Basic function

Basic function is a useful function directed toward a target component of the analyzed engineering system.

Overview

The basic function is one of the three types of functions (alongside additional and auxiliary) that can be performed by components of an engineeiring system that is a device. As a function directed at the target component, it holds the highest value in the function ranking (usually 3 points).

The basic function should not be confused with the main function. The target component is the object of both, but their carriers are significantly different. The basic function is performed by a component of the system, whereas the main function is performed by the system as a whole.
