Description of the fault diagnostic method

Подпись: Fig. 2 Schematic diagram of the FDS

Figure 2 shows the overall procedure used in this work, and each block is described hereafter. But before the description of the method, it is necessary to show that neural networks are able to accurately model the components of the solar system. In fact three parts of the system are monitored: the collector array, the connecting pipe from the tank to the collectors, and the return connecting pipe. As two components are similar, only two networks will be presented here.
