FROM FRONT-END TO FINAL TESTING: DETAILED HEAT TRACING FROM PLANT 3-D MODELS 

Abstract - The development of detailed engineering deliverables on large refinery and petrochemical projects is an activity requiring extensive effort, particularly for electrical heat tracing (EHT). In the past, EHT systems have required an intensive effort involving manually selecting correct heat tracing and accessories, as well as presentations of the heat trace design data and layouts based on piping isometrics.
