Abstract
The numerical simulation of the flow field in the engine compartment of a car is the basis for the evaluation and research of the air flow characteristics in the engine compartment. In this paper, the computational fluid simulation software STAR-CCM+ was applied to simplify the vehicle model of a rear-mounted exhaust. The surface wrapper and surface remesher were used to obtain the whole vehicle surface mesh. Combining with the vehicle wind tunnel model was generated the volume mesh based on Trim mesh sub-regional method. Then, the finite element model of the car engine compartment w...
