For such an operating point or cycle, the masses and the cooling circuit of the electric machine determine the time dependent temperature distribution within the machine. For a specific load cycle, the thermal simulation of the machine can reveal possible mass and size reductions for a given insulation class of the machine. In addition, such simulations allow the comparison of various cooling concepts. In the machine design process, the first step is a conventional electromagnetic machine design. From the geometric data of this design and the material properties, the parameters of a thermal equivalent circuit can be derived. The differential and algebraic equations of the thermal equivalent circuit are solved by a simulation tool to predict the temperatures of the critical parts in the electric machine. A thermal equivalent circuit is accurate enough to predict the thermal behavior of the critical parts in the electric machine, and yet not too complex, to obtain simulation results with moderate numerical effort. This enables an iterative design process to optimize the drive.}, language = {en} } @misc{Hipp, author = {Hipp, Susanne}, title = {Designing steerable antenna arrays using simulation}, series = {GeMIC 2020}, journal = {GeMIC 2020}, abstract = {Antenna arrays are one possibility to design a steerable antenna. Designing an antenna array is a challenging task, where simulation can help to reduce the design complexity. Simulating a complete array can be computational expensive, therefore designing the array is often broken in several task. The first goal is to design and optimize a single antenna element followed by an optimization of this antenna element while considering the vicinity of further equal elements. A unit cell approach is a feasible and easy way to accomplish this task. This approach already considers parameter such as active element pattern and radiation pattern angles. As soon as the unit cell optimization, emulating an infinite array, is finished, the real array with a finite size is simulated, especially considering edge elements and parameters such as excitation patterns or active and passive elements. Due to the high simulation effort at this stage optimization should be kept to a minimum and high performance computing might be required. Finally, a feeding network and different excitations for various beam patterns can be investigated using combined methods to reduce the simulation effort.}, subject = {Antennengruppe}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DeubzerHobelsbergerMottoketal., author = {Deubzer, Michael and Hobelsberger, Martin and Mottok, J{\"u}rgen and Schiller, Frank and Dumke, Reiner and Siegle, Markus and Margull, Ulrich and Niemetz, Michael and Wirrer, Gerhard}, title = {Modeling and Simulation of Embedded Real-Time Multi-Core Systems}, series = {Proceedings of the 3rd Embedded Software Engineering Congress, 7. bis 9.
