3-D numerical simulation of an automotive air intake system: A study of the Ford Ka 2015 case

3-D numerical simulation of an automotive air intake system: A study of the Ford Ka 2015 case

An analysis of the air flow through an automotive air intake system considers the effects of the external temperature and the performance decay by time of usage. The domain of the simulation corresponds to the geometry of a physical component applied to a commercial vehicle, the 2015 model year of t...
