Industrial architects approach the use of digital twins in building energy-efficient industrial pumping systems for chemical storage facilities in their designs by following these steps:
1. Gathering data: Architects start by gathering data on the chemical storage facility, including information on the equipment, piping systems, and energy consumption.
2. Creating a digital twin: Once the data is collected, architects create a digital twin of the facility using specialized software. This digital twin is a virtual replica of the facility that can be used to test and optimize new designs.
3. Simulating performance: Architects then use the digital twin to simulate the performance of the industrial pumping systems based on various design options. This simulation can help identify the most efficient pumping system for the facility.
4. Optimizing energy use: Based on the simulation results, architects can optimize the energy use of the industrial pumping systems. This can involve making adjustments to the equipment or piping systems to reduce energy consumption.
5. Implementing the design: Once the design is optimized, architects can implement it in the facility. The digital twin can continue to be used to monitor the performance of the pumping system and identify any areas for improvement.
By using digital twins, architects can design energy-efficient industrial pumping systems that reduce energy consumption and operating costs while maintaining the necessary functionality and safety requirements of the chemical storage facility.
