7、roduction Rotating blades are considered as the most common cause of failures in rotating machinery. The blade failure modes normally occur as a result of cracking, high cycle stresses, blade rubbing, blade root looseness, degradation from erosion and corrosion. Therefore, early fault d
8、etection is important in reducing blade related failures and hence there is a need of a reliable and simple blade health monitoring (BHM) technique. Sinha et al. 1 recently analyse the in-situ measured vibration data at the bearing pedestals during the steady state and the transient operations in th

Al-Bedoor 2 gave the review of different research methods that has been attempted for blade vibration measurements till year 2002. In-situ casing

Strain measurement on the blades during the machine operation is another option 4, this is where strain can be measured directly and hence the stress and possibly residual blade life can be estimated 5. The blade tip time (BTT) has received attention in recent years and it can id
12、entify blades with high vibration 4,6. However both the BTT and the strain measurement methods are intrusive and exorbitant methods. Hence there is a need for reliable and simple but robust method to meet the requirements of the BHM. The use of the encoder in rotating machines is seems

The shaft instantaneous angular speed (IAS) signal from the encoder raw signal based on time-intervals change between successive pulses is nothing but the representing the shaft torsional vibration. This method is generally non-intrusive and non- e

A few of them include the identification of faulty combustion cylinder(s) in the diesel engines 7,8 using the crank shaft IAS signal and the IAS response of the shaft with fault(s) in rotating machine 9,10. It has also been r

It was experimentally verified on small rigs, and the mistuning effect on the blade natural frequency was also observed 11,12. Maynard and Trethewey13 have also demonstrated the field appli

Analytical simulations 14 and Huang and Ho 15 have also shown the potential of the shaft torsional vibration that could be used as the condition monitoring for turbine blades. However, Sinha et al. 16 could not iden

Hence the shaft IAS has been extracted from the measured encoder data during the machine transient operation to
18、 understand the dynamics of the blades and to explore the possibility of reliable assessment of the blade health. A series of experiments were conducted on a test rig with an 8-bladed disc for three different conditions: (1) healthy with mistuned effects, (2) blade root looseness and (3) blad

These conditions are often observed in practice for the rotating machines like steam turbines, gas turbines, etc. and hence the early and reliable detection of the faulty conditions (2) and (3) is important. The extracted IAS signal from the encoder raw data during the machine run-u

The measured shaft torsional vibration shows a distinct difference between the healthy and the faulty blade conditions and
21、hence the observations may be useful for the BHM in future. The paper presents the IAS extraction process from the encoder measurement, rig details, blade faults simulations, experiments conducted and the observations on the blade dynamics which may possibly lead to the BHM in future. 2.Instan
22、taneous angular speed (IAS) measurement An encoder that measures 360 pulses for every complete rotation of a shaft has been used for the present experiment. To aid the understanding of the IAS signal extraction from the measured encoder pulse train, a simplified measurement scheme of th
23、e encoder and the pulse train is shown in Fig. 1. The sensor simply measures the gap between each tooth on the gear during its rotation which results in the pulse train of the measured gap voltage with time as shown in Fig. 1. The extraction of instantaneous angular speed (IAS) signal using the puls
