The absorbing matrix of a volumetric (directly irradiated) solar receiver must be exposed to the concentrated incoming sunlight. Most applications require that the receiver operates at an elevated pressure and in many cases the working fluid is not air. These requirements can be met only if the receiver is equipped with a transparent window. A novel frustum-like high-pressure (FLHiP) window, made of fused silica, is presented. Optical, mechanical, and thermal analyses, over 1,000 hours of accelerated life-time tests and several hundred hours of tests in a solar receiver, show that this window satisfies the required criteria for operation in a volumetric solar receiver, whose operating pressure and peak absorber temperature reach 30 bar and 1700°C, respectively.

A goodness-of-fit test for testing the acceleration function in a nonparametric life time model is proposed. For this aim the limit distribution of an L2-type test statistic is derived. Furthermore, a bootstrap method is considered and the power of the test is studied.

This paper proposes a new accelerated life test method of hydraulic pump used in vehicles, which have multiple alternating loads. For determination of life time of hydraulic pump for given field conditions with respect to duty cycle, the equivalent load and speed of this unit has to be determined. Equivalent load and speed can be calculated from the given duty cycle using the predominant theory for cumulative fatigue damage. Finally, we can perform accelerated life test on hydraulic pump by determination of test pressure and speed from calculated equivalent cumulative damage per working cycle and weighted average speed.
