Hydroelectric Plant - Training Guide
============================================================

MINIMUM RESOLUTION: 980 x 600 px
RECOMMENDED: 1920 x 1080 (16:9) or larger

SIMULATOR OVERVIEW
----------------------------------------
Hydroelectric power plant simulator covering Francis/Kaplan turbine operation, wicket gate control, penstock flow, and governor response per IEC 60041 and IEEE 1020.

Standards: IEC 60041 · IEEE 1020 · ASME PTC 18

INTERFACE LAYOUT
----------------------------------------
- LEFT PANEL: System controls (Start/Stop/ESD/Reset, Mode toggle)
- CENTER: P&ID schematic with real-time process visualization
- RIGHT PANEL: System gauges, operational checklist, alarm list

OPERATING PROCEDURES
----------------------------------------
  Step 1: Verify reservoir level adequate
  Step 2: Open intake gate
  Step 3: Fill penstock — vent air
  Step 4: Start governor oil pump
  Step 5: Open wicket gates gradually
  Step 6: Accelerate turbine to rated speed
  Step 7: Synchronize generator to grid
  Step 8: Increase load to desired output

SCENARIOS
----------------------------------------

  Plant Start-up:
  Open intake gates, fill penstock, start turbine, and sync generator.

  Flood Control Operation:
  Manage high reservoir inflow — coordinate spillway and turbine discharge.

  Island Mode Operation:
  Operate in island mode supplying local grid — manage frequency and voltage.

ALARM RESPONSE
----------------------------------------
  OVERSPEED [ALARM]: Turbine overspeed — governor failure
  PENSTOCK_PRESS [ALARM]: Penstock pressure exceeds design
  BEARING_TEMP [WARNING]: Guide bearing temperature high
  CAVITATION [WARNING]: Cavitation detected in runner
  HEAD_LOW [WARNING]: Headwater level below minimum
