| Summary: | Many do not know and disregard the function of the exhaust system. In their
mind, the exhaust system is just a system to dispose the exhaust gases; the result of the
combustion process, out of the engine. In fact, the exhaust system also plays an
important part in improving the engine’s performance.
This analysis is dedicated to analyze the flow characteristics inside the exhaust
manifold. The analysis is started by modeling the geometry of the exhaust manifold
using I-DEAS. Then, the model is meshed using GAMBIT. Fina lly, the analysis is
carried out using FLUENT after determining the boundary conditions, materials and
other parameters needed for simulation.
The results of this analysis are the velocity, temperature and pressure profile
inside the exhaust manifold. Through this research, some ways of improving the design
of the exhaust manifold has been found.
