According to people's understanding of the development process of things:
White box model:
Refers to those models with clear internal laws. Such as mechanics, heat, electricity and related engineering and technical problems.
Grey box model:
It refers to those problems whose internal laws are not very clear, and there is still a lot of work to be done to establish and improve the model in different degrees. Such as meteorology and ecological economics.
Black box model:
Refers to some phenomena whose internal laws are still unknown. Such as life science and social science. However, due to many influencing factors and complicated relationships, it can also be simplified as a grey box model to study.
