Reactor (CSTR / Batch) Control - Training Guide
============================================================

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

SIMULATOR OVERVIEW
----------------------------------------
Chemical reactor simulator covering CSTR and batch modes with temperature control, conversion tracking, and runaway prevention per API 520 and DIERS guidelines.

Standards: API 520 · DIERS · IEC 61511

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: Pre-charge reactor vessel checks
  Step 2: Start agitator
  Step 3: Start jacket cooling water
  Step 4: Begin feed addition
  Step 5: Ramp temperature to setpoint
  Step 6: Monitor conversion and temperature
  Step 7: Verify pressure within limits
  Step 8: Complete reaction — begin discharge

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

  CSTR Steady-State Operation:
  Start CSTR, establish feed, achieve target conversion at steady state.

  Batch Reaction Cycle:
  Execute batch: charge, heat, hold, cool, and discharge sequence.

  Thermal Runaway Prevention:
  Detect exothermic runaway precursors and activate emergency cooling/quench.

ALARM RESPONSE
----------------------------------------
  RUNAWAY [ALARM]: Thermal runaway — temperature rate >5°C/min
  PRESS_HIGH [ALARM]: Reactor pressure exceeds relief setpoint
  TEMP_HIGH [WARNING]: Reactor temperature approaching limit
  COOL_FAIL [ALARM]: Cooling water failure
  AGITATOR_FAIL [WARNING]: Agitator speed deviation
