CAD in process plant engineering
نویسنده
چکیده
Developing CAD systems for the design and layout of process plant involves an investment of millions of pounds. Today the proven benefit of using such systems is apparent, but without commitment and foresight from software developers such tools may never be seen in the market. One such product, PDMS, was a joint development between CADCentre, Isopipe and Akzo Engineering, started in 1974 and first sold in 1977. Since then many thousands of man-hours have gone into developing the system.

A knowledge-based reverse engineering process for CAD models management
The paper presents a knowledge-based reverse engineering approach to identify several parametric CAD models from point clouds and manage the relationships between the CAD models. This knowledge intensive process enables designer interaction to capture design intents and to integrate digital data from previous product in a new product lifecycle. The obtained parametric CAD models are easy to cha...

متن کاملImproving Virtual Reality Applications in CAD through Semantics
—In this article we propose an architecture for the inclusion and exploitation of semantic aspects in a CAD environment. Our schema focuses on the enhancement and improvement of a commercial (general purpose) CAD system on its Virtual Reality (VR) capabilities. There is a need in combining CAD and semantics in the new generation of computer assisted engineering systems. Usually semantic aspects...
متن کاملCAD-Based Photogrammetry for Reverse Engineering of Industrial Installations
When designing an industrial installation, construction engineers often make use of a library of standardized CAD components. For instance, in the case of a servicing plant, such a library contains descriptions of simple components such as straight pipes, elbows, and T-junctions. A new installation is constructed by selecting and connecting the appropriate components from the library. This arti...

The quality of computer-aided-design (CAD) generated ‘As-built’ documentation is evaluated for a High Voltage Switchgear System (HVSS), which forms part of a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition upgrade within a geo-thermal power plant. A total of 267 CAD drawings for the HVSS were used to create a Systems Information Model (SIM) whereby the physical components and associated connections we...
