Detailed design (development phase milestone "2" to milestone "3")
Designing water fluid circuits

This detailed design (or development, or project) phase is aimed at preparing contracts, which involves :

• design and performance validation and demonstration;

• to have frozen physical, functional and organizational interfaces;

• to have fixed the normative and technical frame of reference;

• prior validation of contract content with regard to the responsibilities entrusted to manufacturers and their capabilities (technical, cost, lead times, etc.).

Fluid system studies evolve with an ever more precise level of detail to freeze the need and choices of associated options, as well as the list and content of contracts. This process is broken down into five macrotasks between milestone 'A′ and milestone 'F′:...
