Example of pipe marking through colors and symbols (arrows) to indicated pipe contents (colors) and flow direction (arrows). Pipe marking on a natural gas pipe In the process industry , chemical industry , manufacturing industry , and other commercial and industrial contexts, pipe marking is used to identify the contents, properties and flow ...
A process flow diagram (PFD) is a diagram commonly used in chemical and process engineering to indicate the general flow of plant processes and equipment. The PFD displays the relationship between major equipment of a plant facility and does not show minor details such as piping details and designations.
The in-line components, known as fittings, [3] valves, and other devices, typically sense and control the pressure, flow rate and temperature of the transmitted fluid, and usually are included in the field of piping design (or piping engineering), though the sensors and automatic controlling devices may alternatively be treated as part of ...
The schematic is a line diagram, not necessarily to scale, that describes interconnection of components in a system. The main features of a schematic drawing show: A two dimensional layout with divisions that show distribution of the system between building levels, or an isometric-style layout that shows distribution of systems across ...
