blade phase of each blade is calculated according to each single-blade signal The specific expression is: where A is the tip circumferential displacement coefficient, is the phase offset information.
[0075] Further, according to the blade phase of each blade the phase standard deviation is calculated and the average phase difference and according to the phase standard deviation and the average phase difference the coefficient of variation is calculated to obtain the variation characteristic parameter U. The specific expression is:
[0076] Further, the phase characteristic evaluation result is obtained according to the variation characteristic parameter. Exemplarily, if the variation characteristic parameter is lower than the preset interval, the corresponding phase characteristic return value is set to "-1"; if the variation characteristic parameter exceeds the preset interval, the corresponding phase characteristic return value is set to "1". Among them, the preset interval can be (-60, +60), and this embodiment does not limit it here.
[0077] Further, the amplitude warning threshold D is obtained according to the blade phase max. The specific expression is as follows: In the formula, N is the number of rotor blades.
[0078] Furthermore, an amplitude feature evaluation result is obtained based on the amplitude warning threshold and the target circumferential displacement signal. Exemplarily, if the vibration amplitude of the blade, i.e., the target circumferential vibration displacement signal, exceeds the amplitude warning threshold, the amplitude feature return value is "large".
[0079] Furthermore, the engine blade fault information is determined to be surge information or resonance information or foreign object strike fault information based on the phase feature evaluation results of each blade and the amplitude feature evaluation results of each blade. Exemplarily, if the phase feature return value of all blades is "-1" and the amplitude feature return value is "large", the engine blade fault is resonance; if the phase feature return value of all blades is "1" and the amplitude feature return value is "large", the engine blade fault is surge; if the phase feature return value of some blades is "1" and the amplitude feature return value is "large", the engine blade fault is foreign object strike fault.
[0080] Such as Figure 5 The tip timing monitoring data when the compressor shown in the figure undergoes resonance. The resonance starts at the 200th revolution and recovers after the 530th revolution. In the figure are respectively the displacement vibration waveform, amplitude feature, alarm threshold, and phase feature of the blade. It can be seen that when resonance occurs, the amplitude feature curve exceeds the alarm threshold, and the phase feature curve shows -1. After the resonance ends, the amplitude feature and phase feature curves recover.
[0081] Such as Figure 6 The tip timing monitoring data in the surge section of the compressor shown in the figure. The surge starts at the 356th revolution and recovers after the 447th revolution. In the figure are respectively the displacement vibration waveform, amplitude feature, alarm threshold, and phase feature of the blade. It can be seen that when the surge occurs, the amplitude feature curve exceeds the alarm threshold, and the phase feature curve shows 1. After the surge ends, the amplitude feature and phase feature curves recover.
[0082] In a specific embodiment, step S104 includes: fitting the timing tip clearance signal to obtain the radial relative motion state; based on the cross-correlation algorithm, obtaining the unbalance amplitude and unbalance phase according to the radial relative motion state; and determining the engine blade fault information to be engine unbalance fault information according to the unbalance amplitude and the unbalance phase.
[0083] In this embodiment, the timing tip clearance signal is fitted to restore the discrete timing tip clearance to the continuous radial relative motion state between the blade and the casing within the rotation period of the aeroengine, so as to reflect the overall vibration characteristics of the rotor. The fitting methods include polynomial fitting and sine wave fitting methods.
[0084] Further, based on the cross-correlation algorithm, the amplitude and phase of the rotor's fundamental frequency component are extracted from the radial relative motion state to obtain the unbalance amplitude and unbalance phase, thereby identifying the rotor unbalance vibration parameters.
[0085] Among them, the identified unbalance phase is calculated with the characteristic blade as a reference under the condition of no key phase, that is, identifying the unbalance amplitude and unbalance phase only relies on a single sensor.
[0086] Further, based on the unbalance amplitude and unbalance phase, it is determined that the current engine blade fault is an engine unbalance fault. The principle of rotor vibration fitting and unbalance parameter identification based on the tip clearance is as Figure 7 shown. On the left is the engine main shaft and an impeller of the engine. Under the rotating state, the engine rotating shaft is vibrating in real time. The tip clearance signal reflects the radial displacement of the blade, that is, it can reflect the radial vibration of the rotor; A practical example of the time-domain early warning of the rubbing fault based on the tip clearance is as Figure 8 shown. The effect display diagram of diagnosing unbalance through the tip clearance signal: The unbalance-related component is the signal after filtering, fitting, decomposing and reconstructing the tip clearance signal. The data calculated by this method is the result of cross-correlation calculation (representing the unbalance amplitude and unbalance phase). The numerical simulation setting is the true value. It can be seen that the true value is basically consistent with the calculation result of this method, which is used to reflect the practical effect of the proposed calculation method.
[0087] In a specific embodiment, step S104 includes: detecting the sequential tip clearance signal based on the anomaly judgment algorithm to obtain an anomaly signal; performing time-frequency analysis on the anomaly signal to obtain a time-frequency energy spectrum; if there is a rubbing feature in the time-frequency energy spectrum, it is determined that the engine blade fault information is rubbing fault information.
[0088] In this embodiment, the sequential tip clearance signal is detected for anomalies based on the anomaly judgment algorithm to determine an anomaly signal. At this time, it can be warned that the aeroengine is in an abnormal state. Further, time-frequency analysis is performed on the anomaly signal to obtain a time-frequency energy spectrum. If there is a rubbing feature in the time-frequency energy spectrum, it is determined that the engine blade fault is a rubbing fault. The rubbing feature includes the peak cutting phenomenon when rubbing occurs and the non-stationary phenomenon of time-frequency. Among them, the specific expression of performing time-frequency analysis on the anomaly signal is: In the formula, D c is the decomposed anomaly signal, y i is each decomposed component, r is the decomposition residual component, is the analytical solution of each component, that is, it represents the solution result of the previous equation. N represents the number of decomposed components, j is the imaginary unit, a i is the amplitude of the i-th decomposed component, represents the phase angle of the i-th decomposed component.
[0089] In a specific embodiment, the method further includes: performing discrete wavelet decomposition on the circumferential displacement signal of the blade to obtain wavelet coefficients; calculating the modulus square of the wavelet coefficients, and obtaining a time-frequency spectrum diagram according to the modulus square; determining the blade vibration frequency according to the time-frequency spectrum diagram; determining a frequency change rate according to the blade vibration frequency and a preset modal frequency; if the frequency change rate is greater than a preset threshold, determining that the engine blade fault information is blade crack information. The actual case of time domain early warning for the rubbing fault based on the tip clearance is as Figure 9 shown. When rubbing occurs, tip clearance - calculating time domain characteristic parameters - time domain abnormal early warning. On the right side, 0 is normal and 1 is abnormal. The appearance of abnormality indicates that there may be a rubbing phenomenon; The actual case of frequency domain diagnosis for the rubbing fault based on the tip clearance is as Figure 10 shown. When judging the abnormal frequency domain, it can be seen that there is a peak cutting phenomenon, which is the characteristic of the rubbing fault.
[0090] In this embodiment, the circumferential displacement signal of the blade is denoted as the original signal x(t), where t represents time. Since the actual signal is often disturbed by noise, preprocessing is required to improve the analysis accuracy.
[0091] The preprocessing process is as follows: adopting the wavelet threshold denoising method, selecting the Symlet wavelet basis function and the decomposition level J, performing discrete wavelet decomposition on x(t), and obtaining the wavelet coefficients as the decomposition scale w j,k , and the translation parameter k. The soft threshold denoising formula applied to the wavelet coefficients is: In the formula, λ is the noise filtering threshold, usually taking σ is the noise standard deviation, and N is the signal length, that is, the number of blade rotation cycles.
[0092] Using the wavelet coefficients for denoising to reconstruct the signal, obtaining the preprocessed original signal x denoised (t), and performing wavelet transform on it: In the formula, a is the scale parameter, which is inversely proportional to the frequency, generally b is the translation parameter, representing the time position, generally taking a value equal to the rotational speed frequency, that is
[0093] Furthermore, by calculating the modulus square |W(a,b)| of the wavelet coefficient W(a,b) 2 , generating a time-frequency spectrum diagram, which is used to reflect the energy distribution of the signal at different times and frequencies. In the time-frequency spectrum diagram, the blade vibration frequency is manifested as a ridge line where the energy is concentrated. Therefore, the blade vibration frequency is obtained by extracting the ridge line. The specific expression is: In the formula, a max (t) is the scale with the maximum energy at time t in the time-frequency spectrum diagram, and f sThe adoption frequency of the single sensor at this moment, which is the rotational frequency.
[0094] Since cracks will cause a decrease in the blade stiffness, resulting in the vibration frequency deviating from the normal modal frequency. Therefore, by comparing the extracted blade vibration frequency with the modal frequency, crack faults can be diagnosed. Specifically, calculate the blade vibration frequency f when there is no fault nolmal and calculate its average frequency Calculate the average frequency of the blade suspected of having a crack fault If the frequency change rate exceeds the empirical value of 2.5%, it can be determined that the blade has a crack.
[0095] It should be noted that the target circumferential displacement signal and the time-series tip clearance signal can be fused to match different fault characteristics, and finally achieve the efficient comprehensive diagnosis and evaluation of various faults of aero-engines.
[0096] The engine fault detection method based on a single sensor proposed in this embodiment obtains the eddy current original signal and the optical fiber pulse signal of the fiber optic eddy current composite sensor; the fiber optic eddy current composite sensor is installed at the position of the aero-engine casing; calculate the blade radial displacement signal according to the eddy current original signal, and calculate the blade circumferential displacement signal according to the optical fiber pulse signal; filter the blade circumferential displacement signal to obtain the target circumferential displacement signal; resample the blade radial displacement signal to obtain the time-series tip clearance signal; determine the engine blade fault information according to the target circumferential displacement signal and the time-series tip clearance signal. In this way, by directly measuring the eddy current original signal and the optical fiber pulse signal reflecting the dynamic characteristics of the blade with a single sensor, the transmission path is shortened, the sensitivity, accuracy and measuring point utilization rate of the diagnosis are improved, the complexity of sensor arrangement is reduced, and it has the advantages of strong real-time performance, high diagnosis accuracy and wide application range. It can be used for the condition monitoring, fault warning and health management of aero-engines, and improve the safety and reliability of engine operation.
