Figure 7 Overall Punch List Data<br />
What is the value of catching these errors? Some of the errors are trivial, but others might delay the start-up of<br />
the plant or the continuance of operations until they are corrected. Still other errors might not stop the plant,<br />
but could lead to a drop in operating efficiency. Both of the last two categories might result in a loss of<br />
product quality.<br />
On the modeling side, most of the<br />
significant issues surfaced during the Joint –<br />
FAT. They were primarily issues that deal<br />
with the fidelity or truth of the model<br />
response. Modeling errors are usually not<br />
trapped during loop testing because the<br />
focus is on configuration coding. Fidelity<br />
issues are also likely to surface later as well,<br />
during training, when the focus of the team<br />
is even more on process response.<br />
A DCS configuration which could start the<br />
“virtual mill” was considered highly likely<br />
to be a configuration which would start the<br />
real mill. The virtual mill (in essence a<br />
dynamic process model, an area DCS<br />
control configuration and an array of<br />
supporting hardware and software) was at<br />
this point ready to be applied to operator training.<br />
