Abstract: Pressure loss plats an important role for engine performance, therefore, it is
very necessary for air intake manifold designer to do the simulation and test for it. A
standard for simulation has been discussed pared with the testing results which
show that the standard is applicable for air intake manifold pressure loss simulation. For
validation, a manifold has been applied for simulation and testing correlation.
Key words: Air intake manifold, pressure drop, HyperMesh
1 Introduction:
Simulation has been proved that it is a very powerful tool for design, especially for
intake and exhaust manifold design of automotive industry with the purpose of saving time,
money and other costs. Consequently, a lot of panies have developed
their own method for CAE prediction. As one of the panies ponent
suppliers, MAHLE also defined our own standard for simulation and testing for every
product [1], and test bench as well for simulation correlation. As for the air intake manifold,
here, the simulation and testing methods are presented. Here the H
