Abstract :
The author proposes a method for identifying and locating the origin of a fault of a piece of equipment by using approximate linear quantitative equations in variable increments which are derived from the equations representing the steady state of the equipment. In the proposed method, because only linear equations are dealt with, it has the advantages of being easy to implement and process and of taking much less computation time
