KSE: a real-time expert system to diagnose nuclear power plant failures

摘要

KSE is an expert system developed as an operator aid at EDF, that monitors all aspects of the electric power supply in a 900 MW PWR nuclear power plant (Bugey unit 2). KSE is mainly used as a continuous and real-time aid for diagnosing electrically induced failures and as a non real-time aid. Its architecture is based on a two-level design/application structure. The GENSIA I and GENSIA II inference engines and Bull SPS7/25 (DPX 2000) computers.
