A Vibration Fault Identification Framework for Shafting Systems of Hydropower Units: Nonlinear Modeling, Signal Processing, and Holographic Identification.

The shafting systems of hydropower units work as the core component for the conversion of water energy to electric energy and have been running for a long time in the hostile hydraulic-mechanical-electrical-coupled environment-their vibration faults are frequent. How to quickly and accurately identify vibration faults to improve the reliability of the unit is a key issue. This study proposes a novel shafting vibration fault identification framework, which is divided into three coordinated stages: nonlinear modeling, signal denoising, and holographic identification.
