Abstract

The paper deals with a model-based fault diagnosis for a catalytic cracking converter process realized using artificial neural networks. Modelling of the considered process is carried out by using a locally recurrent neural network. Decision making about possible faults is performed using statistical analysis of a residual. A neural network is applied to density shaping of a residual. After that, assuming a significance level, a threshold is calculated. The proposed approach is tested on the example of a catalytic cracking converter at the nominal operating conditions as well as in the case of faults.
