Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If real-time monitoring and adjustment of pressure regulation parameters and cooling parameters is implemented, then coordinated control between pressure regulation device and cold energy recovery device is achieved, but device complexity and system infrastructure requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple monitoring functions (pressure, temperature) and control functions into an integrated IoT platform. The government safety supervision management platform merges data collection, analysis, and control instruction generation, while the gas company management platform integrates pressure regulation and cold energy recovery device control. This merging reduces overall system complexity despite adding real-time capabilities.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces sensing devices as intermediaries between the physical equipment and the control systems. These sensors act as mediators that convert physical parameters (pressure, temperature) into data that can be processed by the IoT platforms. The platforms themselves serve as intermediaries between monitoring and control functions, enabling coordinated control without direct complex interconnections between devices.
2Measurement precision
If historical sensing data is collected and analyzed to generate adjustment instructions, then parameter adjustment accuracy is improved, but information processing time and computational resources increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary actions by continuously collecting and pre-processing historical sensing data during normal operation. The system maintains ready-to-use historical data sets that can be quickly referenced when adjustment instructions are needed. This pre-processing approach allows for accurate parameter adjustment without significant time delays when actual control decisions are required.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces complex manual analysis and mechanical decision-making processes with automated data processing algorithms. The IoT platforms use computational methods to analyze historical sensing data and generate control instructions automatically, substituting human analysis time with faster machine processing while maintaining or improving accuracy.
3Reliability
If multiple platforms (government safety supervision and gas company) are integrated into the IoT system, then safety supervision and coordinated control capabilities are enhanced, but system complexity and communication requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the safety supervision system into distinct functional platforms: the government safety supervision management platform for regulatory oversight and the gas company management platform for operational control. Each platform has specific responsibilities and interfaces with the IoT system accordingly. This segmentation allows complex safety supervision functions to be distributed across manageable modules with clearly defined interfaces.
Solution Approach 2:
The IoT system is designed with universal communication protocols and data standards that enable multiple platforms to interact through common interfaces. The sensing devices and management platforms are built to handle multiple functions (monitoring, analysis, control) through standardized mechanisms, reducing the complexity that would otherwise arise from platform-specific custom integrations.
