This paper first studied the revolution of knowledge quantity and knowledge level in SECI processes and analyzed the relationships between them. Then this paper studied SECI knowledge creation's influence factors from three aspects and classified all the factors according to the four processes of SECI. Thirdly, this study set up the mathematical model of SECI spiral and used"Origin"to simulate the knowledge creation affect.Through the simulation, this study reached following results: firstly, the proper original knowledge quantity ratio between mentor and mentee is benefit for the knowledge transfer and knowledge creation; secondly, the knowledge overlapping rate between mentor and mentee maintaining between 0.4-0.6 is most helpful to knowledge transferring; thirdly, compared with mentee's expressing ability, mentor's has more obvious impact on knowledge creation; fourthly, the knowledge integration ability has positive impact on knowledge level and the result depends on knowledge expressing.Finally, this study combined the simulation conclusions with the practical mentoring program of SNC, gave some suggestions to the company management in order to promote the mentoring program to achieve better results.
