Introduction

What Is Condition Monitoring?

• Condition monitoring (CM) is the process of monitoring a


parameter of condition in machinery (vibration, temperature etc.)
in order to identify a significant change which is indicative of a
developing fault. It is a major component of predictive
maintenance.
What and when to monitor

• Traditionally quantities, such as line currents and voltages, coolant


temperatures, and bearing vibration levels, have been measured and will
continue to be used.

• Other specialist methods, involving the accurate measurement of rotational


speed or the sensing of leakage fluxes, are being developed in order to
monitor a variety of fault conditions.

• One should monitor when it is cost-effective to do so, or when there are


over-riding safety considerations to be observed. The assessment of cost-
effectiveness can be a relatively complex matter
CM Techniques
• The following list includes the main condition monitoring techniques

applied in the industrial and transportation sectors

• Vibration Analysis and diagnostics

• Lubricant analysis

• Acoustic emission (Airborne Ultrasound)

• Infrared thermography

• Ultrasound testing (Material Thickness/Flaw Testing)

• Motor Condition Monitoring and Motor current signature analysis (MCSA)

• Model-based voltage and current systems (MBVI systems)


Naval ships
CM IN MARINE INDUSTRY

• Condition Based Predictive Maintenance(CBPM) is an effective


tool in monitoring the heartbeats of a machinery. CBPM is an
advanced tool in predicting the behavioral patterns of machinery
components.

• Ships of more than 12 years old shall be considered as posing a


higher risk.

• Depending on the type of vessel, these may range from a full ship
analysis using a complete structural direct analysis to the analysis
of individual elements such as shaft alignment and vibration.
• The measurements include parameters such as temperatures
and pressures for various machinery equipment and systems
located in the engine room of the vessel.

• Naval ships unlike merchant ships consist of complex


machinery and are subjected to rigorous exploitation pattern
owing to war deployments. This results in early wear and tear
of machinery.

• CBPM strategy can be utilized in systematic monitoring of


equipment fitted onboard ships and enable implementation of
E-maintenance strategy.
• In order to better understand the philosophy behind the
inspection requirements, ship structural components presented
here.
Ship hull failure
Which failures can be diagnosed with
vibration analysis
• Bearing wear and lubrication
• Misalignment
• Bend shaft
• Resonances
• Flow related problem (cavitations )
VIBRATION MONITORING
• Vibration monitoring first begins with acquiring an accurate time-varying

signal from a vibration transducer, such as an accelerometer.

• Narrowband analysis

Narrowband analysis is basically the analysis of FFT spectrum in a close

band of frequencies to determine the vibration frequencies present and

how these vibration frequencies relate to the rotating speed (rpm)of the

various machine components

• signal analysis

Time-varying signal and splitting it into components, each with an

amplitude, a phase, and a frequency.


FACTORS AFFECTING SHIPS STRUCTURAL
INTEGRITY
The term "structural integrity" as used here is intended to
convey the employment of structural design, material
utilization, and fabrication technologies in the production of a
ship.
• Load,
• corrosion,
• weld ability,
• material selection.
HULL GRIDER
Hull Girder:
• The main functions of a ship's hull girder are to act as a
watertight envelope, to support local hydrostatic loads, and to
resist the bending loads applied on the structure.
• Lot of marine accidents that involved failure of the hull
structures. Whether it was a crack in the midship region, failures
due to propagation of cracks
• Mostly, crack propagation takes place due to fatigue,
Ultrasonic Thickness Measurement (UTM)

• In the field of transportation, ultrasonic testing, ultrasonic


thickness measurement(UTM) is a method of performing
nondestructive measurement (gauging) of the local thickness of
a solid element (typically made of metal, if using ultrasound
testing for industrial purposes) basing on the time taken by the
ultrasound wave .
• The INCASS project aims in integrating robotic platforms,
structural and machinery reliability tools in order to enhance
ship inspection, maintenance, safety and performance.
• Structural components such as main deck plating, butts
and seams are checked. It uses non-destructive techniques
such as ultrasonic method and magnetic particle methods
for its measurements and analysis. All the welds are tested.
Maintenance oriented strategy onboard
naval ships
• A suitable software should be developed to incorporate the details of
equipment and just clicking on a particular equipment will give all
the maintenance activities carried out and also indicate ships fitted
with same equipment.

• The maintenance activity onboard a naval ship can be undertaken by


developing suitable software to integrate the measurements
undertaken on a mechanical component with electronic equipments.
