Abstract
Most of the failures during the actual operation of equipment are caused by improper human operation, tools, spare parts, and environmental factors. These faults are routine. Conventional faults have been validated during equipment development, testing, identification, and maintenance processes, with clear definitions and clear fault tree analysis (FTA) conclusions. Digital twins can offer rapid and interactive diagnostic capabilities for routine equipment failures. To enhance the efficiency of routine fault diagnosis and the interactive experience of the diagnosis process, this paper proposes a digital twin-based equipment routine fault diagnosis model. On this basis, considering the excellent interactivity of the Interactive Electronic Technical Manual (IETM), a conventional equipment fault diagnosis scheme based on twin data and IETM is designed. This scheme converts the equipment fault tree into an IETM fault data model (DM), which is structured and stored in a database to form a fault database. Using real-time twin data of equipment as input, the FTA method is adopted to perform step-by-step fault diagnosis and isolation guidance operation through the IETM process DM combined with fault, while providing maintenance operation guidance. When the real-time twin data of the equipment is not completely consistent with the fault information in the fault library, the case analysis method is used to calculate the similarity between the real-time twin data of the equipment and the clearly defined fault symptom information in the fault library. Based on the set similarity threshold, IETM pushes fault DMs above the threshold for corresponding fault diagnosis isolation guidance.
