  • An automotive engine cooling system is closely related with overall engine performances, such as reduction of fuel consumption, decrease of air pollution, and increase of engine life. Because of complex reaction between each component, the direct experiment, using a vehicle, takes high cost, long time, and slow response to the system change. Therefore, a computer simulation would provide the designer with an inexpensive and effective tool for design, development, and optimization of the engine cooling system over a wide range of operating conditions. In this work, it has been predicted the thermal performance of the engine cooling system in cases of stationary mode, constant speed mode, and city-drive mode by mathematical modelling of each component and numerical analysis. The components are engine, radiator, heater, thermostat, water pump, and cooling fans. Since the engine model is the most important, that is divided into eight sub-sections. The volume mean temperature of eight sub-sections are simultaneously calculated at a time. For detail calculation, the radiator and heater are also divided into many sub-sections like control volumes in finite difference method. Each sub-section is assumed to consist of three parts, coolant, tube with fin, and air. Hence it has been developed the simulation program that can be used in case of design and system configuration changes. The overall performance results obtained by the program were desirable and the time-traced tendencies of the results agreed fairly well with those of actual situations.

  • In this paper, a computer simulation program was developed to interpret the results measured by photoreflectance spectroscopy. The developed program is implemented so that the user can easily change the factors required for optical modulation characteristic interpretation, and the result of the value can be checked simultaneously with the actual measurement result. The results obtained by photoreflectance spectroscopy are obtained by mixing a third derivative function form (TDFF) modulated around a bandgap with a Franz-Keldysh oscillation (FKO) signal due to an electric field at a surface and an interface higher than the bandgap. Through the computer simulation program, the optical characteristics that appear in the GaSb Epi layer formed as a single layer were analyzed, and very useful results were obtained by specializing in optical modulation analysis. In addition, a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) analysis tool was added to facilitate frequency characteristics analysis of FKO.

  • The hydraulic system have been used much in a heavy machine which high power source is desired. In the case of the heavy press machine and the injection molding machine, the use of the hydraulic power is essential especially for increasing productivity and getting the good products. Because the hydraulic circuit is very complex and the system parameters are uncertain, the development of the simulation model for hydraulic system is not easy in the heavy machine. In this case, Many researchers have used a commercial program for analysis and development in a major field of study. In this paper, the aim is to develop the simulation model of the hydraulic system with various commercial program for trajectory tracking. And adaptive control method is applied to the simulation model for the trajectory tracking of a cylinder motion. Load on the cylinder is modeled in ADAMS program, the hydraulic circuit including pump, spool valve and cylinder is modeled in AMESim program and a controller is designed in MatLab/simulink program. The suggested model is applied for the tracking of a cylinder motion, and through computer simulation, its trajectory tracking performance is illustrated.

  • A simulation method combined with the simulation program with integrated circuit emphasis (SPICE) and the technology computer-aided design (TCAD) has been proposed to estimate the electrical characteristics of the metal-ferroelectric-semiconductor field effect transistor (MFS/MFISFET). The complex behavior of the ferroelectric property was analyzed and surface potential of the channel region in the MFS gate structure was calculated with the numerical TCAD method. Since the calculated surface potential is equivalent with the surface potential obtained with the SPICE model of the conventional MOSFET, we can obtain the current-voltage characteristics of MFS/MFISFET corresponding to the applied gate bias. Therefore, the proposed method will be very useful for the design of the integrated circuits with MFS/MFISFET memory cell devices.

  • A computer program has been developed to analyze easily the Kikuchi pattern which is useful in obtaining the crystallographic data of materials. This program can simulate the Kikuchi patterns for 14 Bravais lattice by using the matrix algebra. Convenient menu system was also added to enhance the applications of the program. That is, by varying the tilting angle, camera length (RADIUS) and $S_{max}$ in the menu, various Kikuchi patterns can be obtained. The simulated patterns, then, can be compared with the experimentally-obtained Kikuchi pattern to examine validity of simulation.

  • Simulation of daylighting by computer program is a method to avoid unnecessary efforts in manufacture of its testing models, to reduce its measuring tolerances and be able to provide variations of various weather conditions as well. Many simulation programs on daylighting have been released freely or commercialized for selling, however, a demonstration of their availability and validity as a tool for evaluating daylighting performance is required since each one has its own characteristics. The objectives of this study lie in suggesting an application method of evaluation tools and demonstration of limits and characteristics so as to more easily determine the daylightingperformance in the very initial stages of planning for an arbitrary office space in which windows with daylight access are built. We produced scale model of the general light inducing type side lighting with lightshelfand ceiling, and the luminance (at 78 measuring points) and illuminance (at 84 measuring points) were measured in a clear sky. And a comparison of the measured values and the calculated values from a computer simulation using the Lightscape program was performed.

  • The spent fuel rod extracting machine is automatically operated in high radioactive environment, so high reliability of operation is required. In this paper, to enhance the reliability of this machine by providing a close monitoring capability. a real time graphic simulation method is suggested. This method utilizes conventional IGRIP (Interactive Graphics Robot Instruction Program) 3D graphic simulation tool to visualize and simulate the 3D graphic model of this machine. Also, the dedicated protocol is defined for transmission of the operational data of the machine. The real time graphic simulation is realized by developing the socket module between a graphic workstation and a machine control computer through the TCP/IP network and by dividing the 3D graphic simulation GSL(Graphic Simulation Language) program as a small sized sub routine. The suggested method is implemented while automatically operating the rod extracting machine. The result of implementation shows that the real time 3D graphic simulation is well synchronized with the actual machine according to the operational data.

  • In the present work, design procedure and computer simulation of an AUV are documented briefly. The design procedure containing the design of propulsion system and CFD simulation of hydrodynamics behavior of the hull leads to achieve an optimum mechanical performance of AUV system. After designing, a comprehensive one dimensional model including motor, propeller, and AUV hull behavior simulates the whole dynamics of AUV system. In this design, to select the optimum AUV hull, several noses and tails are examined by CFD tools and the brushless motor is selected based on the first order model of DC electrical motor. By calculating thrust and velocity in functional point, OpenProp as a tool to select the optimum propeller is applied and the characteristics of appropriate propeller are determined. Finally, a computer program is developed to simulate the interaction between different components of AUV. The simulation leads to determine the initial acceleration, final velocity, and angular velocity of electrical motor and propeller. Results show the final AUV performance point is in the maximum efficiency regions of DC electrical motor and propeller.

  • In this study, a real-time simulation method for the phenomena, which are too complex to be simulated during real-time computer games, was proposed based on the neural network. The procedure of proposed method is to 1) obtain correlation data between input parameters and output parameters by mathematical modeling, code analyses, and so on, 2) train the neural network with the correlation data, 3) and insert the trained neural network in a game program as a simulation module. For the case that the number of the input and output parameters is too high to be analyzed, a method was proposed to omit parameters of little importance. The method was successfully applied to severe accidents of nuclear power plants, reflecting that the method was very effective in real time simulation of complex phenomena.
