Operator Training Simulator Handbook

Operator training simulators in the process industry have been around since the 1970s, but you may not find a book that documents the development of these systems and the standard best practices. The Operator Training Simulator Handbook covers best practices for OTS engineering and OTS training development and delivery, starting from the basic the jargon and the different types of OTS systems. It will take you through the best approaches to project specification as well as building, maintenance, planning, and delivering these systems by sharing real-life experiences and dos and don’ts.
As you advance, you'll uncover the various challenges in the planning and delivery of operator training models and understand how to address those by working through real-world projects. This book helps in specifying the best fit for purpose, choosing a cost-effective system when acquiring an OTS. You'll also learn how you can turn your OTS projects into digital twins before finally learning all about documentation in a typical OTS project, covering the sample structure that you can use as a starting point in your projects.
By the end of the book, you'll have learned best practices for developing operator training simulator systems and have a reference guide to overcome common challenges.

key features
Learn OTS project delivery best practices from the author's 30 years of experience * Explore use cases to understand how your OTS systems can maximize ROI for users * Discover how to best develop OTS training models for developers and users
approach
After the introduction and the calcification of the different types of OTS’s, the book will go into introducing a V model to develop the OTS. It explains every step of the development process with examples of real projects. One chapter is also dedicated to sample project documentation that can be used as templates for real projects.
audience
This book is for suppliers who build and deliver OTS systems, OTS buyers, or companies looking to invest in these systems. Anyone with an interest in OTS systems, including university students or graduates who will work on these systems, will find this book useful. Basic knowledge of either OTS systems, ICSS control systems, or process engineering will help you grasp the concepts covered in this book.
