SIMULIA Tosca Structure를 이용한 열변형력 최적화는 개발 과정에서 터보차저를 한층 더 개선하는데 결정적인 역할을 합니다. 열변형력 최적화는 일단 민감도 연구를 통해 터보차저의 뚜렷한 상보적 효과를 파악하여 긍정적 영향을 활용하고 부정적 영향을 해소하는데 유용합니다. 그리고 나서 이와 같이 전역으로 최적화된 형상을 토대로 국부적 형상 최적화를 실시하여 개선의 여지가 남아 있는 부위를 세부적으로 개선할 수 있습니다. 이와 같이 더욱 효율적인 개발 과정을 통해 성능과 수명이 향상된 배기용 터보차저를 개발할 수 있습니다. 게다가 시뮬레이션 및 최적화 기술을 지속적으로 활용하면 시험과 초기 비용을 절약할 수 있습니다.

본 연구에서는 IMT-2000방식 중 WCDMA(Wideband Code Division Multiple Access)방식의 터보코드에 대해 연구하였으며 터보 코드에 사용하는 인터리버 중 신호대 잡음비 성능이 가장 좋은 GF 인터리버와 터보 코드의 단점 중에 하나인 처리하는 동안 걸리는 지연 시간을 보완하기 위하여 핑퐁 램을 사용하였다. 핑퐁 램을 사용함으로써 최초에 소스 데이터 입력 때 만 지연이 생기고 그 이후에는 연속적으로 데이터를 출력 할 수 있는 장점을 얻었다. 그리고 C언어를 이용한 최적화된 시뮬레이션과 터보 코드의 성능평가를 통한 최적화를 실시하였다. 그리고 최적화된 정보를 바탕으로 터보코드를 VHDL언어를 이용하여 설계하고, Xilinx Vertex 1000E(XCV1000E)-PQ240칩을 이용한 테스트 보드에 다운로드 후 PCI인터페이스를 통한 시뮬레이션을 구현하였다.

IMT-2000에서는 이미 터보코드가 채널코딩 기법으로 제안되어 있으며 특별히 3GPP 규격에서는 제한길이 4인 1/3 터보코드가 채택되어 있다. 기존의 논문에서는 일반적인 터보 코드의 성능에 대한 분석이 많이 제시되어 왔으나, 3GPP 규격의 터보 복호를 위한 SOVA 복호기의 성능 파라미터 추출과 그에 따른 성능 분석 수행되지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 효율적인 구조의 3GPP SOVA 복호기를 설계하기 위해서 외부정보의 스케일링과 신뢰도 갱신길이 라는 두 가지 파라미터에 따른 SOVA 복호기의 성능을 분석하고 최적의 파라미터 값을 제시하고자 한다. 이 파라미터의 최적화를 위하여 C++를 이용한 모의실험 결과, 3GPP 규격의 (13,15) 1/3 코드에서 스케일링 값은 1/2로 신뢰도 갱신길이는 10으로 최적화 되었다.

It is well-known that the performance of turbo codes can be improved by allocating different energies per code symbol. In this paper, based on this observation, we propose a joint encoding and modulation scheme for quadrature amplitude modulated turbo code systems. In the proposed scheme, the amount of energy difference between the turbo coded symbols is optimized by optimizing the constellation of quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM). The proposed scheme offers better coding gain compared to the conventional combination of binary turbo code and QAM at the bit error rate of 10$^{-5}$. Also, the performance of binary turbo codes with the proposed QAM constellation for various code symbol mapping strategies are verified.

A turbo fan engine performance analysis program combined with a particle swarm optimization(PSO) has been developed to optimize the major design parameters of the combat aircraft gas turbine engine. The optimized parameters includes bypass ratio, fan pressure ratio, high pressure compression ratio and burner exit temperature. The objective parameters have been determined using a multi-objective function consisting of the net thrust and specific fuel consumption along a weight function. The basic model for the combat aircraft gas turbine engine has been selected as the F404 turbofan engine which is widely used in the combat aircraft, F-18 and Korean high level training aircraft, T-50. The optimal conditions of four parameters have been obtained for various design conditions.

Double-binary turbo code has been adopted as an error control code of various future communication systems including wireless metropolitan area networks(WMAN) due to its powerful error correction capability. One of the components affecting the performance of turbo code is internal interleaver. In 802.16 d/e system, an almost regular permutation(ARP) interleaver has been included as a part of specification, however it seems that the interleaver is not optimized in terms of decoding performance. In this paper, we propose three optimization methods for the interleaver based on spatial distance, spread and minimum distance between original and interleaved sequence. We find optimized interleaving parameters for each optimization method and evaluate the performances of the proposed methods by computer simulation under additive white Gaussian noise(AWGN) channel. Optimized parameters can provide up to 1.0 dB power gain over the conventional method and furthermore the obtainable gain does not require any additional hardware complexity.

An optimization study on a small turbopump impeller operating at the low specific speed is conducted to obtain high output head at the impeller exit. Its specific speed in SI unit (RPM, m3/sec, m) is 4.0, and the outer diameter is 56mm. On the optimization, the outer diameter of the impeller is maintained constant to restrict the pump size, and an objective function of pressure head is maximized with eight design variables, which are related with designing an impeller shape. The response surface method is used to the optimization scheme, and the commercial code CFX-10 is applied for numerical analysis. The pressure head of the objective function obtained with an optimized impeller is increased by 9.7% compared with that obtained on an impeller designed with typically recommended design parameters. This increment is caused by reducing the recirculation region within the impeller passage.

For design optimization, engineers should require the accurate information of design space and then explore the design space and carry out optimization. Recently, the total design framework, based on design of experiments and optimization, is widely used in industry areas to explore the design space above all. For optimizing turbofan engine design point, the response surface model is constructed by using the 7 level orthogonal array which satisfies the statistical uniformity and orthogonality and gets the dense design space information. The multi-objective genetic algorithm is used to find the optimal solution within the given constraints for finding global optimal one in response surface model. The optimal solution from response surface model is verified with GasTurb simulation result.

Electricity can be generated when the natural gas passes through a turbo-expander pressure reduction system at natural gas pressure reduction stations. Efficiency of the turbo-expander depends on the ratio of the natural gas flow rates to the design flow rate of the turbo-expander. Therefore, the optimal conditions for the operation of the pressure reduction system can be determined by controlling the natural gas flow rates. In this study, we have calculated the electric energy generation depending on the natural gas flow rates at the two low-pressure reduction stations when the pressure of the natural gas is reduced from 17.5 bar to 8.5 bar and have found the optimal conditions for the turbo-expander pressure reduction system through the comparison with the calculation results. The turbo-expander generates the electric power efficiently for the high natural gas flow rates which variations are slight. The determined design flow rate of the turbo-expander has the highest coverage of the natural gas flow rates. The electricity generation is calculated as much as 9 MW(B station) and 12 MW(D station) at each pressure reduction station.
