<![CDATA[Impact fatigue life of valve leaves has great influence on energy saving performance and lifetime of small hermetic reciprocating compressors. This paper presented a test system that intended to analysis and evaluate of impact fatigue life of valve leaves used in small hermetic reciprocating compressors. Firstly, an incentive system was designed to simulate real work condition for valve leaf. Then, a data acquisition system was built to collect the sound signal while valve leaf was being under test. Simultaneously, the system could control the working state of incentive system so that test could be terminated automatically once fatigue was detected. Finally, fatigue detection system was designed to detect fatigue of valve leaf. Fatigue detection was the key point of this test system. Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and Wavelet Packet Transform (WPT) were applied to analyze sound signal, both of which were effective in detecting the damage through analyzing. Facts showed that the test system provided a feasible approach to evaluate impact fatigue life for valve leaf manufacturing. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v11i12.3675]]>
