Aiding fault diagnosis under symptoms masking in dynamic systems

Article Abstract:

Fault diagnosis in large-scale dynamic systems such as power plants is complex due to changing system states. The effects of a symptom-bookkeeping aid (SB-aid) for diagnostic performance in a simulated sub-system of nuclear power plants were studied and it was found that the SB-aid improved overall performance.
