  Recent advances in generation of femtosecond pre-bunched beams have a potential to generate coherent THz radiation occurring via combination of Smith-Purcell radiation (SPR) and Cherenkov radiation (ChR) generated in a corrugated capillary. This mechanism was studied theoretically *. LUCX accelerator at High Energy Accelerator Research Organisation (KEK) has been upgraded by introducing fs Ti:Sa laser system and it is currently generating short tens of fs electron bunches **. In this report we present EM simulations of Ch.SPR generated in a corrugated channel in infinite dielectric and in a dielectric corrugated capillary. CST PIC solver is used as a simulation tool. It was earlier used for simulation of Transition radiation ***. Intensity dependencies of ChR and SPR peaks as functions of the capillary radius and the corrugation depth are compared with the theoretical investigation *. Output of THz radiation from the dielectric capillary with a radiation reflector is simulated.
