Computer-aided web-based application to modular plant design

摘要

In order to support the design activities as well as the reusability of available examined solutions in developing new technical projects in the field of modular plant design, a web-based application for quality- and know-how assurance, Reuse-Atlas, was developed. Using exemplary designed modules, aspects of a quality- and know-how assurance as well as the reusability of the engineering data was implemented and transferred to Reuse-Atlas. The Reuse-Atlas includes structures for the modules of different plant complexity like structural group- and plant group-modules. It allows more efficiency by tracking of undertaken decisions and assumptions during the module development and design and therefore simplicity in designing the new plants and modifying the old ones.
