ABSTRACT:
A cement mixing and pumping simulator comprises actual and virtual equipment. In response to an operator controlling this equipment, signals representing operating characteristics of a cement mixing system realistically represented by the actual and virtual equipment are generated. These signals are communicated for displaying the operating characteristics to the operator so that the operator obtains real-time responses to the operator's control of the actual and virtual equipment. A method of simulating operation of a cement mixing system comprises: operating, at a master control location within actual equipment of the cement mixing system, at least one actual control device of the cement mixing system; operating, at the respective location of each, at least one of the actual equipment located away from the master control location; determining characteristics of material flow through the cement mixing system in response to the operation of the at least one actual control device and the at least one actual equipment without actually flowing material through the cement mixing system; and displaying the determined characteristics in real time with the operating and determining steps. This method preferably further comprises recording data identifying a performance evaluation of an operator in response to a comparison between at least one of the determined material flow characteristics and a corresponding predetermined characteristic.
