Modelling BC for Air intake snorkel of automobile

May 15, 2006, 06:24

I have problems in defining the BC for vehicle intake snorkel. This is the part from which atmospheric Air is sucked in the Engine through Air cleaner. my domain is before air cleaner i.e the snorkel part.

Hence i have only the inlet velocity what can be possible boundaryconditions for this particular case?

Dear Sir, I am very interested if You have found an answer for Your problem. Since few days I am plying with very simple model of intake system and I am trying to set velocity inlet as BS for snorkel.
