Solid basis for profitability Service Solutions Instrumentation, Controls & Electrical Training & Consulting Dynamic Plant Analyses (Studies) The unique know-how of Siemens in power plant technology and Instrumentation & Control allows dynamic plant analyses at the very highest level – the precondition for optimal plant operation. Your Benefits ■ Demonstration of potentials for improving the efficiency and the dynamic plant behavior ■ Dependable information for economic plant operation and competitiveness, providing a reliable basis for key investment decisions ■ Reliable basis for investment decisions The Task To optimize the efficiency of a power plant and therefore the competitive position, the plant operator has to know in detail how “the plant ticks”. The more data on the dynamic behavior of the plant is available, the bigger the possible potential for improvements – or the greater the assurance the power plant is running at its optimal level. For comprehensive analysis of the dynamic plant behavior, in-depth know-how of automation technology and a plant manufacturer is invaluable. Our Solution Our studies analyze all key parameters of the dynamic plant behavior and show concrete potentials for improvement. The experience Siemens gathered in the field of power plant construction and the unique experience of our experts in technology and Instrumentation & Control are a guarantee of significant and reliable results. Depending on your individual situation and on the information demand of the plant operator we offer two different variants for our studies. In addition we carry out dynamic tests to determine the behavior of the closed loop controls – e.g. plant start up simulations. These tests will be carried out on site by our experts together with your personnel. After analyzing these operating curves, the results will be documented in a detailed report about the plant situation. The operator will receive a comprehensive report about possible improvements of the dynamic plant behavior (e. g. reduction of the plant start up times, increasing of gradients, better overall performance of closed loop control). The Compact Solution – Short Studies Detailed studies include interviews with the power plant personnel and the analysis of existing data. A short presentation of the results completes this offer. Depending on the results the study may be upgraded to a detailed study. As a power plant operator you will receive a comprehensive and thorough analysis of the actual situation of the entire plant – including possible weak points and potentials for improvement. The results of our studies lay the foundations for the most economical and competitive operation of your plant. Plant Studies ensure the security of the investment. The Optimal Solution – Detailed Studies Detailed studies include interviews with the power plant personnel and the analysis of existing data such as operating curves, closed loop control concepts, and P&I-diagrams.
