Integrated Controls and Health Monitoring Fiberoptic Shaft Monitor. Task E.5 , Amendment 3

Abstract

Recent work has been carried out on development optical technology to provide real time monitoring of shaft speed, shaft axial displacement and shaft orbit of the OTVE hydrostatic bearing tester. Results show shaft axial displacement can be optically measured (at the same time as shaft orbital motion and speed) to within 0.3 mills by two fiberoptic deflectometers. This paper presents the final results of this condition monitoring development effort. (JHD)
