Fault Diagnosis of motor driven pump system based on fuzzy inference

퍼지추론을 이용한 전동기구동 펌프시스템의 고장진단

In this paper, a fault detection and isolation unit(FDIU) for a centrifugal pump system driven by DC-motor is proposed. The proposed scheme can be classified into the dedicated observer scheme(DOS). A fuzzy logic based inference engine is adopted for the isolation of each faults. Having the fuzzy inference engine, the proposed FDIU resolve a few important problems of the conventional DOSs with conventional two valued logic. The ouputs of the proposed FDIU are not "ith fault occurred" but the grade of memberships that indicate the consistency of observered symptoms(residuals) with each fault symptoms stored in the rule base. The ouputs can easily be transferred to the ranking of the fault possibilities and it will provide very useful informations in monitoring the process. The simulation results show that the FDIU has very good diagnostic ability even in the noisy environment.
