Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If glycerol and propylene glycol are used as main atomizing agents, then smoke production is achieved, but viscosity and boiling point increase leading to high power consumption and carbonization
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the chemical composition parameters of the atomizing agent by replacing traditional glycerol and propylene glycol with water-based formulations containing specific additives, thereby lowering the boiling point and viscosity while maintaining smoke generation capability
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses composite materials by combining water with specific additives and flavorings to create a new type of atomizing agent that achieves the desired balance between smoke production and thermal properties, avoiding the high boiling point of traditional components
2Quantity of substance
If glycerol and propylene glycol are used as main atomizing agents, then smoke production is achieved, but viscosity increases leading to high power consumption
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the viscosity parameter of the atomizing agent through water-based formulation, reducing the energy required for atomization and lowering power consumption while maintaining adequate smoke production
3Quantity of substance
If glycerol and propylene glycol are used as main atomizing agents, then atomization is achieved, but harmful compounds are produced at high temperatures
Solution Approach 1:
The patent lowers the atomization temperature parameter by using water-based formulations with lower boiling points, thereby avoiding the formation of harmful alcohol and ketone compounds that occur at temperatures above 200°C
Solution Approach 2:
The patent extracts and eliminates propylene glycol from the formulation, replacing it with water-based components that do not produce harmful compounds when atomized, thereby removing the source of the harmful effects
4Temperature
If water content is increased to reduce viscosity and boiling point, then safety and taste are improved, but atomization amount is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses composite materials by combining water with specific additives that enhance atomization efficiency, allowing high water content formulations to maintain adequate smoke production while achieving lower boiling points and improved safety
Solution Approach 2:
The patent optimizes the concentration parameters of additives in water-based formulations to achieve the right balance between lowering boiling point through increased water content and maintaining sufficient atomization amount through additive enhancement
