Integration design platform of the CFETR

An integration design platform is built for the CFETR design. By a project lifecycle management (PLM) system, the platform could provide the function to coordinate the progress among different task groups distributed in China. The PLM system manages many kinds of documents, like the project description and scientific target, the sub-system requirement, design reports and critical data; and distributes them to corresponding users in time. Two systems complementary to PLM system are developed: (1) an engineering CAD/CAE design management, builds a link between the PLM system and the detailed designs, it receives general tasks from the PLM system and assigns them to designers, then returns detailed report and data to the PLM; (2) a integrated design framework to provide the environment for detailed design work, two sub-framework for physical and engineering design are integrated via a unified graphic user interface. Furthermore, the platform is built based on an advanced GPU-based design cloud system, which provides a remote design environment for widely distributed working forces, and meanwhile keeps the data centralized management. The integration design platform is still under development to support the system engineering for CFETR.
