Designers can use Smart P&ID Design Validation to compare the Smart P&ID model with the corresponding PDMS model and ISO model at different data levels.
-
Configuring - Define the data mapping, design correlation, and design comparison.
-
Importing - Import the Smart P&ID and PDMS design data or ISO model data into Smart P&ID Design Validation. This ensures proper mapping and filtering of the native data through predefined mapping definitions.
-
Comparing - After the data is imported, corresponding items at different levels are correlated automatically using the pre-defined correlation definition. This step of auto-correlation provides a visual link of the corresponding elements. This link allows you to navigate and visually verify the data about the corresponding design items. After the auto-correlation, you can compare the attributes and topology of the design data using a hierarchical and graphical view.
The last part of the comparison requires that you resolve any inconsistencies in the design items using respective correlation command to resolve the inconsistency. Identify inconsistent design elements, and add resolution comments. Compile the comments and send them to the respective designer for resolution. -
Reporting - Generate reports of approvals made during the design validation.
The example below illustrates how the Smart P&ID Design Validation can be used for validating 2D and 3D data.
