Steady state simulation of flow over a throttle body
Geometery :
Geometery is imported to Converge Cfd as stl input file.
Simulation Time Parameters:
Start Time:0 Cycle
End Time:15000 cycles
Boundary Conditions:
Inlet Pressure:150000Pa
Outlet pressure: 100000Pa
Elbow and Throttle Plate: Wall Type Boundary Condition(law of wall)
Where as on inlet as Inflow other as Outflow
Material:
Air is Used as a Fluid material while simulating flow over Throttle Plate.
Mesh:Mesh Size taken is 2e-3 m in x y and Z direction where as Fixed embedding of 3 layers and scale of 2 is applied near the throttle plate boundary.
Results:
Velocity:
Peak Velocity is obtained at the throttle boundary which is around 320 m/s.whereas the lowest velocity is obtained behind the throttle plate which is due to the flow obstruction.
Pressure:
Peak Pressure is obtained at the inlet of the throttle plate while there are areas around the throttle plate which experiences the lowest pressure around 0.66 bar.
Other Results:
Total Cell count And Mass Flow rate:
Total No of Cell and Mass Flow rate plots are shown Below:
