Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If solar power generation simulation is performed to provide accurate installation recommendations, then purchasing decision accuracy is improved, but system complexity increases due to requiring window transmission loss rate data and server processing
Solution Approach 1:
A server acts as an intermediary between the user's electronic device and the solar power generation simulation system. The server receives window transmission loss rate information and other data from the user device, performs the simulation calculations, and returns recommended placement areas and solar power generation effects. This intermediary approach allows complex processing to be centralized while keeping the user device relatively simple.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary actions by obtaining window transmission loss rate information and other relevant data before the user makes a purchasing decision. The simulation is conducted in advance to provide accurate solar power generation effect predictions and recommended placement areas, enabling users to make informed decisions before buying solar-powered devices.
2Measurement precision
If detailed window transmission loss rate information is collected to improve simulation accuracy, then solar power generation effect prediction accuracy is improved, but information collection difficulty increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables self-service by allowing users to input window transmission loss rate information through a user interface on their own electronic devices. The system automatically processes this input data, performs the simulation, and generates results without requiring manual measurement or external assistance. This approach simplifies information collection while maintaining high prediction accuracy.
