In this course, we’ll focus on distributed control systems (DCS) as they relate to combined cycle power plants. We’ll look at the overall purpose of a DCS and examine the components that make up the system. We’ll also look at how a DCS can be used to monitor normal plant operation, and change device states and set points. And we’ll see how a DCS can be used to troubleshoot malfunctions and abnormalities.
