Abstract

Effect of conductance factors on performance of vacuum system was simulated for optimum design of vacuum system. In this investigation, the feasibility of modeling mechanism for VacSim<TEX>$^{Multi}$</TEX> simulator was proposed. Application specific design of vacuum system is required to meet the particular process conditions for various industrial implementations of vacuum equipments. Geometry and length, diameter of exhaust pipeline were modeled as simulation modeling variables for conductance effects. Series vacuum system was modeled and simulated with varied dimensions and structures of exhaust pipeline. Variation of pipeline diameter showed the more significant effects on vacuum characteristics than that of pipeline length variations. It was also observed that the aperture structure of pipeline had the superior vacuum characteristics among the modeled systems.
