Distributed Fault Diagnosis Framework for Nuclear Power Plants
Abstract
A fault diagnosis can quickly and accurately diagnose the cause of a fault. Focusing on the characteristics of nuclear power plants (NPPs), this study proposes a distributed fault diagnosis method based on a back propagation (BP) neural network and decision tree reasoning. First, the fault diagnosis was carried out using the BP neural network and decision tree reasoning, and then a global fusion diagnosis was performed by fusing the resulting information. Second, the key technologies of the BP neural network and decision tree sample construction were studied. Finally, the simulation results show that the proposed distributed fault diagnosis system is highly reliable and has strong diagnostic ability, enabling efficient and accurate diagnoses to be realized. The distributed fault diagnosis system for NPPs provides a solid foundation for future research.
