Bearing Vibration Dataset of a Hydropower Project

Twelve months of bearing vibration data acquired from the SCADA system installed at a Hydro Power Project Operating in Pakistan, having a total generation capacity of 969 MW. The number of units installed are four, each having a generation capacity of 242.25 MW. The data is recorded from the horizontal vibration runout system of the Turbine Guide Bearings installed at Unit No. 01. A fault had occurred in the Turbine Guide Bearings of Unit 01 during operation, hence the data contains both clean and faulty data points. Furthermore, the reason for acquiring twelve month data is to encompass both the lean water period where turbines face a lot of turbulence and the peak season where turbines normally operate seamlessly.The data has been used in the following research articlesAfridi, Yasir Saleem, et al.
