Unfortunately, no reservations were found for the realization Control room operation and simulation EN00BH57-3005. It's possible that the reservations have not yet been published or that the realization is intended to be completed independently.
Objective
After completing this course, you will be able to
describe the cooperation of main machinery and other process devices of a power plant
analyze the working principles of main measurement, control, valve and motor loops in power plant processes
present the arrangement and operation of process control systems in energy production processes
use human machine interfaces (HMI) of process control systems
run power plant simulators and analyze power plant processes related to them.
Content
How are fuel and air feed, combustion and flue gases, water feed, steam production and power generation functionally related to each other?
How are you able to affect the production of high pressure steam, the electric power of a turbine or the toxic emissions of flue gases?
What kinds of control systems are needed in large-scale, centralized or small-scale, distributed energy production?
How should an operator take the fuel feed into a manual mode or start a feed water pump?
How should we take care of functional safety in energy production?
