In this study, modeling and numerical simulations has been performed to investigate performance characteristics of constant power regulator system for swash plate type axial piston pump. The commercial numerical simulation software, AMESim was applied for analyzing the dynamic behavior of constant power regulator system of swash plate axial piston pump. The validity of simulation model of constant power regulator system is verified by comparing simulation results with experiments. Also, the behavior of main components of constant power regulator system such as spool, sleeve and counterbalance piston is investigated using the results of computer simulation.

An experimental and analytical study was made on the heat transfer characteristics of one small (150 W), two medium (60 and 1,500 W, respectively) and two large (7,500and 100,000 W) two-phase loop thermosyphons (TLT), and the results from the experiments were used to see if a computer simulation code alone for such TLT heat transfer systems would give any meaningful quantitative results without being accompanied with some benchmark experimental verification. Two simulation methods were used for the analysis of the systems, i.e., the lumped and the sectorial thermal resistance methods. The study clearly shows that the computer simulation for the three TLTs can predict the most cases of the affecting parameters involved, provided that correct empirical correlations are used. To do so, however, the interior temperature distribution had to be verified by experiment.

The design of high power electronic circuits and the verification of the design by practical experiments are time and cost consuming. Recently power circuit simulation technique is developing to do it easily. However, most of the simulation has used the ideal switch model consists of passive component that can not describe the physical characteristics of semiconductor devices and cannot describe the switching transient state. For the design of such power electronic circuits by the simulation, the switching transients are very important. Therefore the simulation models must describe the switching transient and the stationary behavior as precisely as possible on the hand and as fast as possible the other hand. This paper introduces the application of the physical models of power devices that are developed by TUM(Technical University of Munich, Germany) for the power electronic circuit analysis.

In the present study, a mean torque predictive model has been proposed and experimentally validated. It includes induction air mass model, fuel delivery model and mean production mode. Air induction and fuel delivery model considering dynamic behaviors of air induction and fuel delivery were proposed to predict the air-fuel ratio excursions under transient condition. Torque function model reflects thermal efficiency, volumetric efficiency, friction and effect of spark timing. In the spark timing model, knock limit and acceleration retard are included. Experiments were carried out to validate the simulation model for the step changes of throttle at constant engine speed. The results show reasonable agreements between simulation and experiment at fully warmed condition. Using this model, fueling strategies are varied with fast throttle open and it can predict air-fuel ratio excursion and IMEP.

In this study, experiments were performed for various drying air temperatures, air flow rates tray distance to analyze drying characteristics of batch type tunnel dryer. In comparison of tunnel drying with cabinet drying which is currently used in the farm, the results of drying simulation model of cabinet dryer was used and then the possibility of applying the drying simulation model of cabinet dryer to batch type tunnel dryer was investigated. The results showed that as the drying temperature increased, the drying rte and moisture difference in the direction of air flow increased and as the air flow rate increased, the drying rate increased and moisture differences decreased. In tunnel dryer, drying through bottom of the tray had large effect on drying rate and the effect was more significant when the drying temperature increased. As air flow rate increased, the difference of drying rates between tunnel and cabinet drying increased and drying rate of tunnel of drying was higher. The drying simulation model could estimate moisture content in tunnel more precisely by using modified effective moisture diffusion coefficient for air flow rate.

Numerical simulation is one of the most useful tools to study gas discharge phenomena that occur in alternating current plasma display panel (AC-PDP) cell. Most PDP cell simulations have been performed for two-dimensional cell, is cross-section along the address electrode. We developed a three-dimensional PDP simulator and applied it to a T-shaped electrode cell in order to show the effects of sustain electrode shape that cannot be included in two-dimensional simulation. The dependence of power consumption on electrode shape and area in the simulation showed the same trend as experiment.

In this paper, we consider an optimal allocation of constant service efforts in queueing network to maximize the system throughput. For this purpose, using the perturbation analysis, we apply a stochastic optimization algorithm to two types of queueing systems. Our simulation results indicate that the estimates obtained from a stochastic optimization algorithm for a two-tandem queuing network are very accurate, and those for closed loop manufacturing system are a little apart from the known optimal allocation. We find that as simulation time increases for obtaining a new gradient (performance measure with respect to decision variables) by perturbation algorithm, the estimates tend to be more stable. Thus, we consider that it would be more desirable to have more accurate sensitivity of performance measure by enlarging simulation time rather than more searching steps with less accurate sensitivity. We realize that more experiments on various types of systems are needed to identify such a relationship with regards to stopping rule, the size of moving step, and updating period for sensitivity.

This paper presents an aspect-oriented approach to simulation design and analysis in system design phase for integrated logistics system simulation. The integrated logistics system composed of AS/RS (Automated Storages and Retrieval System), AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicle System), STVs (Sorting Transfer Vehicle System) and Conveyor System is designed by using the aspect-oriented approach and UML (Unified Modeling Language). The multi-factorial design of experiments and regression analysis are used for design parameters of the system and Evolution Strategies is used to verify each parameter. Aspect-oriented approach for the integrated logistics system simulation shows the advantages of code reusability, extendible, modulation, easy improvement and a better design technique.

최근 시뮬레이션은 높은 신뢰도를 요구하는 통신망시스템이나, 높음 품질수준을 요 구하는 제조시스템의 분석 및 설계에 적용되어지고 있다. 이러한 신뢰도가 높은 시스템에 대한 시뮬레이션 적용의 난제는 실제 시스템과 시뮬레이션 모형이 얼마나 정확히 모델링을 하는가 하는 문제와 실제 모델링을 하여 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 얼마나 빠른 시간내에 정확 히 결과를 산출해 낼 수 있는가를 하는 것이다. 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위해서 속산시뮬 레이션(fast simulation) 기법들이 연구되고 있다. 그러한 기법들로 Importance Sampling (IS), Regenerative Method (RM), Parallel Simulation 등이 연구되고 있다. IS는 잘 알려진 분산축소 기법으로 속산시뮬레이션을 위하여 많이 사용되고 있으나 실제로 복잡한 모델에 적용하기에는 많은 어려움이 따른다. 그 이유는 최적 표본분포 (Optimal Sampling Distribution)를 찾기 위한 방법이 정형화되어 있지 않아 모델마다 최적표본분포를 유사하게 추정해야 하는 어려움이 따르기 때문이다. 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위하여 Nonparametric Improtance Sampling을 제안하고 실제로 M/M/1 대기행렬 모형에 적용하여 보았다.

Todays computer communication technology let people to do many unrealistic things possible and the use of those technologies is becoming increasingly prevalent throughout the military operation. Both DIS and ADS are welled defined computer aided military simulations. This study discusses a simulation of stochastic combat network modeling through Internet. We have developed two separate simulation models, one for clients and another for server, and validated for conducting studies with these two models. The object-oriented design was necessary to define the system entities and their relationship, to partition functionality into system entities, and to transform functional metrics into realizations derived from system component behaviors. Heterogeneous forces for each side are assumed at any battle node. The time trajectories for mean number of survivors at each node, some important combat measures, and relative difference computations between models were made. We observe and may conclude that the differences exist and some fo these are significant based on a limited number of experiments.
