The EPRI conference and workshop on incipient failure detection was held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on March 10-12, 1987. As with the previous two EPRI meetings on this topic, this one presented new and updated diagnostic monitoring techniques for a number of equipment failure modes found in fossil and nuclear plants. These proceedings include the text of presentations at the conference formal sessions, together with summaries of the discussions from the working group meetings. The formal sessions included two tutorial presentations as well as 38 technical papers grouped under the following subjects: utility monitoring systems, vibration signature analysis, acoustic leak detection, generator monitoring, rotor crack detection, turbine, pump, and fan monitoring, boiler and steamline monitoring. The tutorials addressed Vibration Diagnostics and Vertical Pump Monitoring. Each of these contributions has been abstracted and index separately.
