The structure of the air intake system directly affect the combustion and heat load in each cylinder. In this paper, using the CFD experience can look the intake pipe gas flow as a 3-D compressed steady flow. It is easy to built a 3-D model grids with the help of GAMBIT software .Using the FLUENT soft software ,it is reasonable to get the the fluid velocity distribution in flow field , and calculate the fluid flowing quality at the exit of manifold, as well as analyze the inhomogeneity of the inlet air.

Devices for reducing environmental pollutant emissions are being installed in ship compression ignition (CI) engines; alternatively, the designs of intake and exhaust pipes and ports are being modified to tune the performance according to the user’s needs. In both cases, substantial computation time and cost are required to simulate the gas flow of the CI engine with an air-intake system. In order to simulate the air-intake system of the CI engine, which changes according to the user’s needs, at a low cost and in a short time, we aimed to analyze the gas flow using a 1D–3D coupled method. The 1D zone was analyzed using the method of characteristics, and the 3D zone was analyzed using the commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code Ansys Fluent R15.0, whereas their coupling was achieved by applying the developed 1D–3D coupling algorithm to Ansys Fluent R15.0 using user-defined functions (UDFs). In the comparison of the pressure of the intake pipe with the experimental result, the average error was 0.58%, thereby validating the approach. In addition, when analyzing the intake pipe and port in a 3D zone, the results of the velocity and pressure were expressed as contours, allowing them to be visualized. It is expected that the 1D–3D coupling algorithm of the air-intake system can be used to reflect the user’s needs and can be used as a method to quickly and accurately calculate the gas flow within tens of minutes.

In order to a the flow of the plane flow field induced by the inner rod rotates and revolves in the cylinder, the Fluent software is used to numerically simulate the plane flow field of the eccentric annulus generated by the planetary motion of the rod string and based on the superposition principle. The velocity distribution and secondary flow of the two flow fields, as well as the fluid force on the inner rod are analyzed. The calculation results show that the flow field induced by the eccentric rotation of the inner rod and the self-rotation of the outer cylinder is quite different from the planetary motion of the inner rod. When rotation of the inner rod has the same direction with the revolution direction, the fluid velocity distribution near the wall of the inner rod is that the velocity on the narrow space side of the annulus is large, and on the wide space side is small. There is a critical value of eccentricity for secondary flow appears when the eccentricity is greater than this value. When rotation of the inner rod is contrary to the revolution, the fluid velocity distribution near the wall of the inner rod is that the velocity on the wide space side of the annulus is large, on the narrow space side is small. Different eccentricity has obvious secondary flow phenomenon where appears in a wide gap and close to the inner rod. When the inner rod revolves, there is a critical value of eccentricity, the inner rod is pushed outward by the fluid force when the eccentricity is less than this critical value. On the contrary, the inner rod is pushed inward. When rotation and revolution are reversed, the critical value of eccentricity increases, when the rotation and revolution are in the same direction, the critical value of eccentricity decreases.

Taking the air intake pipe in the engine as the target of the research, the software STAR-CDE is adopted to build a three-dimensional simulation model for the air intake pipe in the engine T12V190 with the aim to solve the problems of air input deficiency, Combustion deterioration and performance reduction of one cylinder caused by the non-uniformity. Moreover, the non-uniformity of the flux of air intake of the air intake pipe is mainly studied and analyzed through a calculation on the CFD of the inner flow field of the three dimension of the air intake pipe in the engine T12V190. In addition, a retrofit design with multiple schemes is made based on the cavity structure of the original mold for the air intake pipe. Finally, through a comparison among the three selected designs, a more feasible retrofit designing scheme and a designing thought on the air intake pipe in the engine with directional significance are got.

In this paper an experimental setup was built to investigate jet flow normal to a confined rectangular multiphase crossflow. In order to achieve uniform particle distribution, the inlet and transition channel were carefully designed and adjusted. The experiments were carried out with 2 test conditions, with Rec/Rejet of 7.9 × 104/3.1 × 104 and 7.0 × 104/1.8 × 104. Four classes of particles were used in both of the test conditions. The planar gas flow field and particle distribution on the symmetric cross section were measured by DPIV system. Mean fluid velocity results and transient flow visualization images were used to analyze the jet influence on the gas flow field. In the transient images of some classes of particles, vortex structures were found to be similar but not exactly the same to the free jet structure. A new set of arithmetic was developed to distinguish particle spots from noisy raw images. The results getting from this arithmetic reveals the time-average particle concentration on the jet influence. The analysis proved that the jet control method may set a gas barrier in the flow field to influence the particle distribution. Such an effect is diameter-selective. The experimental results showed a good prospect on the application of wall jet control method in inertia separator.

Formula Student Car (FS) is an international race car design competition for students at universities of applied sciences and technical universities. The winning team is not the one that produces the fastest racing car, but the group that achieves the highest overall score in design, racing performance. The arrangement of internal components for example, predicting aerodynamics of the air intake system is crucial to optimizing car performance as speed changes. The air intake system consists of an inlet nozzle, throttle, restrictor, air box and cylinder suction pipes (runners). The paper deals with the use of CFD numerical simulations during the design and optimization of components. In this research article, two main steps are illustrated to develop carefully the design of the air box and match it with the suction pipe lengths to optimize torque over the entire range of operating speeds. Also the current intake system was assessed acoustically and simulated by means of 1-D gas dynamics using the software AVL-Boost. In this manner, before a new prototype intake manifold is built, the designer can save a substantial amount of time and resources. The results illustrate the improvement of simulation quality using the new models compared to the previous AVL-Boost models

Fuel price crisis has caused people to demand a car that is having a low fuel consumption without compromising the engine performance. Designing a naturally aspirated engine which can enhance engine performance and fuel efficiency requires optimisation processes on air intake system components. Hence, this study intends to carry out the optimisation process on the air intake system and airbox geometry. The parameters that have high influence on the design of an airbox geometry was determined by using AVL Boost software which simulated the automobile engine. The optimisation of the parameters was done by using Design Expert which adopted the Box-Behnken analysis technique. The result that was obtained from the study are optimised diameter of inlet/snorkel, volume of airbox, diameter of throttle body and length of intake runner are 81.07 mm, 1.04 L, 44.63 mm and 425 mm, respectively. By using these parameters values, the maximum engine performance and minimum fuel consumption are 93.3732 Nm and 21.3695×10-4 kg/s, respectively. This study has fully accomplished its aim to determine the significant parameters that influenced the performance of airbox and optimised the parameters so that a high engine performance and fuel efficiency can be produced. The success of this study can contribute to a better design of an airbox.
