Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of aerospace power system testing, and specifically provides an aerospace power vibration signal acquisition system and a usage method, which are particularly suitable for the acquisition and analysis of high-synchronization vibration data at multiple measurement points during system-level hot tests. Background Technique

[0002] Currently, PXIe buses are mainly used in equipment in the field of dynamic testing. Equipment chassis based on PXIe buses have the advantages of flexibility, software customization, integrated technology of modular instruments, high data throughput, and high synchronization. Therefore, they have been well-received in the dynamic testing market since their introduction.

[0003] Since system-level hot tests have a large demand for the number of vibration points and a high synchronization requirement between measurement points, while meeting the environmental test requirements of commercial aerospace products, the service fees generated can be used for the research and development of autonomous equipment based on PXIe buses, accumulating technology and generating profits to form a virtuous cycle. Therefore, it is imperative to develop a vibration data acquisition system based on PXIe buses. Moreover, with the development of industrial production and the continuous improvement of the modernization level of equipment, the performance requirements for equipment are also getting higher and higher. Therefore, the condition monitoring and fault diagnosis of equipment have also become the focus of attention, especially in the aerospace field, where the equipment status needs to be monitored and analyzed in a timely manner.

[0004] Although existing data acquisition equipment based on PXIe buses has the advantages of high throughput and modularity, limited by foreign technology blockade, there are obvious shortcomings in the fields of high-speed and high-precision analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and integrated analog channels in China. In addition, aerospace power system tests require high-synchronization acquisition at multiple measurement points, and traditional equipment is difficult to meet the real-time requirements in complex environments. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present invention provides an aerospace power vibration signal acquisition system and method, aiming to solve the problems of low synchronization and weak anti-interference ability at multiple measurement points.

[0007] Preferably, the dynamic data acquisition card is based on an AD7606-8 analog-to-digital converter, supporting an external trigger signal interval judgment function. When the trigger interval is less than the preset sampling length, invalid triggers are automatically ignored.

[0008] Preferably, the FPGA accumulates the number of turns N and the number of pulses M of the encoder in real time. N and M are respectively stored in 16-bit registers and uploaded to the host computer synchronously with the trigger signal.

[0009] Preferably, the interface of the signal conditioning unit uses a DIN41612 double-row bent pin connector, supporting direct connection of analog signals and power input.

[0010] Preferably, the host computer realizes dynamic configuration of acquisition parameters through LabVIEW software, including sampling rate, number of channels, and trigger conditions.

[0011] A method for acquiring vibration signals for aerospace power includes the following steps: Initialization stage: The host computer issues parameter instructions to configure the sampling rate, the number of trigger points, and RS232 forwarded data. Standby mode: Default sleep state, and the working mode is switched through host computer instructions. Data acquisition: The acquisition is started by the rising edge of an external trigger. The FPGA synchronously records the encoder pulse numbers N and M and uploads the data to the host computer in real time through Ethernet. Synchronization control: The synchronization signal outputs a high level during acquisition and returns to a low level after stopping to ensure multi-point synchronization. Exception handling: When the external trigger interval is less than the preset sampling length, invalid triggers are automatically blocked.

[0012] Preferably, the encoder pulse counting includes ABZ phase detection, where the pulse count increases during forward rotation and decreases during reverse rotation, and the complete number of turns is recorded through the Z phase.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The present invention supports high-synchronization acquisition of multiple measurement points with an error less than 1 μs; it is compatible with domestic hardware, reducing R & D costs; the intelligent trigger mechanism reduces the amount of redundant data and improves efficiency; it has strong scalability and can adapt to various types of sensors such as temperature and shock.
