Advantages of the Hydro Simulator Training:

• Highly efficient learning- Training on simulator gives the feeling of operating a real power plant. By operating equipment by own hand, a participants gains confidence and expertise in a very short period, which otherwise cannot be possible in a real plant.
• No fuel cost on account of training- To run a simulator training session, there is no wastage of any material or fuel, which may otherwise be needed to run a training demonstration on a running unit. The only power consumption is few hundred watts of electricity to run the computer & display systems.
• No wastage of equipment time- A running plant is not always available for any specific type of training, whereas simulator is always available for all types of training session. Previously stored initial conditions can be used to create any plant scenario at any time, any number of times. Thus, no time is lost in terms of training needs.
• Risk free training- A slight mistake in real plant can be costly and hazardous for the life of man and machine. Hence training on a live plant will always be under great tension. Simulator relieves the trainee from all such tensions and risks. The trainee is allowed to commit mistakes and learn from them with no hazards or losses of any type.
• High retention level- Simulator training takes an operation up to 90% retention level, the tangible and intangible benefits of which are significant.
• Improved sharpness- Simulator training helps the operation staff to refresh knowledge sharpens their operation skills and improves upon reflexes. Experience gained over years of actual emergency handling can be attained within few days of training on simulator.
