Abstract :
The paper describes the issues that have to be dealt with by Failure Detection Systems that process a large number of highly correlated signals. As an example of such system, a Failure Detection System responsible for detecting flow restrictions in liquid cooled stator windings of electric power generators is studied. Field data is presented.
