Abstract

Abstract: The numerical simulation and fluid dynamics simulation of the internal flow field and its influence mechanism of a commercial vehicle intake system were carried out aim at studying the flow field characteristics of the intake system. The internal and surface pressure, velocity, and turbulent kinetic energy distribution of intake systems under the rated operating conditions and three high torque conditions of the engine were analyzed. The simulation results showed that with the increase of the mass flow of the intake air, the pressure distribution on the surface of the intake system increased, and the pressure drop of the inlet and outlet increased rapidly. With the increase of the mass flow, the scale and number of vortexes in the intake system increased sharply. The distribution of turbulent kinetic energy is more related to the velocity field distribution. However the internal turbulent energy distribution of the intake system is concentrated under one condition. As the intake air mass flow rate drops from 1, 500 kg/h to 764 kg/h, the pressure drop of the intake system drops from 2, 858, 566 Pa to 721, 411 Pa; the average turbulent energy decreases from 5.41 m 2 /s 2 ; to 0.896 m 2 /s 2 . In this paper, the research on the flow field of the engine intake system aims to provide research directions for the early stage of the structural design of the intake system of large agricultural vehicles.
