Summary: | The Internet of Things (IoT) concept, alongside wireless technologies, supports the mounting of sensors in inaccessible positions and thus provides new opportunities for machine condition monitoring. This paper outlines experimental results using Prism signal processing to track rotor angular acceleration via a Wireless Acceleration Sensor (WAS) mounted on a rotating shaft. The instantaneous frequency and amplitude of each component of the angular acceleration is tracked, with a view to providing diagnostic information. The experimental results illustrate how amplitude data can provide indications of gear faults, via further Prism signal processing. |
