  • Patent number: 11790142
    Abstract: Disclosed in the present invention is a flexible modeling method for a timing constraint of a register. Simulation ranges of input terminal transition time, clock terminal transition time, and output load capacitance of a register are determined first, simulation is performed under each combination of input terminal transition time, clock terminal transition time, and output load capacitance to obtain a timing constraint range, then setup slack and hold slack are extracted in this constraint range with a particular interval, and then simulation is performed to obtain a clock terminal-to-output terminal delay. Finally, a mutually independent timing model of the register is established by using an artificial neural network, where the clock terminal-to-output terminal delay is modeled as a function of the input terminal transition time, the clock terminal transition time, the output load capacitance, the setup slack, the hold slack, and an output terminal state.

  • Patent number: 11790132
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a calculation method of eddy current loss in magnetic materials based on magnetic-inductance. The present invention proposes a vector model of a magnetic circuit, an eddy current reaction is equivalent to a magnetic-inductance component in the magnetic circuit, and the eddy current loss can be fast calculated by the vector model of the magnetic circuit. When the frequency is high, the eddy current loss dominates an iron loss and can be estimated as an entire iron loss. The present invention proposes the vector model of the magnetic circuit based on which the calculation method of eddy current loss in magnetic materials is proposed as well. Through the proposed method the eddy current loss in magnetic materials can be directly calculated by using the magnetic-inductance and the magnetic flux in the magnetic circuit, which can provide guidance for design and performance evaluation of high-frequency electrical equipment from a brand new viewpoint.

  • Patent number: 11786882
    Abstract: A device for magnetic field-assisted simulation of zero-microgravity flame synthesis of nanoparticles includes a gradient magnetic field device, a combustor and a product collection device. The gradient magnetic field device is composed of two magnetic field devices arranged face to face. The combustor is located between the two magnetic field devices. The outlet of the combustor is vertically upward. The position is below the magnetic field center of the gradient magnetic field device. The body force acting on the flame and surrounding magnetic species thereof by the gradient magnetic field device counteracts the gravitational buoyancy lift effect, so that flame synthesis is carried out under a simulated zero/microgravity flame to prepare the nanoparticles. The device is able to use a gradient magnetic field to simulate the zero/microgravity flame on the ground to synthesize the nanoparticles under special flame characteristics, with reduced flame disturbance, improved stability, and no overheated region.
