A Condition Based Maintenance Monitoring System for Naval Shipboard Machinery
Abstract
A demonstration model of a Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) monitoring system has been developed and installed on a high pressure compressor. The CBM model is a distributed, microprocessor-based system incorporating graphical man/machine interface, expert system and local area network software. The CBM model integrates commercially available hardware and software packages with software, sensors and monitoring techniques currently under development. The intent is to apply CBM broadly to naval shipboard machinery for fault detection, diagnosis and prognosis (DD&P). The knowledge gained by implementing increasingly sophisticated systems will be used to develop generic CBM guidelines for naval machinery and ship system designs. This report presents a detailed description of the CBM monitoring system and discusses design issues. This report also presents future development plans for CBM. Keywords: Automated machine monitoring, Expert systems, Machine health, Condition based maintenance, Fault detection, Process control, Distributed monitoring, Fault diagnosis, Prognosis, Shipboard machinery monitoring.
