Abstract :
An effort to develop an expert system dealing with failure cause analysis in closed feedwater heaters is described. The development of the prototype system is summarized, and the way in which it can be used to assist plant personnel in determining the cause of a tube failure in a feedwater heater is illustrated. A typical session with the prototype system is given
