Abstract:The intended aim of the paper was to present a short review of more than 15 years of experience of ITWL in the field of applying the signal of actual rotational speed (aperiodic and oscillation components thereof) to the expert diagnosing of aero-engines, including identification of low- and high-cycle fatigue (LCF, HCF) of critical structural members. What has been presented is some essential metrological bearings of the non-contact technique of measuring the engine’s rpm with some flexible key phasors (i.e. … Show more
“…However the method can be used in a monitoring system to track changes of vibration frequency. It is confirmed that the fundamental frequency decreases when a fatigue crack is initiated and developed [11], [13], [17]. …”

“…It also introduces significant uncertainty into vibration measurement. In some cases it is possible to make it redundant using reference signal derived from tip-timing sensors [11], [18]. Alternatively, TOA data from different tip sensors can be analysed in pairs as differential deflections [20].…”

“…Several tailored designs have been developed for sensing compressor and turbine blades made of ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic materials, offering resolution about 20um. They were applied in: All stages of compressor and turbine of SO-3 turbojet [11][13] [17] Fan stage of K-15 turbojet Military turbofan -fan, compressor, HPT, LPT [7] 1st stage of Spey turbofan tested in spin pit in Patuxent River [14] Industrial fan in the desulphurization system in a convention power plant [16] Inductive sensor is the first choice technology for health monitoring applications due to long life, high reliability and resistance to contamination.…”

“…They were successfully employed in monitoring system for blade vibration, which was developed in Poland for turbojet training aircrafts (Szczepanik & Witoś, 1998;Witoś & Szczepanik, 2005). It is the first airborne tip-timing system implemented worldwide and is still in use by Polish Air Forces.…”
