Abstract: Incipient warning of sudden unbalance faults for rotating machinery is a difficult problem in engineering practice in the field of current condition monitoring, and it is of great significance to avoid disaster accidents caused by unplanned downtime of equipment. Aiming at the situation of abundant normal data and lack of fault data in practical engineering applications, an incipient warning and diagnosis method of sudden unbalance faults for rotating machinery is proposed. Characteristic indicators of historical data for normal operating conditions are extracted, and an incipient warning model based on support vector data description is built to detect incipient fault trends. Then, the mode identification is carried out applying reinforced fault diagnosis method including reinforced feature extraction, reinforced feature transfer, and reinforced pattern recognition three steps. Two groups actual engineering failure cases of petrochemical enterprises are used as test data, the incipient warning method is 2 400 min and 4 330 min earlier than the traditional vibration peak-to-peak alarm, respectively. The identification accuracy of the reinforced fault diagnosis method for two groups test data is 95% and 90%, respectively. Compared with other fault identification methods, the diagnosis accuracy and F-Score are the highest, and the standard deviation is the lowest. The results indicate that the proposed method possesses more excellent incipient fault detection performance, good robustness to cross-domain data fault identification of different equipment and working conditions, and strong domain generalization ability.
