Mission Statement

The constructon and Design of process plants with its huge variety of components, pipes and instruments is highly complex. The planning and execution of such Plants, whose investment costs sometimes exceed the billion Euro limit, is performed by interdisciplinary teams.Thus the key aim of this module is to learn the the main activities of process plant projects. This comprises intelligent 3D-CAD-Tools for flow diagrammes and detail layout. The module consists of a lecture and a practical part for the CAD-Tools.

Learning Outcomes

Knowledge Broadening
Successfull participants of this module have learned the main activities of planning and executing a process plant project. They can also handle a professional CAD-Tool for piping and instrumentation diagrammes as well as for detail layout.
The necessity of working in group will improve their communication and language skills, especially technical english.
Knowledge Deepening
Based on the fundamentals of instrumentation given in the module Physics the methods of measuring the most important process properties such as level, flow, pressure, temperature etc. are described. Furthermore typical example for process controls and steering devices are shown.
Instrumental Skills and Competences
The module consists of a lecture part and a practical part.
The practical part consists of a training with the CAD-Programme parts (AutoCAD: Plant 3D and P&ID). This knowledge is required for the subsequent module "Project", where they must use the CAD-Programme to design and develope a P&ID and a detail layout for a specific process plant section in groups.
Communicative Skills and Competences
The students improve their english, especially the specific vocabulary of plant design.
The sensitivity towards costs is increased.
Systemic Skills and Competences

Mode of Delivery

DieThe theory of plant design is coped with a lecture part.The practical part comprises a training with a professional CAD-Tool for detail layout and piping and instrumentation diagrammes
