A computer implemented method for the maintenance optimization of a fleet or group of turbomachinery assets is disclosed. The method comprises the step of model training and setup, aiming at setting configurations parameters, that can be executed offline, and the step of online calculation on new input data, which is based on detected data and extracted statistical features. An anomaly identification and classification follow, thus calculating a risk assessment, for estimating the risk that an anomaly might cause any event that requires a maintenance task to be executed on one or more assets of the fleet.

Hybrid risk model for maintenance optimization and system for executing such method

The arrangement for monitoring rubbing between a rotary part and a stationary part in a rotating turbomachine comprises at least one mechanical oscillations detector for measuring mechanical oscillations at least one point of the turbomachine, at least one particles detector for measuring debris passing in at least one section of a flow path of the turbomachine, and an electronic monitoring unit electrically or electromagnetically connected to the oscillations detector and the particles detector, and arranged to acquire and process signals generated by the oscillations detector and the particles detector. The electronic monitoring unit uses the oscillations measurement primarily for estimating presence of rubbing and the debris measurement primarily for estimating severity of rubbing.

A method to monitor the health status of a rolling bearing of a machinery, including a first acquiring step of a rotation speed value of a shaft coupled to the rolling bearing, a second acquiring step of a first signal generated by a vibration sensor located on the machinery in a position distant from the rolling bearing, and a first calculating step of a variation of the shaft rotation speed value during a predetermined time interval, and if the calculated variation of the rotation speed falls within a predetermined variation interval, performing a first filtering step of the first signal with a first algorithm based on a vibration produced by parts of the machinery different from the bearing at the rotation speed value, so as to obtain a second signal representative of a bearing health status.
