EasySee—Ett verktyg för visualisering av mätdata från klimatprovning

Abstract
During the ongoing development of new car models, testing and simulation are used for validation, which involves a large amount of measured data being sampled. To use the tests and simulations in the best way possible, the data collection needs to be effectively worked on. Currently, the evaluation of sampled data is done primarily through studies of numerous parameters in graphs. To avoid problems choosing the appropriate parameters to study, a graphic representation of the system's functions can be used. The purpose of the Master's project is to develop a graphical interface, which visualizes data sampled during the development of a climate system and thereby eases the evaluation. The visualization is enabled through a method that... (More)
During the ongoing development of new car models, testing and simulation are used for validation, which involves a large amount of measured data being sampled. To use the tests and simulations in the best way possible, the data collection needs to be effectively worked on. Currently, the evaluation of sampled data is done primarily through studies of numerous parameters in graphs. To avoid problems choosing the appropriate parameters to study, a graphic representation of the system's functions can be used. The purpose of the Master's project is to develop a graphical interface, which visualizes data sampled during the development of a climate system and thereby eases the evaluation. The visualization is enabled through a method that visualizes a selection of measured data over a surface in an easy-to-grasp way. A model is developed to calculate temperatures in all places in the compartment as well as in parts of the climate unit. These temperatures are represented with colors. The data is primarily sampled in the car model Volvo XC90.The visualization tool EasySee is implemented in MATLAB 7.0 release 14 and Java 1.4.2 on a Windows platform. The interpolation is done by MATLAB with Java responsible for the graphical drawing in the user interface and also the user interaction. This Master's Thesis covers the development process of the visualization tool EasySee a Master's project presented by Volvo Technology Corporation, department 6280 Control and Simulation, in Gothenburg. The Master's Thesis consists of the following main chapters: prerequisites, theory of analyzing sampled data and graphical user interfaces, method of development, results and guidelines for future development. This Master's project resulted in an application with excellent opportunities to ease the daily work analyzing sampled data. (Less)
