Lab Tools

This page contains some helpful tools for students working in the PM&C lab as well as some general tools for chemical engineers.

Periodic table

An HTML periodic table for chemical engineers. This program is included with the Perry compact disk.

Visio symbols

Most people use Microsoft Visio to create P&IDs. Visio already has a basic process engineering stencil for P&IDs. You can get a set of ISA symbols for Actuators, Flow Devices, Time Logic, Lines, Instuments and PLCs as well as general control stuff here. These can be combined into one stencil or even with the existing Visio stencils. Just put them in your C:\Documents and Settings\User\My Documents\My Shapes folder (if you have Visio 2003).

Unit conversion

A handy unit conversion tool for chemical engineers. No installation needed. This program is included with the Perry compact disk.
