Abstract:
This thesis proposes an ultrasound condition monitoring technique to
determine the condition of rotating equipments and deals with detection of
fault conditions based on measurements of ultrasound made on rotating
machines in Garri-4 power plant. Features data, from different case studies,
were analyzed and used to give results to define the machine condition. The
results indicated that the ultrasound technique is accurate method for the
inspection of rotating machines in various mechanical systems. By using
ultrasound technique, rotating equipments condition was identified
accurately and its faults were detected during the operation before the failure
occurred.
