DeltaV™ Mimic

Integrated and Scalable Dynamic Process Simulation

DeltaV™ Mimic is a real-time, dynamic simulation platform built to deliver the business results of the Digital Twin to the process industries. It is a key technology towards top quartile performance. Simulation must be a practical investment for any operations manager to make, regardless of the size of the plant or the industry. It must allow plant operations to reduce the cost and risk of improving the operation and control of the plant and support upskilling of the work force. Mimic provides value to the execution of capital projects and control system modernization as well as the lifecycle operation performance of the plant.

Traditional training programs often prioritize equipping personnel with the skills needed for routine plant operations but tend to neglect preparation for unforeseen events. However, it is essential for operators to be well-versed in handling a wide range of potential incidents that could occur during plant operations.

DeltaV Mimic Train offers an advanced solution by enabling highly accurate virtual replications of real-world processes. Designed for industries such as manufacturing and complex process operations, Mimic Train empowers organizations to enhance performance, minimize downtime, and improve safety. Through scenario testing and predictive analysis, businesses can proactively address challenges and optimize operational readiness.

Features

  • Improve Control Performance – Mimic provides an environment for process control improvement while reducing the risks and errors in new and existing control system configurations.
  • Improve Operator Performance – Improve the performance of your operators by allowing training on startup, shutdown, abnormal situations, and infrequent plant upsets. In addition, operator training with Mimic can accelerate new operator skill development and facilitate knowledge transfer from experienced operators to inexperienced operators.
  • Support Cost Effective Compliance – Mimic minimizes costs associated with compliance by allowing control system and operating procedure validation without impacting the operation of the actual plant.
  • Reduce Risk of Plant Operations – Mimic’s ability to test process safety levels of protection and other operational tasks in an off-line environment reduces the risks associated with running the real-world plant.
  • Scalable, Flexible Model Fidelity – From low to medium to high, Mimic provides real-time performance. This unique capability allows you to apply the required level of model complexity to fit the requirements of the unit operation or task.
  • Easy Integration – Mimic automatically integrates to DeltaV and other control system simulators. Mimic’s Simulated IO Drivers integrate signals from the IO and process models to control systems using the communication standards required by the control system vendor.
  • One modeling environment can drive IO signals to different control systems at the same time.
  • Setup and integration time is minimized with utilities in Mimic that read the control system configuration and generate the Simulated IO relationship and IO models automatically.
