V5 to 3DEXPERIENCE Data Import Table
The following table describes import correspondences between V5 file-based data and 3DEXPERIENCE content.
The statuses for import results fully import, partially import, and not import (-).
| V5 Data Type | 3DEXPERIENCE Content Type | Import Result | |
|---|---|---|---|
| HVAC Part Data | |||
| HVAC Part | In New Typing mode, there is a preference to select the HVAC part type. The part type can be a miscellaneous part or a dedicated HVAC part type if you specify properly the Part Subtype table. |
Following the Preferences selection, it can be either a miscellaneous part or a dedicated HVAC part type according to the Part Subtype table content. For more information, see Me | |
| Part Geometry Data | |||
| Associated CATShapes | - | - | |
| Part Attribute Data | |||
| HVAC system attributes | HVAC system attributes | Partially imported Standard, Sub Part Type, Height, Width, Equivalent Diameter, Round Corner Radius, End Style, Diameter, Insulation Type, and Insulation Thickness import. All other system attributes import using business rules. | |
| User-defined attributes | User-defined attributes | Fully imported Imported using business rules | |
| Part Port Data | |||
| HVAC Part Connectors | HVAC Part Connectors | Fully imported Migrated to Ports and appropriate connector geometry creates and links. Connector geometry converts to an axis system. Its position, alignment, and orientation depend on the associated geometric elements. | |
| Insulation Data | |||
| Insulation object | HVAC insulation | Fully Imported | |
| MultiDiscipline Insulation Object on HVAC Part/Rigid Duct. | HVAC insulation | New engineering connection of the type Rigid Connections create if the insulation is on the HVAC Part. | |
| HVAC Route Data | |||
| Rigid ducts | Partially imported Instances and references import. Instance application attributes do not import. | |
| Flexible Ducts | Flexible ducts | Partially import. Geometry imports. No technological attributes or connectivity information imports. | |
| User Defined Attributes | |||
| User-defined attributes | User-defined attributes | imported using business rules | |
| Run, Path reservation, and Item Reservation Objects | |||
| Run objects | Rigid route or 3D part with representation containing a solid with the V5 shape | Partially or fully imported The import of run objects depends on the chosen options in :
| |
| Path Reservation | Rigid route or 3D part with representation containing a solid with the V5 shape | Partially or fully imported The behavior is the same as Run objects | |
| Item reservation | Rigid route or 3D part with representation containing a solid with the V5 shape | Partially or fully imported The behavior is the same as Run objects | |
V5 to 3DEXPERIENCE Data Import Table: Connections
The following table describes import correspondences between V5 file-based data and 3DEXPERIENCE content.
| V5 Data Type | 3DEXPERIENCE Content Type | Import Result |
|---|---|---|
| Two HVAC part instances connected by fluidic connection and having 3 constraints 1 Fix and 2 Coincidence. | Engineering connections | New engineering connection of type Rigid is created
between the axis systems. Note:
To determine which is driving constraint and which is
driven constraint the following order is used:
|
| Duct connected to part through run. | Contextual design | Route creates from the external reference of the axis system of the part at the junction. |
| Duct creates as branch from another duct. | Contextual design | Duct creates as branch duct that is, created through the external reference of the duct branch port. |
V5 to 3DEXPERIENCE Data Import Table: Spools
The following table describes import correspondences between V5 file-based data and 3DEXPERIENCE content.
| V5 Data Type | 3DEXPERIENCE Content Type | Import Result |
|---|---|---|
| Spool object | Spool product | Fully imported |
| Objects contained in the spool with a link. | Objects import in compliance with their own import rules. | Objects contained in the spool in Preliminary Mode. The object becomes a product and is an entered reference because the discipline is HVAC_spool. |
Considerations
Take the following considerations into account:
- Importing in Replace Mode
-
The table below lists HVAC data that is updated when imported using FBDI in Replace mode.
Data Update Status HVAC Parts Updated Heavy Ducts Straight Duct, Bendable Pipe
Light Ducts Note: FBDI in Replace mode is not supported by HVAC Lines.The table below lists Equipment and Hanger data that is updated/when imported using FBDI in Replace mode.
Data Update Status Equipment Parts Updated Hanger Parts Nozzles Important: You can import a V5 file into 3DEXPERIENCE by using File-based Design Import (FBDI). Now, if you import the same file again into 3DEXPERIENCE, this file replaces the previous. For more information, see File Coexistence and Migration User's Guide. - Modify Attribute Data
- The table below shows the FBDI (in Replace mode) result when
attributes on a V5 HVAC part are modified.
Part, Attribute, and Port data Result System attributes Updated Port geometry Points to axis system Port attributes Updated Unmapped system and user attributes Imported using business rules assigned to PLM Opening PLMEnsFBDIUserAttribute If HVAC subtype names modify, the corresponding 3DEXPERIENCE subtype names update; but the discipline (for example HVAC_Part, HVAC_Rigid_Duct etc.) remains the same.
V5 Data Type HVAC Type and Subtypes
3DEXPERIENCE Content Type Mapped Type and Subtypes
Import Result Subclass of HVAC Part NLS name of the class Type If you modify the geometry of an HVAC part in V5 and then import the part again into 3DEXPERIENCE, the latest V5 geometry gets imported.
If equipment/hanger and support type names modify, the corresponding 3DEXPERIENCE subtype names update, but the discipline remains the same.
V5 3DEXPERIENCE Equipment/Hanger Support type and Subtypes Mapped Subtypes Equipment NLS name of the class Type Support Part NLS name of the class Type Note: If V5 Equipment parts having HVAC part connectors, these migrate to 3DEXPERIENCE HVAC Ports. - Add, Remove, and Modify a Connector
- The table below shows the FBDI (in Replace Mode) result when
a connector is added, removed, or modified on a V5 HVAC part.
If connector names modify, the corresponding 3DEXPERIENCE port names modify but the discipline (HVAC_Port) remains the same.Part, Attribute, and Port data Result System attributes Updated Existing Port geometry Point to axis system Port attributes Updated New Connector Migrated to Port and appropriate connector geometry creates and links. Connector geometry points to the axis system. Removed Connector Corresponding port removes.
