open-in-new
<h2 id="elements">Elements</h2> <p>An OTS uses a dynamic simulation of the process in order to generate the appropriated data to feed an emulation of the plant's control system. The elements of a typical OTS are the following:<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:2" href="#fn:2"><sup>2</sup></a> </p> <ul><li>Dynamic simulation software<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:3" href="#fn:3"><sup>3</sup></a></li> <li>Process model<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:4" href="#fn:4"><sup>4</sup></a></li> <li>Instructor interface<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:5" href="#fn:5"><sup>5</sup></a></li> <li>Control system integration software<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:6" href="#fn:6"><sup>6</sup></a></li> <li>DCS emulator<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:7" href="#fn:7"><sup>7</sup></a></li> <li>Replica of the operator station<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:8" href="#fn:8"><sup>8</sup></a></li></ul> <h2 id="applications">Applications</h2> <p>Common applications of OTS systems are the following: </p> <ul><li>New control room operator training (e.g., start-up, shutdown, and emergency procedures)</li> <li>Existing control room operator refresher training (e.g., start-up, shutdown, and emergency procedures)</li> <li>Platform for advanced process control (APC) and optimization</li> <li>Validating DCS control and logic checkout</li> <li>Validating and improving plant operating procedures</li> <li>“What if?” analysis (scenario analysis)</li> <li>Engineering tool for developing and testing new control strategies</li></ul> <h2 id="see-also">See also</h2> <ul><li><a href="/facts/Dispatcher_training_simulator/ddFvyGxf">Dispatcher training simulator</a>, a computer system for training operators of electrical power grids</li> <li><a href="/facts/E-learning/5lf2A2Vj">E-learning</a></li></ul> <h2 id="references">References</h2> <ol> <li id="fn:1"><p>"Excellence with Operator Training Simulator".
