Today large process engineering systems, such as steam plants, are managed with process control systems (PCS). The entire system is monitored, the actuators regulated and controlled, the measurements recorded and displayed through the process control system. The ET 833 steam plant is specifically designed for training purposes in the field of power plant engineering with process control systems. The system works very similar to real large-scale plants due to the high degree of complexity. A one-time oil-fired steam boiler and a downstream electric superheater generate superheated steam for the single-stage industrial turbine, which is subjected to load through a DC generator. The energy generated is returned to the grid. The exhaust steam from the turbine is condensed and returned to the steam boiler.
