摘要
The vibration signals of hydropower units are nonstationary when serious vortex occurs in the draft tube of the hydraulic turbine. The traditional signal analysis method based on Fourier transform is not suitable for the nonstationary signals. In the face of the nonstationarity of such signals and the limitation of the empirical mode decomposition method, a new nonstationary and nonlinear signal analyzing method based on variational mode decomposition (VMD) is introduced into hydropower unit vibration signals analysis. Firstly, VMD is used to decompose the signal into an ensemble of band-limited intrinsic mode functions components. Then, frequency spectrum analysis of these components is conducted to obtain the characteristic frequencies of the signal caused by the serious vortex of hydraulic turbine. Analysis of real test data shows that this proposed method can effectively suppress mode mixing. It can realize accurate analysis of nonstationary vibration signals. This provides a new way for analyzing hydropower unit vibration signals.
