Over two decades delivering CCGT & GT simulators worldwide
WSC has provided numerous full-scope replica Combined Cycle Gas Turbine (CCGT), Simple Cycle Gas Turbine (GT), and IGCC simulators to power generating companies worldwide — applicable to any plant in operation, under construction, or newly designed.
Solutions for Every Investment Level
The most effective solution to meet individual plant training needs — a high-fidelity simulator built to exactly match your specific plant configuration and DCS.
A cost-effective middle-ground — a standard simulator adapted to key aspects of your plant, upgradeable to full plant-specific fidelity at a later stage.
Minimizes initial investment with a proven generic platform. Can be upgraded progressively to become a fully plant-specific simulator over time.
Multi-DCS Expertise for CCGT Plants
A unique challenge of Combined Cycle simulators is the multiple DCS systems needed to control the plant — most CCGT plants have a minimum of two DCS systems in a single facility. WSC has extensive experience applying DCS solutions across all configurations, having worked with over 20 DCS and PLC systems used in the power industry.
Real DCS hardware driven by simulated plant I/O signals for maximum fidelity training.
Mix of real and virtual DCS components tailored to project scope and budget constraints.
Fully software-based DCS replica running within the 3KEYMASTER™ environment.
Software replication of DCS logic and behavior — no dedicated hardware required.
Full-Featured Simulation Control
The 3KEYMASTER™ Instructor Station provides a flexible environment with embedded features for monitoring, validation, scenario management, and trainee assessment — including thousands of malfunctions for building realistic training exercises.
Real-time monitoring of key plant variables with historical trending for analysis and scenario review.
Built-in tools to verify simulator fidelity against reference plant data and acceptance criteria.
Structured scenario creation with event triggers and automated testing for consistent training quality.
Thousands of generic and specific malfunctions — instructors can replicate plant behaviors and demonstrate abnormal conditions to operations staff.
Objective assessment and performance recording for each training session and operator evaluation.
Configurator
For almost two decades, WSC has delivered over 40 custom simple and combined-cycle gas-turbine simulators. Completing the configurator questionnaire helps WSC formulate the optimal CCGT or Simple Cycle simulator solution for your specific training needs — and gives registered clients access to a downloadable demonstration featuring a full-scope high-fidelity simulator with a DCS interface.
