ANSI/ISA-77.20-1993 (R2005) Fossil Fuel Power Plant Simulators - Functional
Requirements
General reference,
softbound, 44pp.
$65.00
Establishes the functional requirements for several types of fossil-fuel power plant control room simulators primarily used for operator training. Sets criteria for the degree of hardware replication and software modeling detail. Does not completely address stand-alone DCS-based trainers/simulators, or simulators used for engineering or test purposes. Does not establish criteria for the use of simulators in training programs.
Scope:
This standard establishes the functional requirements for several types
of fossil-fuel power plant control room simulators primarily used for
operator training. It sets criteria for the degree of hardware replication
and software modeling detail, performance, and functional capabilities
of the simulated control room instrumentation. This standard does not
completely address stand-alone DCS-based trainers/simulators, nor simulators
used for engineering or test purposes such as part-task training devices
intended for specialized training. This standard does not establish criteria
for the use of simulators in training programs.
Operating and training practices and procedures differ considerably among the various organizations that operate fossil-fuel plant control room simulators; however, the goals of personnel safety, maximum equipment availability and lifetime, and efficiency of operations are common to all. Therefore, this standard is intended to provide flexibility in both design and use.
