Function Innovation Design Model and its Application in Heating Equipment

Abstract:

Function design is an important step in the process of product design. This article mainly focuses on process and realization of product function innovation. Function innovation and forecasting method is presented, and the product function innovation process model is proposed. Finally, the heating equipment is taken as an example to validate the effectiveness of the model.
