1990년 7월 이후 #2 베어링에서 발생한 오일 휩 현상을 감지하고서도 그 주원인을 일반적으로 흔히 발생하는 사항에서만 해결방안을 찾으려 노력한 결과 3년 반의 시간이 경과되었고, 뜻하지 않게도 저널 직경의 불균일에 의한 오일 휩 현상임 을 뒤늦게 알게 되었다. 철저한 점검의 필요성을 강조하지 않을 수 없다. 증기터빈 의 Overhaul 작업완료 후 Oil Flusning 절차가 있는데 이 Oil Flusning 방법에 문제 가 있다. 보통은 작업완료후 로터를 정지한 상태에서 베어링 앞에 Oil Strainer(Fine Mesh)를 설치하고 오일 펌프를 기동하여 Flushing을 하는데 이때 Strainer를 통과한 작은 이물질이 베어링내에 축적되었다가 터빈 기동시 이 이물질과 로터가 접촉되어 저널이 손상되게 된다. 인천화력3호기 #2 베어링의 오일 휩을 일으키게 한 저널의 편마모 현상도 이와같은 경우임에 틀림없다. 왜냐하면 '90, O/H시 #2 베어링 저널의 직경은 원통형이었기 때문이다. 따라서 Oil Flusning은 터빈 구조상 불가능한 경우 도 있겠지만 베어링 by-pass Oil Flushing 시스템으로 개조 운영되어야 저널 및 베어링 마멸현상을 제거할 수 있고 이로인한 오일 휩 현상도 예방할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

전기설비는 기능을 향상 유지하기 위한 올바른 설계, 시공 및 적절한 보수, 관리를 해야 된다. 설비관리에서 일상적인 보수는 모터의 베어링이나 브러시의 마모, 형광등이나 전구의 교체등 기능면의 유지에 중점을 둔 점검, 정비가 입체로 되어 있다. 또한 전기설비를 안전하게 사용하기 위해 실시하는 전기설비 관리도 정전, 감전, 화재를 미연에 방지하기 위해 중용한 사항이다. 여기서는 고압수전의 중소규모이 자가용 전기설비를 중심으로 인입설비, 수변전설비, 배전설비 및 사용설비의 보수, 관리의 체크포인트에 대하여 설명하기로 한다.

A study on motor current signature analysis has been executed for monitoring the fault of journal bearing due to wear. The air gap eccentricity of motor produces specific frequencies in motor current, the supplied current frequency plus and minus rotational rotor frequency. The air gap eccentricity is simulated by the clearance of Journal bearing. The amplitudes of the specific frequencies increase with the increasing clearances. The amplitudes of the specific frequencies continue to increase over the wear limit that is used in the manufacturer of the test motor. Though clear relations between the amplitudes of the specific frequencies and the clearances are not obtained in this paper, the specific frequencies can be used as an indicator of a journal bearing fault. Further study is necessary to make out the quantitative relations between the specific frequencies and the clearances.

Condition monitoring plays a vital role since it sustains reliable operation of industrial plants and machinery in the pursuit of economic whole life operation. In order to achieve this goal, it is needed to monitor various parameters of mechanical system such as vibration, wear, temperature and etc., and finally to diagnosis the root causes of any possible abnormal machine condition. In this work, a machine failure caused by mechanical looseness was experimentally simulated and on-line measurement of the vibration, wear and temperature were simultaneously measured. For the quantitative analyses of machine wear, several statistical parameters of the wear particle size distribution were obtained through the center moment method of the Weibull distribution function, and they were compared to vibrational characteristics. Results showed that the wear and vibrational characteristics did not reveal a strong correlation each other in a loosely supported proceeding bearing.

During the start-up of 500 MW class coal-fired power plant, abnormal shaft vibration was occurred on bearings installed on both side of high and intermediate pressure steam turbine. Shaft vibration was analyzed to investigate the reason and find the resolution, based on well-known theory in this study. Typical vibration characteristics which occur when rotating parts contact with stationary parts were observed at the analysis of frequency, amplitude and phase angle. The reason of abnormal vibration was assumed to be rub and internal parts wear was observed during repair period. As a result of applying low speed turning and balancing for resolution of abnormal vibration, balancing was more effective for rub removal. So balancing could be excellent resolution in the case of abnormal vibration which is similar to this study.

With the increase in adoption of tilting pad journal bearings (TPJBs), various failure mechanisms related to TPJBs have been reported, of which pad wear is a frequently reported one. Pad wear causes change in geometry of the bearing, which can sometimes result in the failure of the entire system. The objective of this research is to investigate the influence of pad wear on the pad temperature, which is one of the widely used condition monitoring methods for TPJBs. For the theoretical investigation, thermohydrodynamic (THD) analysis was conducted by solving the generalized Reynolds equation and the 3D energy equation. The results of the analysis show that the temperature of the loaded pad increases while that of the unloaded pad decreases, when there is wear on the loaded pads. In addition, the minimum film thickness decreases with an increase in the wear depth. A validation test was conducted with a test rig, which mimics the axial turbine when a test rotor is supported by two TPJBs. The test bearing consists of five pads with a diameter of 60 mm, and a resistance temperature detector (RTD) is installed in the pad for temperature monitoring. The test was performed by replacing the two loaded pads with the worn pad. The test result for the TPJB with wear depth of $30{\mu}m$ show that the temperatures of the loaded pads are $8^{\circ}C$ higher and that of the unloaded pad is $2.5^{\circ}C$ lower than that of the normal TPJB. In addition, the predicted pad temperature shows good agreement with the measured pad temperatures.
