This paper provides an overview of fault detection, diagnostics, and prognostics (FDD&P) starting with descriptions of the fundamental processes and some important definitions. This is followed by a review of FDD&P research in the HVAC&R field, and the paper concludes with discussions of the current state of applications in buildings and likely contributions to operating and maintaining buildings in the future.
