Abstract:V magistrskem delu je prikazana uporaba interaktivnih simulacijskih okolij v virtualni resničnosti pri usposabljanju študentov in kemijskih inženirjev za varno vodenje procesov. Namen naloge je prikazati pomen virtualne resničnosti in možnosti, ki jih ta tehnologija ponuja na področju kemijskega inženirstva. Večina študentov ob koncu študija namreč nima predstave o obsegu in kompleksnosti delovanja kemijskih obratov zaradi omejenih možnosti pridobivanja praktičnih izkušenj med študijem. Zaradi vedno večje kompleksnosti in višje stopnje avtomatizacije v kemijski industriji pa primanjkuje tudi ustreznih vsebin za usposabljanje kemijskih inženirjev pri reševanju izrednih ali nevarnih situacij. Z uporabo programske opreme TSC Simulation smo izvajali dinamične tridimenzionalne simulacije procesa trifazne separacije surove nafte, pri katerih smo upravljali s procesom, rokovali s procesnimi enotami in se seznanili z delovanjem regulacijskih zank ter varnostnih sistemov v obratu. Izvajali smo dinamične simulacije postopkov, ki se v realnih obratih izvajajo občasno in predstavljajo varnostni izziv, npr. zagon in zaustavitev procesa. Poleg tega smo izvajali dinamične simulacije odpovedi procesnih naprav in napak v sistemu, kjer smo predstavili načine za identifikacijo okvar in pripravo načrtov za njihovo odpravo. Scenariji so vključevali napake v delovanju regulacijskih zank, odpovedi procesne opreme (ventilov, črpalk) in sprožitve varnostnih sistemov v nujnih situacijah. S pridobljenim znanjem smo oblikovali tudi lastno simulacijo procesa, ki je namenjena usposabljanju kadra za pripravljenost na večje kognitivne obremenitve, poleg tega pa spodbuja analitično razmišljanje ter sodelovanje med operaterji v nadzorni sobi in procesnimi tehnologi v obratu. Rezultat dela je nabor scenarijev, ki predstavljajo za študente edinstveno in celovito izkušnjo obvladovanja virtualnega procesa, saj povezujejo osnovna kemijsko-inženirska znanja z znanji regulacije, dinamike, separacije, optimizacije in varnosti procesov. Z njimi smo prikazali, kako bi simulacije virtualne resničnosti vključili v učni proces oz. ustvarili mikrodokazila za usposabljanje kadra v industriji.

Title:Virtual reality simulations for training chemical engineers in safe process operation
Abstract:The master's thesis demonstrates the use of interactive simulation environments in virtual reality for training students and chemical engineers in process safety management. The aim of the thesis is to demonstrate the importance of virtual reality and the possibilities this technology offers in the field of chemical engineering. At the end of their studies, most students have limited understanding of the scope and complexity of chemical plant operations due to insufficient opportunities to gain practical experience during their studies. Due to the increasing complexity and higher degree of automation in the chemical industry, there is also a lack of suitable content for training chemical engineers in dealing with emergencies or hazardous situations. Using TSC Simulation software, we performed dynamic three-dimensional simulations of the three-phase separation process of crude oil, in which we managed the process, handled process units, and familiarized ourselves with the operation of control loops and safety systems in the plant. We performed dynamic simulations of procedures that are performed occasionally in real plants and pose a safety challenge, such as process start-up and shutdown. In addition, we performed dynamic simulations of process equipment failures and system errors, where we presented methods for identifying faults and preparing plans for their repair. The scenarios included malfunctions in control loops, failures of process equipment (valves, pumps), and the activation of safety systems in emergency situations. With the knowledge gained, we also designed our own process simulation, which is intended to equip staff in situations with a higher cognitive load, while also encouraging analytical thinking and cooperation between operators in the control room and process engineers in the plant. The result of this work is a collection of scenarios that provide students with unique and comprehensive experience of mastering the virtual process, as they combine basic chemical engineering knowledge with knowledge of process control, dynamics, separation, optimization, and safety. With these scenarios, we have demonstrated how process simulations in virtual reality could be incorporated into the learning process or used to create micro-credentials for staff training in industry.
