Abstract:

In order to improve the reliability and economic benefit of fan operation, a state estimation and residual life prediction method of fan spindle bearing based on grey Markov chain is proposed. Firstly, a grey distribution model of bearing wear conditionofthe wind turbine main shaft is established. Then, using the residual error correction (Markov prediction analysis method) and division of bearing wear state grade, which determines the state level interval limits, the main shaft bearing wear state transition probability is calculated and the state transition matrix of the Markov process is constructed. Finally, this method is used to calculate the life of the main shaft bearing of the wind turbine.

Key words: spindle bearing, residual life, Markov, gray model
