This book applies traditional reliability engineering methods to prognostics and health management (PHM), looking at remaining useful life (RUL) and its dynamics, to enable engineers to effectively and accurately predict machinery and systems useful lifespan. One of the key tools used in defining and implementing predictive maintenance policies is the RUL indicator. However, it is essential to account for the uncertainty inherent to the RUL, as otherwise predictive maintenance strategies can be incorrect. This can cause high costs or, alternatively, inappropriate decisions. Methods used to estimate RUL are numerous and diverse and, broadly speaking, fall into three categories: model-based, data-driven, or hybrid, which uses both. The author starts by building on established theory and looks at traditional reliability engineering methods through their relation to PHM requirements and presents the concept of RUL loss rate. Following on from this, the author presents an innovative general method for defining a nonlinear transformation enabling the mean residual life to become a linear function of time.

Solar Thermal Conversion Technologies for Industrial Process Heating presents a comprehensive look at the use of solar thermal energy in industrial applications, such as textiles, chemical processing, and food. The successful projects implemented in a variety of industries are shown in case studies, alongside performance assessment methodologies. The book includes various solar thermal energy conversion technologies and new techniques and applications of solar collectors in industrial sectors. Solar energy is the largest and most widely distributed renewable energy resource on the planet and can be utilized for a wide range of applications, such as solar water heating, photovoltaic electricity generation, solar thermal energy generation, and all manner of passive and active solar architectures. Besides environmental consciousness, the dwindling of traditional energy sources also marks solar energy as the appropriate energy source to meet the increasing energy demand worldwide. Solar thermal collectors can be used effciently to meet the heating needs of industrial processes because many industrial processes in various industries operate at temperatures ranging from 80 °C to 240 °C. Industrial energy analysis shows that solar thermal energy has enormous applications at low (i.e. 20–200 °C), medium, and medium-high (i.e. 80–240 °C) temperature levels. Almost all industrial processes require heat in some parts of their processes.

This book focuses on the comprehensive prevention and control methods for short-circuit faults in power systems. Based on the quantification method of power system short-circuit fault risk considering extreme meteorological disasters, this book carries out theoretical research on optimal control of power system short-circuit faults at the planning and operation levels. The establishment of a comprehensive index system for short-circuit safety level of large power grids from several sides and the realization of a panoramic display of consequences of short-circuit faults in power grids are one of the features of this book, which are especially suitable for readers interested in learning about short-circuit fault solutions in power systems. This book can benefit researchers, engineers, and graduate students in the fields of electrical engineering, power electronics, and energy engineering.
