Ships will always have faults in their Engine. We stress the importance of training for ship engineers to solve the faults of marine engines. The following three points in the training system for fault diagnosis have been modified and improved.
1.Utilization of fault map.
Causes of faults are listed horizontally and symptoms of faults are listed vertically.
2.Development of the tool of making data base for training system.
While referring to the fault maps, the composer can feed usefull information into the personal computer.
Since it is important to decide upon the finding order of fault parts, he can make use of AHP (Analytic Hierarchy process) in the tool.
3.Adoption an expert system written by LISP.
Trainees can take data from the data base, and they have exercise to solve the faults of marine engine with this tool.
