2. Process flow diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_flow_diagram

   A process flow diagram ( PFD) is a diagram commonly used in chemical and process engineering to indicate the general flow of plant processes and equipment. The PFD displays the relationship between major equipment of a plant facility and does not show minor details such as piping details and designations. Another commonly used term for a PFD is ...

3. Flow process chart - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_process_chart

   The first structured method for documenting process flow, e.g., in flow shop scheduling, the flow process chart, was introduced by Frank and Lillian Gilbreth to members of ASME in 1921 as the presentation "Process Charts, First Steps in Finding the One Best Way to Do Work". [2] The Gilbreths' tools quickly found their way into industrial ...

4. Functional flow block diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_flow_block_diagram

   A functional flow block diagram ( FFBD) is a multi-tier, time-sequenced, step-by-step flow diagram of a system 's functional flow. [2] The term "functional" in this context is different from its use in functional programming or in mathematics, where pairing "functional" with "flow" would be ambiguous. Here, "functional flow" pertains to the ...

5. Flowchart - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flowchart

   A flowchart is a type of diagram that represents a workflow or process. A flowchart can also be defined as a diagrammatic representation of an algorithm, a step-by-step approach to solving a task. The flowchart shows the steps as boxes of various kinds, and their order by connecting the boxes with arrows.

6. Process engineering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_engineering

   Process engineering is the understanding and application of the fundamental principles and laws of nature that allow humans to transform raw material and energy into products that are useful to society, at an industrial level. [1] By taking advantage of the driving forces of nature such as pressure, temperature and concentration gradients, as ...

7. Engineering design process - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_design_process

   The engineering design process, also known as the engineering method, is a common series of steps that engineers use in creating functional products and processes. The process is highly iterative – parts of the process often need to be repeated many times before another can be entered – though the part(s) that get iterated and the number of such cycles in any given project may vary.
