Abstract
Fault Detection and Diagnosis of electrical machine and drive systems are of utmost importance in modern industrial automation. The widespread use of Machine Learning techniques has made it possible to replace traditional motor fault detection techniques with more efficient solutions that are capable of early fault recognition by using large amounts of sensory data. However, the detection of concurrent failures is still a challenge in the presence of disturbing noises or when the multiple faults cause overlapping features. Multi-label classification has recently gained popularity in various application domains as an efficient method for fault detection and monitoring of systems with promising results. The contribution of this work is to propose a novel methodology for multi-label classification for simultaneously diagnosing multiple faults and evaluating the fault severity under noisy conditions. In this research, the Electrical Signature Analysis as well as traditional vibration data have been considered for modeling. Furthermore, the performance of various multi-label classification models is compared. Current and vibration signals are acquired under normal and fault conditions. The applicability of the proposed method is experimentally validated under diverse fault conditions such as unbalance and misalignment.
Highlights
Rotating electrical machines are responsible for converting a great amount of worldwide energy into mechanical energy [1]
The increasing demand for hybrid and electric vehicles, the rapid transition toward automated systems and micro and nano mechatronics devises, increasing interests for more efficient energy conversion systems, and emerging new robotics machines have been motivating further advancement in the rotating electrical machines reported in the works of scholars, e.g., [7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18]
The rest of this paper is organized as follows: in Section 2, we briefly introduce the latest multi-label classification methods, and we derive a new methodology for multi-fault diagnosis and severity assessment for rotating electrical machines and drive systems
Summary
Rotating electrical machines are responsible for converting a great amount of worldwide energy into mechanical energy [1]. Transportation, logistics, construction, production, agriculture, food, automation, and basically any economic activity and industry directly or indirectly depend on rotating electrical machines, as discussed in literatures, e.g., [2,3,4,5,6]. The rapidly evolving industries have suggested that we will be witnessing a further increase in this rate [7]. The increasing demand for hybrid and electric vehicles, the rapid transition toward automated systems and micro and nano mechatronics devises, increasing interests for more efficient energy conversion systems, and emerging new robotics machines have been motivating further advancement in the rotating electrical machines reported in the works of scholars, e.g., [7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18]. The reduction and prediction of faults occurring in electrical machines
