Correct way to export duct or pipe

Hi,

I have a quite simple question I guess :-)

I want to export and simulate a inlet duct for an airbox. I know that I need an inlet and outlet patch in the simulation later on, but I am not sure what kind of surface or body that they need to be?

My duct is just a simple body with 1 mm wall thickness that I can export from Fusion 360.

Do the inlet and outlet just need to be a patch/surface without any thickness?

And do I have to export all parts one by one or as one stl/obj file combining everything.

Thanks,
Marius
