What software to use for process design
Thread Content
What software do you generally use for process design? We are a small unit with no professional design. Occasionally when we build a new workshop, we use auto cad to draw a few flow charts and simple construction drawings. I would like to know what software do you usually use for design? Will the design issue detailed process flow diagrams, pipeline layout diagrams, and construction drawings?
It seems that you are a new graduate and your unit is not big. Strictly speaking, the design and renovation of a factory should require construction drawings, and it needs to be done by a unit with design qualifications. For your process design, it is recommended to use AUTOCAD. Read more in the forum, I believe you will have a lot of insights. I work in a large state-owned petrochemical enterprise, and I gain something different from the forum every day. Other: “Build a new workshop once in a while”? It won't be that easy, :lol
The design will produce detailed PID process flow diagrams, equipment and pipeline layout diagrams, single-line empty views, pipeline grade tables, material summary tables, etc.
We usually take a long time to build workshops, and they are usually our own company's projects. We both do our own projects and develop our own applications. A new workshop was built last year. I am familiar with the process, so I was responsible for the design of process pipelines and public works. When I first started, there was no one to guide me. I was able to complete it based on what I learned in school and combined with the workshop. Moreover, because our workshop is relatively small and the pipe specifications are small and numerous, we are unable to issue supporting construction drawings, and all installation instructions are on-site. Alas, when I graduated, Sinopec Construction Company asked me to go, but I didn’t go. Now that I think about it, I am getting farther and farther away from a high level! I will learn more from you in the future * That’s right! !
Generally, Atuo CAD and PDMS are used. The diagrams generally include PID process flow diagrams, pipeline layout diagrams, material summary tables, etc., as well as construction drawings.
