2. Process flow diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_flow_diagram

   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. Another commonly used term for a PFD is ...

3. Flowchart - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flowchart

   A simple flowchart representing a process for dealing with a non-functioning lamp. A flowchart is a type of diagram that represents a workflow or process. A flowchart can also be defined as a diagrammatic representation of an algorithm, a step-by-step approach to solving a task. The flowchart shows the steps as boxes of various kinds, and their ...

4. Flow process chart - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_process_chart

   The first structured method for documenting process flow, e.g., in flow shop scheduling, the flow process chart, was introduced by Frank and Lillian Gilbreth to members of ASME in 1921 as the presentation "Process Charts, First Steps in Finding the One Best Way to Do Work". [2] The Gilbreths' tools quickly found their way into industrial ...

5. Data-flow diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data-flow_diagram

   A data-flow diagram is a way of representing a flow of data through a process or a system (usually an information system). The DFD also provides information about the outputs and inputs of each entity and the process itself. A data-flow diagram has no control flow — there are no decision rules and no loops. Specific operations based on the ...

6. Functional flow block diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_flow_block_diagram

   A functional flow block diagram (FFBD) is a multi-tier, time-sequenced, step-by-step flow diagram of a system 's functional flow. [2] The term "functional" in this context is different from its use in functional programming or in mathematics, where pairing "functional" with "flow" would be ambiguous. Here, "functional flow" pertains to the ...

7. Piping and instrumentation diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piping_and_instrumentation...

   A piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID) is defined as follows: A diagram which shows the interconnection of process equipment and the instrumentation used to control the process. In the process industry, a standard set of symbols is used to prepare drawings of processes. The instrument symbols used in these drawings are generally based on ...

8. Process design - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_design

   Process flow diagrams (PFD): Typically more complex diagrams of major unit operations as well as flow lines. They usually include a material balance, and sometimes an energy balance, showing typical or design flowrates, stream compositions, and stream and equipment pressures and temperatures. It is the key document in process design. [1]

9. Business process mapping - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_process_mapping

   Business process mapping takes a specific objective and helps to measure and compare that objective alongside the entire organization's objectives to make sure that all processes are aligned with the company's values and capabilities. International Organization for Standardization or ISO 9001 : 2015 encourages a process approach to quality ...
