Increasing Labor Productivity in the Development of Technical Systems at the Initial Stages of Design through the Formalisation of Design Procedures

The article discusses the method of automated synthesis of technical solutions in the design of cooling systems with a liquid and gaseous working fluid at the stages of a technical proposal and a draft design. An information model of the physical principle of operation of cooling systems is presented, which contains the necessary and sufficient information to determine the functions of the structural elements of the cooling system. The formalised design procedures and information structures for building models of the physical principle of operation are described. The proposed method makes it possible to reduce the design time for cooling systems and improve the quality of design solutions by increasing the volume of processing of initial information.
