14.5.4 Combined Process and Piping Flowsheet or Diagram
This is used to serve the same purpose of both the process and piping flowsheets (Figures 14.9 and 14.10). This necessarily results in a drawing with considerably more detail than either of types 2 and 3 just discussed. However, the advantage is in concentrating the complete data and information for a project at one point. It does require close attention in proper reading and often opens data to larger groups of persons who might misinterpret or misuse it.
Some companies do not allow the use of this sheet in their work primarily because of the confidential nature of some of the process data. Where it is used, it presents a concise summary of the complete process and key mechanical data for assembly. This type of sheet requires more time for complete preparation, but like all engineering developments preliminary issues are made as information is available. Often the sheet is not complete until the piping and other detailed drawings are finished. This then is an excellent record of the process as well as a worksheet for training operators of the plant.
14.5.5 Utility Flowsheets or Diagrams (ULDs)
Utility line diagram (ULD) includes hardware details of the steam, water piping and control systems (Figures 14.11 and 14.12). Used to summarize and detail the interrelationship of utilities such as air, water (various types), steam (various types), heat transfer mediums such as Dowtherm, process vents and purges, safety relief blow-down, etc., to the basic process. The amount of detail is often too great to combine on other sheets, so separate sheets are prepared. These are quite valuable and time saving during the engineering of the project. They also identify the exact flow direction and sequence of tie-in relationships for the operating and maintenance personnel. The distribution of a utility such as steam is by a common distribution pipe, with each unit requiring the utility drawing its supply from that pipe. When a unit has taken its requirement, the utility distribution pipe can then be reduced in size as it continues to the next unit requiring the utility. The order of servicing units is affected by layout, and utility line sizes are affected by the order.

14.5.6 Special Flowsheets or Diagrams
From the basic process containing flowsheet, other engineering specialties develop their own details. For example, the instrument engineer often takes the requirements of the process and prepares a completely detailed flowsheet which defines every action of the instruments, control valves, switches, alarm horns, signal lights, etc. This is his/her detailed working tool.
The electrical engineer likewise takes basic process and plant layout requirements and translates them into details for the entire electrical performance of the plant. This will include the electrical requirements of the instrumentation in many cases, but if not, they must be coordinated. O’Donnell [10] has described the engineering aspects of these special flowsheets.
14.5.7 Special or Supplemental Aids
Plot Plans
Plot plans are necessary for the proper development of a final and finished process, piping or utility flowsheet (Figure 14.13). After broad or overall layout decisions are made, the detailed layout of each processing area is not only helpful but necessary in determining the first realistic estimate of the routing, lengths and sequence of piping. This is important in such specifications as pipe sizing, and pump head and compressor discharge pressures. The nature of the fluids—whether hazardous, toxic, etc.—as well as the direction or location or availability for entrance to the area, definitely influences decisions regarding the equipment layout on the ground, in the structures, and in relation to buildings. Prevailing wind direction and any other unusual conditions should also be considered.
14.6 Flowsheet Presentation
Experienced flowsheet layout personnel all emphasize the importance of breaking processes into systems and logical parts of systems such as reaction, compression, separating, finishing, refrigeration, storage, etc., for detailed drafting. This point cannot be overemphasized, since considerably more space is needed for final completion of all details than is usually visualized at first. The initial layout of the key equipment should be spread farther than looks good to the eye. In fact, it probably looks wasteful of drawing space.
Later as process and sometimes service lines, valves, controls and miscellaneous small accessories are added this “extra” space will be needed to maintain an easily readable sheet. As this develops, attention should be given to the relative weights and styles of lines to aid in the readability of the sheets.
