Abstract:In the work of large hydro generator, the running state of the thrust bearing is related to the efficiency and safety of the generator; Therefore, in the process of the operation of the hydro generator, the data of the bearing system should be monitored in real time, and the generator can be operated under the condition of control. The system adopts LabVIEW based multi-channel parallel data acquisition structure, realize the real-time data acquisition of the test data of the bearing system and the temperature of the thrust bearing, oil film thickness, the motor speed and the collected real-time data display, display screenshots of the interface and the analysis of the test data, processing, recording and preservation function, realize the sharing of data between different computer using DataSocket technology at the same time, so that a plurality of test personnel real-time recording and analysis of bearing system data. The test results show that the data acquisition system of the portable thrust bearing system has the advantages of stable and reliable operation, high accuracy of data acquisition and control, easy to check the data for the test personnel, and so on.
