Specific Working

The engine cooling module consists of condenser, radiator and fan (CRFM), which has long been recognized as a main source of sound and vibration in the automotive industry. As the engine becomes increasingly compact and powerful, customers gradually have higher expectations for automobile NVH performance than ever before. Thus the reduction of noise and vibration induced by CRFM becomes critical, which can greatly influence overall NVH performance. Combined with experimental and numerical methods, this paper focuses on the identification and optimization of steering wheel (SW) vibration induced by CRFM for a vehicle with V6 engine while engine idling. The numerical model established in this paper, based on Matlab and taking chassis vibration into account, can predict and optimize the vibration of CRFM under specific working condition with the help of energy decoupling and Newmark-Beta methodology. The optimization design of CRFM mainly involves the stiffness, position and angle of isolators. The numerical simulation results are validated experimentally, which can help further design of CRFM.

The Impact

In order to analyze the impact of engine cabin parts on aerodynamic characteristics, the related parts are divided into three categories except the engine cooling components: front thin plates (average thickness of 2mm), bottom-suspension and interior panels. The aerodynamic drag coefficient (Cd) were obtained upon the combination schemes consisting of the three types of parts by numerical simulation. Results show that Cd by simulation is closer to the test value gained by the wind tunnel experiment when front thin plates were simplified to the two-dimensional interface with zero thickness. The error is only 5.23%. Meanwhile this scheme reduces grid numbers, thus decreasing the calculating time. As the front thin plates can guide the flow, there is no difference on the Cd values gained from the model with or without bottom-suspension or interior panels when the engine cabin contains the front thin plates; while only both bottom-suspension and interior panels are removed, the Cd value can be reduced when the cabin doesn’t contain the front thin plates.

The paper aims to simulate Tsunami currents around moving and fixed structures using the moving-particle semi-implicit method. An open channel with four different sets of structures is employed in the numerical model. The simulation results for the case with one structure indicate that the flow around the moving structure is faster than that around the fixed structure. The flow becomes more complex for cases with additional structures.

A numerical model for dispersion of hydrogen in hydrogen powered automobiles was established basing on finite element method with species transport and reaction module of FLUENT. And corresponding numerical simulations were done in order to analysis the dispersion of hydrogen due to leakage from different position of the storage cylinder on the automobiles. Also, the distribution of the hazard region due to hydrogen dispersion was obtained. The simulation results show that the baffle above the cylinder can accumulate the hydrogen. Therefore, the high concentration region of hydrogen exists near the baffle. The study can provide reference for hydrogen sensor placement and safety design of hydrogen powered automobiles.

Abstract This study aims to determine the accuracy of Runge kutta order-4 (RK-4) and order-5 (RK-4) as a solution to the SEIRS numerical model for online game addiction in mathematics students at Universitas Negeri Makassar. The model used in online game addiction is the Suspected-Exposed-Infected-Recovered-Suspected (SEIRS). This is a quantitative research with secondary data obtained from a closed questionnaire where students were given several answer choices. It starts by examining the SEIRS model of online game addiction, before determining general solutions using the RK-4 and RK-5 techniques. The model is then analyzed and simulated using RK-4 and RK-5 techniques, which are compared to determine the most accurate one. The results show that the SEIRS simulation model is accurate for predicting the number of online game addictions. Furthermore, the Runge-Kutta technique can be used to observe the trend of increasing cases of online games among students. The numerical simulation showed that the RK-4 technique is more accurate than the RK-5 when the population is larger. The simulation results of the SEIRS model using MAPLE provided an estimated increase in online game addiction that can be used by students and their parents to limit the number of permits associated with launching online games.

Abstract This work is dedicated to comparing the experimental and numerical results of the dynamic responses of a novel floating system integrating a floating offshore wind turbine with a steel fish farming cage (FOWT-SFFC) under wind and wave loadings. The patents of this floating system have been successfully licensed recently in China and USA. The experimental study is carried out in the Ocean Basin of Tsinghua Shenzhen International Graduate School, with a Froude scaling of 1:30. A small commercial wind turbine is used to produce the scaled wind loads on FOWT-SFFC in terms of the similarity of thrust force. In this paper, the setup of model tests is described first. Second, a numerical model of prototype FOWT-SFFC is built in the software OrcaFlex. Then, this numerical model is calibrated and updated by the results of free decay tests and static offset tests in the basin. The numerical model also adopts three sets of drag coefficients. Finally, the experimental results of FOWT-SFFC under a variety of load cases are presented and compared with the numerical simulation results. They include seakeeping tests for hydrodynamic motion response amplitude operators (RAOs) and dynamic responses corresponding to normal operating and survival conditions. The numerical simulation results show that, though they are in good agreement with model test data especially on time records of dynamic responses, they are sensitive to the selection of drag coefficients particularly on extreme values and low-frequency spectral contents. Appropriate drag coefficients are suggested to be used in the numerical model for a specific environmental condition. Drag coefficients benchmarked from the free decay tests may not be suitable for moderate and harsh wave conditions.

Simulation Results

After exploitation of groundwater had been reduced and the groundwater level of the confined aquifer had risen, land subsidence was observed to continue rather than cease for several years according to the layer-wise mark monitoring data in Xi’an. To analyze the phenomena, a numerical model of a coupled one-dimensional multilayer aquifer system is developed to represent land subsidence due to hydraulic head variation in the pumped layer. The numerical simulation results show that the pressure head in other layers does not rise immediately when the hydraulic head in the pumped layer starts to recover after pumping ceases. In addition, after the pumping is stopped, a dividing point can be found in aquitards next to the pumped layer, with the aquitards being divided into two parts: a compressed part and a rebounding part. The dividing points move toward the side and away from the pumped layer with the transferring of pore pressure in the aquitard. The results of the simulation also show that there is a transition period between land subsidence and rebound. In this transition period, land could continue to subside even though the hydraulic head in the pumped layer begins to recover.
