How to Change the Measurement Units and Drawing Scale

ConceptDraw DIAGRAM enables choosing the most suitable scale and units of measurement with just one click.
There are different units of measurement that can be used for length dimensions. When making scaled drawing we can't keep in mind just meters, centimeters, and millimeters; we also need to remember about yards, feet, and inches. This is because the United States applies its own system of measurement units, while the rest of the world employs metric measurement units. This article explains how you can change the scale and measurement units in a ConceptDraw DIAGRAM drawing.

How to Create a Plant Layout Design

How to Create a Plant Layout Design
A plant construction process begins from a plant layout stage - an engineering stage used to design, analyze and finally choose the suitable configurations for a manufacturing plant. Plant Layout issues are core to any enterprise and are challenged in all types of the manufacturing process. The sufficiency of layout influences the efficiency of subsequent operations.
It is an important background for efficient manufacturing and also has a great deal with many questions. Once the place of the plant has been determined, the next important task before the management of the plant is to plan appropriate layout for the enterprise.
Plant layout is used to create the most effective physical arrangement of machinery and equipment, with the plant building in such a manner so as to make quickest and cheapest way from raw material to the shipment of the completed product
Making a plan that shows the location of industrial equipment involves many different elements that can be managed using Con

Create Floor Plans Easily with ConceptDraw DIAGRAM

There are two basic ways of creating a floor plan: hiring an interior designer or designing on one’s own. Professional help can be quite expensive, and the result may not always be worth the money. Let’s take a look at what skills are needed to create the interior design on your own.
Primarily, this basic knowledge of the composition rules. It helps to compose, to place the shapes and volume of the interior, to achieve balance in the room between the free space and objects. This might help to compose correctly, to place the shapes and the volumes in the interior, to achieve balance between free space and furniture in the room.
Basic color theory. There are strictly defined rules and laws, which are used to select a fitting color combinations to create a harmonious interior.

How to Resize Objects

When creating a diagram using ConceptDraw DIAGRAM, you can select, move, resize and rotate objects. After selecting an object (or objects) in a document, you can change its position, resize it or move an object to the desired position. The sizes of objects in the ConceptDraw DIAGRAM can be changed by simply dragging, or you can set a particular size of an object. Using ConceptDraw DIAGRAM, you can re-size an object on the page using the absolute measurements instead of a mouse. You can make quick work of designing complex drawing using a combination of different-sized items.

Ice Hockey Rink Dimensions

Meeting ice hockey rules one should learn ice hockey rink terms, lines, zones etc. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is an advanced drawing software that allows you produce ice hockey rink depiction of any complexity, from simple sketch drawing to detailed one as on example below.
The vector stencils library "Thermo" contains 14 symbols of thermoelectric elements: thermal element, thermocouples with and without heating elements, thermoplile.
Use it for drawing electrical layouts, electronic schematics, and circuit diagrams.
"The thermoelectric effect is the direct conversion of temperature differences to electric voltage and vice versa. A thermoelectric device creates voltage when there is a different temperature on each side. Conversely, when a voltage is applied to it, it creates a temperature difference. At the atomic scale, an applied temperature gradient causes charge carriers in the material to diffuse from the hot side to the cold side.
This effect can be used to generate electricity, measure temperature or change the temperature of objects. Because the direction of heating and cooling is determined by the polarity of the applied voltage, thermoelectric devices can be used as temperature controllers.
The term "thermoelectric effect" encompasses three separately identified effects: the Seebeck effect, Peltier effect, and Thomson effect. Textbooks may refer to it as the Peltier–Seebeck effect. ...
Thermocouples and thermopiles are devices that use the Seebeck effect to measure the temperature difference between two objects, one connected to a voltmeter and the other to the probe. The temperature of the voltmeter, and hence that of the material being measured by the probe, can be measured separately using cold junction compensation techniques." [Thermoelectric effect. Wikipedia]
The shapes example "Design elements - Thermo" was drawn using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the Electrical Engineering solution from the Engineering area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.
