Operator Guidance Simulator: A New Power Plant Training Tool Concept

The improvements and developments of power plant automation systems make operation easier. This comes along with an increased tendency for the operator of losing knowledge about his plant. The consequential need for effective training possibilities led to the development of a new well-priced simulation tool “Operator Guidance Simulator” which combines early availability with high plant similarity. It is based on Siemens’ longtime experience in simulation of power plant processes, which ranges from steady state performance simulations, dynamic plant and automation simulations to Operator Training Simulators.
