In order to increase automotive engine development efficiency and reduce the cost, a simulation model is often used, in this paper, with software AMESim the automotive engine lubrication system model was built to simulate the steady lubricant flow rate and pressure in the system at difference engine speed. Comparison between simulation and measurement on the test bench shows that the simulated results are in good accord with experimental data, the lubricant flow rate deviation is less than 3.5% and the pressure deviation at the measurement points is less than 4.0%, so it can be concluded that the model can be used to simulate the automotive engine lubrication system steady lubricant flow and furthermore optimize the system.

We use a random telegraph signal method to investigate nitride trapped hole lateral transport in a charge trap flash memory. The concept of this method is to utilize an interface oxide trap and its associated random telegraph signal as an internal probe to detect a local channel potential change resulting from nitride charge lateral movement. We apply different voltages to the drain of a memory cell and vary a bake temperature in retention to study the electric field and temperature dependence of hole lateral movement in a nitride. Thermal energy absorption by trapped holes in lateral transport is characterized. Mechanisms of hole lateral transport in retention are investigated. From the measured and modeled results, we find that thermally assisted trap-to-band tunneling is a major trapped hole emission mechanism in nitride hole lateral transport.
