For reduction of $CO_2$ emission emitted from combustion engine, the developed nations have been focused on R&D of hybrid electric vehicle. Further more, many automobile companies are researching on various techniques related to engine used in HEV to enhance fuel economy. One of key techniques is miller cycle that control a valve timing to reduce compression stroke for saving energy and increase expansion stroke for high power. In this study, it was investigated the in-cylinder flow characteristics of miller cycle with variable intake valve timing by using the ANSYS simulation code. For simulation, the key analytic parameter defined as intake valve closing timing and cam profile. As main results, it was shown that LIVC cause a lower pressure inside cylinder and had better control turbulence intensity.

Recently, many methods are studied to analyze the noise of HDD and to reduce it. In this study, the simulation tool(SPATH) was developed to analyze a noise of HDD. The prediction technique of sound pressure level(SPL) of a given structural shape enables us to design a cover and a base with much less vibration and noise. In this paper, we measured the force of disk-spindle motor and predicted SPL from HDD by computational simulation. To get a SPL of HDD by computational simulation, modal analysis and forced vibration analysis were performed with ANSYS, and sound radiation was computed using SYSNOISE. The calculated results were compared with experimental results and a good agreement was obtained.

The Floating Wave Energy Convertor (FWEC) mooring design has an important requirement associated with the fact that, for a wave energy converter, the mooring connections may interact with their oscillations, possibly modifying its energy absorption significantly. It is therefore important to investigate what might be the most suitable mooring design according to the converter specifications and take into account the demands placed on the moorings in order to assure their survivability. The objective of this study is to identify a computational fluid dynamics method for investigating the effects of coupling a wave energy device with a mooring system. Using the commercial software ANSYS AQWA and ANSYS FLUENT, a configuration was studied for different displacements from the equilibrium position, load demands on the moorings, and internal fluid motion. These results and findings form a basis for future efforts in computational model development, design refinement, and investigation of station keeping for FWEC units.

In this paper, a conjugate heat transfer around cylinder with heat generation was investigated. Both forced convection and conduction was considered in the present finite element simulation. A finite element formulation based on SIMPLE type algorithm was adopted for the solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. We compared the finite element solution with that of Ansys fluent 12.0, in which finite volume method was employed for spatial discretization. It was found that the finite element method gave more accurate solution than Ansys fluent 12.0. Further, it was found that the maximum temperature inside cylinder is positioned at the rear side due to the flow separation.

In this paper, an optimization design method of a diffuser using Bernoulli's theorem was reviewed. The aspect ratio of the cylindrical diffuser chamber and the diameter ratio of the air inlet and outlet were used as design parameters. For the optimal design of the cylindrical diffuser chamber, the air flow inside the chamber was simulated using ANSYS while changing the aspect ratio of the chamber. In order to confirm the simulation results, the diffuser manufactured using the laser processing machine was measured. Through ANSYS simulation and measurement, it was found that the optimal design condition was when the aspect ratio (chamber height/radius) of the diffuser chamber was 1/2 and the diameter ratio of the air inlet and outlet was also 1/2.

Corrugated-core sandwich panels are prevalent for many applications in industries. The researches performed with the aim of optimization of such structures in the literature have considered a deterministic approach. However, it is believed that deterministic optimum points may lead to high-risk designs instead of optimum ones. In this paper, an effort has been made to provide a reliable and robust design of corrugated-core sandwich structures through stochastic and probabilistic multi-objective optimization approach. The optimization is performed using a coupling between genetic algorithm (GA), Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) and finite element method (FEM). To this aim, Prob. Design module in ANSYS is employed and using a coupling between optimization codes in MATLAB and ANSYS, a connection has been made between numerical results and optimization process. Results in both cases of deterministic and probabilistic multi-objective optimizations are illustrated and compared together to gain a better understanding of the best sandwich panel design by taking into account reliability and robustness. Comparison of results with a similar deterministic optimization study demonstrated better reliability and robustness of optimum point of this study.

Due to the nature of cavitation numerical analyses, computational optimization of a pump with respect to the cavitation properties is extremely demanding. In this paper it is shown how a combination of Transient Blade Row (TBR) method and some simplifications can be used for making the optimization process more efficient and thus possible on current generation of hardware. The aim of the paper is not the theory of hydraulic design. Instead, the practical aspects of numerical optimization are shown. This is done on an example of a radial pump and a combination of ANSYS CFX, ANSYS software tools and custom scripts is used. First, a comparison of TBR and fully-transient simulation is made. Based on the results, the TBR method is chosen and a parametric model assembled. Design of Experiment (DOE) table is computed and the results are used for sensitivity analysis. As the last step, the final design is created and computed as fully-transient. In conclusion, the results are discussed.

Numerical studies on the spray characteristics of closed-type and open-type swirl injectors were conducted using ANSYS Fluent. By changing injection pressures, discharge coefficient and spray angle were calculated using the Reynolds stress BSL turbulent model. The numerical results were compared with previous experimental data to examine their accuracy. For a closed-type swirl injector, spray angles matched well with experimental results and discharge coefficients showed approximately 8% differences. On the contrary, discharge coefficients of an open-type swirl injector were similar with experimental result but its spray angles presented around 15% differences. Though the numerical results were not perfectly consistent with experimental data, it is thought that they could be sufficiently used for analyzing spray characteristics, specially which is hard to be measured from experiments. Numerical simulation with different turbulent models was also performed to examine their effects on the numerical results.

Non-Traditional Optimization methods are successfully used in solving many engineering problems. Shaft is one of important element of machines and it is used to transmit power from a machine which produces power to a machine which absorbs power. In this paper, ten non-traditional optimization methods that are ALO, GWO, DA, FPA, FA, WOA, CSO, PSO, BA and GSA are used to find minimum weight of hollow shaft to get global optimal solution. The problem has two design variables and two inequality constraints. The comparative results show that the Particle Swarm Optimization outperforms other methods and the results are validated using ANSYS.
