Many web-based simulation environments have been proposed to create models and execute simulation through the Web. Although web-based simulation has the advantage of utilizing many computers connected to Internet, overhead of the web server and heavy traffic caused by Java RMI degrade the performance and scalability of simulation. In this paper, we design and implement web-based distributed simulator using Java for the scalability and performance. In addition, we can apply the proposed simulator to create model server and client engines in online game. We apply the proposed simulator to simulate ATM switch queueing model.

In this study, LPG-blended DME fuel was experimentally investigated in CI(compression ignition) engine. In particular, performance, emissions characteristics (including hydrocarbon, CO, and NOx emissions), and combustion stability of engine fueled with LPG-blended DME fuel were examined. The extent of LPG fuel in the blended fuel was 0-40 wt%. Results showed that stable engine operation was possible in a wide range of engine loads on DME blended with maximum 30% of LPG by mass in a CI engine. Considering the results of the engine power output and exhaust emissions, blended fuel up to 30% of LPG by mass can be used as an alternative to diesel in a CI engine. LPG blended DME fuel is expected to have potential for enlarging the DME market.

The static and dynamic behaviour of VGT and EGR systems has a significant impact on overall engine performance, fuel economy and exhaust emissions. This is because they define the state and composition of the air charge entering the engine. This work focused on the effect of the aperture ratio of VGT and EGR on the emission and flow characteristics under partial loads conditions. The investigation carried out using 2 liter PCCI 4 cylinder diesel engine with VGT and EGR. The result of this study shows that smoke increases with increasing EGR rate and NOx decreases with increasing EGR rate. It was also found that the residual gas contents greatly impact on soot emission under partial load condition. Finally, it can be concluded that VGT and EGR aperture ratio can greatly impact not only on soot and NOx but also air charging.

최근 고유가 문제와 환경에 대한 관심 증가로 인해 친환경저연비 자동차에 대한 기술 연구가 다양한 분야에서 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이 가운데서도 특히 반도체 및 배터리의 급속한 기술발전으로 자동차용 부품들이 기계식 방식에서 전자식 방식으로 대체되고 있다. 그 중에서 전동식 워터펌프는 엔진의 회전에 연동된 타이밍 벨트로 구동되는 기존의 기계식 펌프와 달리, 펌프부에 전기모터 및 제어기가 결합되어 독립적인 구동능력을 갖추고 있다. 자동차 동력효율을 높이기 위해 내연기관 및 주변 전장장치들의 온도를 주행조건에 따라 제어하여 적정하게 유지시킬 필요가 있으며 이를 위한 자동차 부품으로 전동 워터펌프의 중요성이 커지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 자동차용 전동워터펌프 제어기 개발을 위하여 브러시리스형 DC모터를 적용하였다. 브러시리스형 DC모터는 고속 및 큰 부하에서 Back EMF 대비 전류의 지상 성분이 발생하여 상전류 증가 및 전체 효율을 떨어뜨린다. 이에 본 연구에서는 Lead Angle의 양을 계산하는 기법을 이용하여 워터펌프에 적용하였다.

The aim of this study is to relieve the poor ventilation problem of the diesel locomotive engine load test building, located in an urban area. This paper evaluates the ventilation performances of the studied load test building based on the temperature measurement experiment and the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) during the engine load test. The temperature rise caused by the radiator blower of the building was turned out to be the main cause of disturbing the thermal conditions of the building. The indoor temperature distributions simulated by Fluent were validated with the temperature measurement results obtained from the studied building. The simulation results indicated that the comfort condition of this building was poor We suggested several remedial changes in the duct structure of this building for the improvement of the comfort conditions. In addition, a prototype drawing combining several improved design options was proposed. and then the simulation of the temperature distribution in the proposed prototype was performed. The result indicated that the indoor thermal condition of this proposed building was improved when compared with that of the current building.

An automotive cooling system is designed sufficiently large enough to endure the excessive heat load. In general driving condition, the cooling systems are too large to operate optimally. An experimental study was performed to evaluate a novel automotive cooling strategy using the latent heat of a phase change material (PCM). The strategy is expected to reduce the cooling system size up to around 35% and the engine warm-up time around 60%. The strategy will help improve fuel economy and emissions characteristics of vehicles as a result of reduced total body weight and shortened engine warm-up time by a smaller radiator, as well as more stable combustion mode due to constantly maintained coolant temperature.

The purpose of this paper is to establish a standard finite element analysis model of a piston by carrying out three dimensional modeling of a series six-cylindered CNG engine's piston to forecast temperature distribution at stationary state and the following thermal stress and variation, and cross checking it with existing analysis. Also, in order to evaluate the affects of the cooling system to the piston's heat load, the paper analyzed piston's temperature and thermal stress distribution according to the cooling water temperature changes and the following variations. As a result, the maximum temperature was found at the center of the crown in the piston and the maximum thermal stress occurred from the lower part of the piston.

This study was carried out to develop a system and methodology to simulate the engine load variation occuring during agricultural field operations for a laboratory engine test. The system consisted of an electric dynamometer, an Apple II microcomputer, and a data acquisition and control system. Several pieces of instruments were utilized to measure various engine performance data. Both engine torque and engine speed were fully controlled by a computer program. The dynamic characteristics of the system were analyzed through a series of tests and the limitations on the load simulation test were presented. The results of the study are summarized as follows: 1. Engine speed and toque were controlled by a computer program. The use of a stepping motor and reduction gears enabled engine speed be controlled within 1 rpm. 2. The natural frequency of the dynamometer-engine system was found to be around 5 Hz, at which the load simulation would be impossible because of resonance. 3. For the harmonic inputs with the frequencies above the natural frequency, the signal attenuated too much and therefore the load simulation was impossible. 4. The step response of the system showed an overshoot of 24.5 percent and the settling time for 5 percent criterion was around 3 seconds. 5. When actual field test data are utilized for load simulation, a low-pass filter should be included to attenuate the frequency components around and above the natural frequency.

To expand lean misfire limit and improve combustion stability, the effects of port masking were estimated to secure basic data for applying the mechanism to SI engine instead of asymmetrical port and port throttling devises. For this purpose, various shapes and ratios of masking plates were mounted between port and manifold. The masking effects were evaluated by mixture response test under various load and speed conditions. The results showed that lean misfire limits were expended and fast combustion was observed for all masking shapes and ratios, especially, the effect of diagonal 1/4 masking was remarkable. In conclusion, the port masking method could be easily applied to engine without redesign of port for improving part load performance.

There are many essential elements in making the realistic 3D games, of which one of the most important is mapping. Mapping can add the details to 3D objects easily, which are impossible or difficult by modeling alone, and can reduce file data capacities to run the game engine. The theory of the mapping is to throw 2D image on 3D object correctly, but they do not match each other at the rate of 1:1 100 percent completely due to the difference of the fundamental property of them. To solve this problem, various kinds of mapping methods are developed and used. This paper will compare and analyze the characteristics, and merits and demerits of these various kinds of mapping methods and will inquire which method is the most efficient one.
