Gear Fault Diagnoise Based on Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition and Instantaneous Energy Density Spectrum

Article Preview

Abstract:

A very short impulse energy called ‘impulsion energy’ can be produced when the gear meshing with gear pitting fault and excited the resonance of the structure. The common techniques have inconvenience to deal with this vibration signal. A new fault diagnosis method based on EEMD and instantaneous energy density spectrum is proposed here. The IMFs generated by EEMD can alleviate the problem of mode mixing and approach the reality IMFs. The characteristic frequencies were found in the instantaneous energy density of Hilbert spectrum. The effectiveness of this method was demonstrated by analysis the vibration signals of a gear with pitting fault.
