[0009] As a further description of the above technical solutions: In step 6), the parameter correction uses a Kalman filter algorithm, the dynamic characteristic parameters in the device digital model are updated through the residual error of the effect data and the twin simulation results, so that the simulation error of the digital twin is controlled within 5%.
