Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] As a key component in the power system, the gas turbine has high system integration and automation, and the corresponding operation, maintenance and repair technology has high requirements. Before the trainee maintenance operation, the instructor should first explain the function characteristics of each subsystem of the gas turbine to the trainee in detail, and then demonstrate the correct maintenance steps and skills to the trainee through actual operation. In the process of training and explanation using the entity prototype machine, since the subsystems are highly integrated in the whole gas turbine, it is difficult to disassemble and display alone, which undoubtedly brings great challenges to the trainee to deeply understand the actual running state and unique function of each subsystem. By using virtual reality technology to simulate the real running state of the equipment in the real environment, the instructor can simultaneously explain the function of each subsystem and vividly demonstrate the system maintenance skills to multiple trainees, which has a highly immersive experience and a light virtual reality interactive operation environment, providing a full-factor and full-process virtual instructor teaching platform for trainees. Through the search of the prior art documents, it is found that the patent "a virtual reality industrial simulation training system" applied by Chen Xuewen et al. integrates virtual reality technology and industrial simulation training into a general method suitable for industrial operation, which has achieved good results. However, the application of this method in the field of gas turbine is limited, it cannot meet the needs of the instructor in teaching function, and it also lacks detailed teaching materials for the function of gas turbine subsystems.
