Aiming at the characteristics of fault diagnosis, adopting the advantages of Visual Prolog language in the process of knowledge representation and logical reasoning, taking the catalytic cracking unit with high accidents in process industry as an example, a rule-based fault diagnosis expert system is designed and implemented. Facts and rules, which are the two phrases of Visual Prolog language, are used to realize the compiling of knowledge base and reasoning. Taking the practical application of catalytic cracking unit as an example to verify, cases studies show the effectiveness of diagnosis system, effectively realize the inference and analysis of abnormal conditions, timely find the fault reasons, and provide the appropriate measures for fault handling.
