The current thermal power simulation systems

which are all on the basis of local area network environment of power plant and the fixed training place

are limited by the district

resource

time and maintenance.In order to solve this problem

a cloud computing based thermal power simulation platform was put forward.Its features and architecture were elaborated

and solutions for such problems as simulation resource scheduling

collaborating simulation

simulation model migration and security mechanism that may occur during the platform foundation were presented.The application showed that

this cloud computing based platform has superiority in aspects like integrating simulation resource

saving hardware cost and optimizing simulation service.The optimization direction for practical application of this platform was given.
