An Integrated Approach Based on Improved CEEMDAN and LSTM Deep Learning Neural Network for Fault Diagnosis of Reciprocating Pump

The reciprocating pump plays an important role in the petrochemical industry procedure, it is crucial in ensuring the systematic safety and stability. Since the useful feature information of the vibration signal from the reciprocating pump tends to be overwhelmed by the background ingredients, it is tough to realize the recognition on typical modes. Aiming at the extraction of reciprocating mechanical fault features and mode recognition, this paper proposes Improved Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with Adaptive Noise and LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory) deep neural network algorithm. Firstly, the IMF components are obtained by decomposing the vibration signals from the reciprocating pump with the Improved CEEMDAN algorithm, in which the key parameter β

is improved and redefined, for optimizing SNRs (Signal Noise Ratio) of the IMF (Intrinsic Mode Function) components. Then the corresponding singular spectral entropy is calculated and the feature vector is constructed. The classification modal based on LSTM deep network is developed in the data dividing-training and the final mode recognition process. The study shows that the proposed method can effectively extract the fault features of vibration signal of the reciprocating pump, and the testing modes could be accurately recognized with the developed classification model.
