DYNSIM Power Simulation Software Validates Controls and Trains Operators on new DCS
Company: Intermountain Power Service Corp. Industry: Power software.schneider-electric.com DYNSIM Power Simulation Software Validates Controls and Trains Operators on new DCS Goals • Replace the existing simulator as part of a DCS upgrade project to help prepare operations for the new user interface and control logic changes. • New simulator to replicate the actual dynamic response of the operations and without any significant loss of megawatt production. Challenges • Validate the control logic against actual operations • Build operator knowledge and confidence in the new DCS prior to going on-line • Eliminate unplanned downtime or emergency shutdowns Solutions and Products • DYNSIM ® Power simulation Results • Validated control logic and identified and fixed critical errors pri
