Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate solar water heating systems (SWHS) from the systems engineering perspective and estimate the prospects of implementation of SWHS in Kazakhstan. Under the scope of the current study, the interviews with the specialists of the field were conducted in order to identify the possible requirements for the system, and its technical functions as well as to find out the current situation of SWHS, which has been already installed on the territory of Astana, Kazakhstan. Based on the interview results and literature review, a House of Quality (HoQ) for solar heating water systems was developed. In addition, the geographical assessment of Kazakhstan territory in terms of sunny days, and the availability of system components were discussed in this paper.
