In this paper knowledge based system technology is adopted in the application process of the ASME boiler & pressure vessel code section III for bettering design quality and efficiency of nuclear component. At present no a single knowledge representation method could express all of the ASME code's rules sufficiently, integrally and exactly. An object-oriented hybrid knowledge representation method (OOHKRM) is presented in the paper. The rule expression of the ASME code is divided into three modes such as statement, list and graphic illustration by detailed analyzing the organization characteristics and rules of the code. According to the differences of knowledge features, knowledge of the ASME code is classified approximately into three main categories : illustrative knowledge, procedural knowledge, and Meta knowledge, which are represented by list, frame, production rule and Petri net respectively for expressing the knowledge integrally and exactly. A knowledge Petri net model is also defined for the same reason. Moreover, several class objects corresponding to different types of knowledge are defined especially. The method not only reserves merits of the other four used representation methods, but also processes characteristics of object-oriented technologies. Consequently, the method has good universality while it is used to represent the knowledge of ASEM codes or other engineering standards.
