   1) HVAC Vent and DEF Analysis:* Predominantly HVAC Ducts, Vents and Nozzles are analysed in this system to study about vent flow hitting on target and Nozzle & Demi flow hitting on Windshield and Door glass. Fundamental knowledge on fluid mechanics is widely used in this system to corelate the results. Along with pressure and velocity contours.* Package Used: ANSA,StarCCM+,MOCAFoam (OpenFoam),Paraview(For DEF),Metapost(Vent)2)HEAD LAMP STEADY/TRANSIENT THERMAL ANALYSIS/MODELLING (HEAD LAMP,REAR CROSS LAMP or FOG LAMP with LED/BULB):*The various heat sources of headlamps are LED, T/SIG Bulbs, Day Time Running Lamps (DRL) and Projector Bulb Assembly which is from HID/Xenon/Halogen. All this sources may or may not be in ON condition at one particular instant of time, or it may be in combinations some will be ON and Some will be OFF depending on drivers intent3) AIR ACTIVE FLAP (AAF) ANALYSIS/MODELLING:*An AAF of a vehicle includes a duct allowing ambient air flow in to an engine compartment, a motor in the duct to generate driving force and having a hinge shaft configured to transmit the generating driving force, and a flap coupled to a hinge shaft of the motor to regulate a degree of opening and closing of the opening, and the released being state of being coupled to the hinge shaft of the motor when the power supply to the motor is cut off, to open the opening. When the power is not applied to the Education Accomplishments motor of the active air flap due to abnormal reason, flap is separated from the motor so as to be prevented from being stuck due to fault of the motor resulting from an abnormal reason or due to dead battery4) SOLAR LOAD ANALYSIS USING LUCID SHAPE TOOL(FOR HEADLAMP AND FOG LAMP):*To prevent the coloration or deformation of lamp internal components occurred by environmental heat source such as sun (Refraction and Reflection)* Package Used: StarCCM+,ANSA,LUCID SHAPE TOOL,CATIA
