How to read a process flowchart?

I’ve been looking at some technical drawings lately, but I feel really confused; I hope some experienced colleagues can give me some advice

First, read the instructions on the process diagram, which provides a brief overview of the process flow. Understand the process flow and its principles, and by referring to the instrument control diagrams and legend explanations, it will be easier to comprehend everything. Of course, it’s best to do this in conjunction with the actual site conditions.

It would be best if you posted the image so that other sailors can explain it to you. Your description is too vague, making it difficult to answer! Actually, the best way is to ask your colleagues around you; learning from them is the best option

Two methods: 1. View by stream, track one medium by assigning different colors and explain it in conjunction with the process flow. 2. Examine the individual units of equipment, identify their feed and discharge processes as well as the related equipment, and gradually expand the analysis to the entire unit. With focus, it’s easy to get started quickly.

Sigh, I haven’t even seen the actual equipment yet

But the manager said it can’t be shared outside without the company’s approval

There are so many drawings everywhere these days; let that person post one. I’m too lazy to post them myself. When looking at a drawing, start by checking the first page – if you understand that page, you’ve understood half of the drawing. Remember all the legends on the first page, otherwise it will be very difficult

There’s no need to rush; first take a brief look at all the process instructions to get an idea of what’s involved. Then, go through the instructions while referring to the drawings – after reading them several times, you’ll understand it naturally.

It’s best to first understand the process block diagram, and then examine it in sections. Once you understand the overall direction of material flow, it becomes much easier to look at the details.

1. Refer to the process specifications. 2. Classify by materials. 3. Start with the main processes and then the auxiliary ones. By considering these three points while looking at the information, it should be possible to understand it.

Check the legend! Read the diagram based on the layout of the material pipes in the process!

First, look at the main logistics – which devices are involved and what controls are needed; ignore the secondary aspects for now
