Abstract

Three-dimensional digital technology has been applied in substation design and construction which improved the designing efficiency and increased the degree of visualization for engineering construction in China. However, the application of 3D design software mainly solved the design problem at a certain stage. But, no more attention is paid to the full life cycle by three-dimensional technology, and there were fewer studies and applications on the full life cycle management platform. This paper is based on a literature review about 3D applications in the substation engineering field and mainstream 3D design software. Compare existing substation 3D design platforms and analyze their strengths and weaknesses in terms of functionality and professionalism. Other than this, the three-dimensional design software is evaluated and analyzed by the gray comprehensive evaluation method. Each software solution is calculated according to the weights and values of six indicators, to obtain the optimal solution. Combined with the optimal solution and the actual management requirements of the substation, the functional modules, and platform architecture of the substation digital 3D management platform based on the whole process management are explored to provide a basic framework for the specific design and implementation of the platform in the future.
