By utilizing AI automatic design system (cf. article (7)), it is possible to design route of piping, air conditioning duct and cable tray in the 3D-CAD, which models actual NPP. Thus, the system automatically designs multiple routes which are main and branch lines from equipment to equipment or from room to room. The previous layout design needs to spend huge time and human resources, on the other hand, its new system enables to shorten engineering schedule and reduce engineering cost, drastically. As to system development phase at present, it is possible to suggest shortest routes which quantities of long items are minimum, as well as satisfying with basic layout rules. In the conference, we report the application result of AI automatic design system for actual NPP by showing several examples.
