Abstract
A process for the early detection of a possible fault in a rotary component of an engine wherein a signal representing an acceleration is stored in a sequential manner; the stored signal is transformed into a frequency signal a spectral coherence calculation is performed between said frequency signal and the same frequency signal shifted by frequency values predetermined as a function of the speed of the engine; the sequences are counted for which a correlation peak appears for one of the predetermined frequencies and a fault is deemed to be present if for a number P of consecutive sequences the number of sequences with a correlation peak is greater than a predetermined threshold.
