1. A simulation system, comprising: a processor; and a memory communicatively coupled to the processor, the memory having stored thereon computer-executable components configured to implement at least part of the simulation system, the computer-executable components including: a suggestion component configured to request a subset of device models, from a plurality of device models, and a subset of industry models, from a plurality of industry models, based on a set of specifications for an industrial system and an indication of an industry type to which the industrial system pertains, wherein the plurality of device models model performance of a respective plurality of industrial devices, and the plurality of industry models encode performance data for a plurality of industry types; and a simulation component configured to create a simulation model of the industrial system using the subset of the industrial models and one or more device models of the subset of the device models selected via an interface configured to present the subset of the device models as one or more equipment options, wherein at least one of the one or more equipment options is rendered as a schematic that outlines a recommended equipment configuration.
