Module 5

Fault diagnosis of Rotational Machines:
Unbalance, shaft and coupling misalignments, bent shafts, gear and bearing wear, oil whirls and shaft eccentricity.
Measurement Strategies and Techniques:
A wide range of strategies and associated technologies will be discussed including light emission (photo multipliers, fiber optic techniquesetc.), heat emissions (IR, cameras, direct temperature measurement, etc.), electrical charges (tan d, electrical particle discharge, etc.), force, power and vibration.
Data Processing and Analysis:
For each of the approaches, options with respect to data processing and analysis will be discussed including digital signal processing and computational techniques. Close attention will be paid through examples of the cost benefits and the reliability which can be placed on data with respect to formulating a view on the condition of a give item of plant.

Course Outcomes:

On completion of this subject students will be able to:

  1. Understand maintenance objectives and evaluate various maintenance strategies for process plant application, Develop necessary planning and scheduling and control of preventive maintenance activities.
  2. Evaluate reliability of a simple plant component and system.
  3. Understand and apply the advanced concepts such as RCM and advantages for a company employing them
  4. Understand and apply the advanced concepts such as TPM and advantages for a company employing
  5. Applythe principles of condition monitoring systems.
  6. Apply the mechanical condition monitoring techniques and analyze the data used in condition monitoring
