[0024] Figure 1 is a flow chart of a method for monitoring a pump station host unit failure according to the present invention;

[0025] Figure 2 yes Figure 1 Flow chart of step S2 is shown. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings so that the purpose, features and advantages of the present invention can be more clearly understood. It should be understood that the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, but are only intended to illustrate the essential spirit of the technical solution of the present invention.

[0027] The first embodiment of the present invention provides a method for monitoring faults of a pump station main unit, wherein the pump station main unit is equipped with a plurality of acceleration vibration sensors, which can be installed on the housing of the guide bearing of the motor of the pump station main unit, for example, to detect the vibration of the guide bearing of the motor. The acceleration vibration sensor is commercially available and will not be described in detail here. Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the pump station host unit fault monitoring method may include the following steps:

[0028] S1. Obtain the vibration acceleration signal collected by the acceleration vibration sensor and perform anti-aliasing digital filtering and data extraction to obtain vibration waveform data. The output of the acceleration vibration sensor can be connected to a special data acquisition device (card), which performs anti-aliasing digital filtering on the collected vibration acceleration signal to reduce the aliasing frequency component in the signal to a negligible level and perform data extraction. Anti-aliasing digital filtering and data extraction are well known and will not be described in detail here.

[0029] S2. Input the vibration waveform data into the envelope algorithm module to calculate the vibration envelope waveform. Specifically, it includes:

[0030] S21. Perform bandpass filtering on the vibration waveform data, including second-order low-pass filtering and fourth-order high-pass filtering. Among them, due to the low speed of the main unit of the pump station, the characteristic frequency of the corresponding component failure is not high. Therefore, the upper limit of the low-pass filter turning frequency is selected as 20kHz, and the lower limit of the high-pass filter turning frequency is selected as 10Hz. Specifically, the turning frequency of the second-order low-pass filter can be selected between 100 and 20000Hz; the turning frequency of the fourth-order high-pass filter can be selected between 10 and 4000Hz.

[0031] S22. Rectify the vibration waveform data after bandpass filtering. Specifically, take the mathematical absolute value of each data point of the waveform data.

[0032] S23. Determine whether enhanced demodulation is needed. If so, enter S24, otherwise enter S25. In order to more effectively filter the interference of high-frequency signals on the low-frequency diagnostic signals of interest, it is possible to consider enhanced demodulation of the waveform data, that is, to perform an envelope calculation (also called the first envelope calculation). The enhanced demodulation function can be checked by the operator and is related to the specific components of the pump station host group to be monitored.

[0033] S24. Perform the first envelope calculation to obtain the vibration envelope waveform data. Specifically, construct an exponential decay coefficient function Assign the first data point of the waveform data to A0, and calculate the calculated envelope data of the next data point according to the constructed exponential decay coefficient function If the waveform data of the next data point is greater than the calculated envelope data, assign the waveform data of this data point to A0, and assign the time corresponding to this data point to t0, and reconstruct the exponential decay coefficient function; if the waveform data of the next data point is less than the calculated envelope data, use the calculated envelope data, that is, replace the waveform data of this data point with the calculated envelope data, and the exponential decay coefficient function remains unchanged; calculate each waveform data point in turn; where, t0 refers to the time corresponding to the waveform data greater than the calculated envelope data, A0 is the waveform data at the t0 moment, t refers to the time starting from the t0 moment, τ is the time constant, τ = 4.1 / eHPF seconds, eHPF is the cut-off frequency of the high-pass filter of the envelope, which is the same as the cut-off frequency of the fourth-order high-pass filter in S21, and the decay rate is the time constant τ in the exponential decay coefficient function.

[0034] S25. Perform second-order low-pass filtering, fourth-order low-pass filtering, and fourth-order high-pass filtering on the vibration waveform data (without enhanced demodulation) or the vibration envelope waveform data (after enhanced demodulation) in turn. Specifically, when enhanced demodulation is required, perform second-order low-pass filtering on the vibration envelope waveform data after the first envelope calculation, and when enhanced demodulation is not required, directly perform second-order low-pass filtering on the rectified waveform data; then perform fourth-order low-pass filtering, and finally perform fourth-order high-pass filtering to filter out the ringing ripples of the residual structural natural resonance frequency that may exist in the waveform data. Among them, the cut-off frequency of the second-order low-pass filter is the same as the cut-off frequency of the fourth-order high-pass filter in step S21, the cut-off frequency of the fourth-order low-pass filter is vHPF~eHPF, and the cut-off frequency of the fourth-order high-pass filter is 0.01Hz~vLPF, where, eHPF is the cut-off frequency of the high-pass filter of the envelope, which is the same as the cut-off frequency of the fourth-order high-pass filter in S21, vHPF is the variable cut-off frequency of the high-pass filter, and vLPF is the variable cut-off frequency of the low-pass filter. In a specific embodiment, the frequency ranges of vHPF and eHPF are 0.01~4000Hz, and vHPF < eHPF; the frequency range of vLPF is 0.01~4000Hz. In practice, the specific values of vHPF and vLPF are set according to experience and machine components.

[0035] S26. Perform a second envelope calculation to obtain the peak-to-peak value and peak value of the vibration envelope (peak-to-peak value divided by 2). To obtain the peak-to-peak value and peak value of the vibration envelope, another envelope calculation (also called the second envelope calculation) is required. The second envelope calculation is basically the same as the first envelope calculation, except that the selection of the time constant τ is different. The specific process is: assign the first data point of the waveform data to A0, and according to the exponential decay coefficient function Calculate the envelope data for the next data point If the waveform data of the next data point is greater than the calculated envelope data, the waveform data of the data point is assigned to A0, and the time corresponding to the data point is assigned to t0, and the exponential decay coefficient function is reconstructed; if the waveform data is less than the calculated envelope data, the calculated envelope data is used, and the exponential decay coefficient function remains unchanged; each waveform data point is calculated in turn, and after completion, the waveform data is subjected to a first-order low-pass filter to filter out the ripple. When vHPF is greater than or equal to 2.5Hz, τ is 2.7 seconds, and when vHPF is less than 2.5Hz, τ is 8.1 / vHPF seconds. In a specific embodiment, the turning frequency of the first-order low-pass filter is 0.3Hz.

[0036] S3. Determine whether the peak-to-peak value of the vibration envelope is greater than a preset value. If so, issue a fault alarm. Specifically, if the peak-to-peak value of the vibration envelope is greater than the preset alarm value, the system generates an alarm signal (e.g., sound, light, text, color, or a combination thereof) and the operator participates in the processing. It should be understood that whether the peak value is greater than the preset value can also be used as an alarm condition.
