As you know, in production, for the structuring of processes, a technological scheme is used, which is characterized by some physical parameters. In the process of solving problems in production, in practice, it is necessary to make changes in parameter values. For these purposes, as well as for regulating processes, complex automatic control systems are used. For their analysis, a functional diagram is compiled .
What does this term mean?
This phrase means a visual expression of the connections between some elements of an object.
In other words, this is an explanatory drawing of the product or installation, depicting certain types of processes that occur in blocks or circuits of the device.
We can say that a document that graphically presents the appearance of a product model is a functional diagram. This phrase also implies the meaning of explication. Using this explanatory material allows you to reflect the changes that occur in the device and control any microcircuit.
The functional diagram is also called logical or structural, since this document can determine the formula for the operation of the elements of the device. However, this type of visual systematization does not have any special signs and designations. Therefore, to create such a drawing, various symbols and indications from electrical, algorithmic and kinematic names can be used. A combination of such characters may also be used.
Principles of Compilation
Functional diagram can be performed taking into account such moments:
- Identify the main elements of the system that perform a specific purpose.
- Highlight the main principles of the device.
- Determine what is OR - an object of regulation, controlled quantity, inducing and establishing impact.
- Designate the functional unit, which is the actuator - DUT.
- Determine which element plays the role of a sensor and a link that defines the motion.
- To bring all the blocks into one structure, while indicating the relationships and functions that they perform. Each element must be signed, the direction of movement is indicated by arrows.
Additional Information
The functional diagram of the network of local connection of computers is performed using data from the organizational chart, which indicates the number of computers, to whom they will belong, and so on.
Also for this it is necessary to highlight what responsibilities will be fulfilled on this or that equipment, what purpose this or that workplace will have.
The functional diagram is carried out in accordance with the ESKD rules. Segments of the local network are made out in separate blocks, the connections between them are shown using arrows. The organization diagram of the equipment and the visual representation of the information flows together form a functional diagram. It is important to note that the preparation of this document should be carried out by specialists who carry out the installation of the network.
