Cloud Simulation
Our secure, on-demand Ovation simulation cloud service improves system accessibility and minimizes owner maintenance time.
Ovation™ power plant simulators with digital twin technology can help transition personnel and technology during times of change, and improve operations through development, testing, and training.
Ovation simulators can be tailored to meet the operational challenges of any power generation facility including coal plants, combined-cycle and simple-cycle plants, or renewable energy. Utilizing empirical, mixed-fidelity, or high-fidelity models, Ovation simulators provide a full range of solutions to fit your needs and budget.
Through simulation, you can gain confidence in new control strategies before implementing them on the power plant’s distributed control system. This practice results in fewer unexpected plant incidences, avoids plant trips, reduces maintenance expenses, and leads to safer operations and greater availability.
As an engineering tool, simulators provide a realistic platform for evaluating plant equipment modifications before project execution. With the ability to easily explore various ‘what-if’ scenarios, plant engineers can better assess the effect of plant changes prior to making an investment, thus reducing risks and improving the results of implemented projects.
Emerson’s new high-fidelity, embedded simulator is a digital twin that allows operators to experience a huge variety of situations and scenarios virtually indistinguishable from a genuine control room environment.
