Flow Sheets

This document discusses different types of flowsheets used in plant design including block flowsheets, process flowsheets (PFD), process and instrumentation diagrams (P&ID), and utility flow sheets (UFD). It provides details on the purpose and information typically included in PFDs such as equipment sizes, temperatures, pressures, flow rates, and mass balances. Checklists are also included listing the specific data normally shown for various equipment on a PFD. P&IDs are described as including line sizes, instrument specifications, and material codes in accordance with various process industry standards.

Flow Sheeting
• A plant design consists of words, numbers, and
pictures.
• Description of processes based on sketches of
equipment, flows and operating conditions.
• Types
– Block Flowsheets/Pictorial Flowsheets
– Process Flowsheets (PFD)
– Process and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&ID)
– Utility Flow Sheets (UFD)
– Layout

Block Flowsheets
• Early stage or to provide an overview of a
complex process/plant
• Rectangular-Square-circular blocks or with
some common basic pictures
• Sometimes block flowsheet also represents
flow rates

Process Flowsheet (PFD)
• Process flowsheet develop after material and energy
balances and includes the size of the major
equipment
• Include all vessels
• Numerical data include: flow quantities, composition,
pressures, temperatures etc.
• Major instruments essential for process control
• Data also include that flowsheet is understandable
without reference to other document
• In the early stages of plant design, PFD is drawn first
and is the only diagram available that represents the
process.

PFD Checklist-I
• Process lines, but including only those bypasses
essential to an understanding of the process
• All process equipment. Spares are indicated by letter
symbols or notes
• Major instrumentation essential to process control and
to understanding of the flowsheet
• Valves essential to an understanding of the flowsheet .
Design basis, including stream factor
• Temperatures, pressures, flow quantities
• Mass and/or mol balance, showing compositions,
amounts, and other properties of the principal streams
• Utilities requirements summary

PFD Check List-II
• Data included for particular equipment
– Compressors: SCFM (60°F, 14.7 psia);ΔP psi; HHP; number of
stages; details of stages if important
– Drives: type; connected HP; utilities such as kW, lb steam/hr,or
Btu/hr
– Drums and tanks: ID or OD, seam to seam length, important
internals
– Exchangers: Sqft, kBtu/hr, temperatures, and flow quantities in
and out; shell side and tube side indicated
– Furnaces: kBtu/hr, temperatures in and out, fuel
– Pumps: GPM (60°F),ΔP psi, HHP, type, drive
– Towers: Number and type of plates or height and type of
packing identification of all plates at which streams enter or
leave; ID or OD; seam to seam length; skirt height
– Other equipment: Sufficient data for identification of duty and
size
