Design optimization of an engine air intake
Design optimization of an engine air intake
A novel geometry modeling technique is defined for the optimization of pressure recovery through a two-dimensional subsonic diffuser based on that of an F1 race car airbox. The airbox design procedure involves considering the expansion of the air entering the airbox coupled with a bend through 90 degrees, both of which are discussed separately before uniting the two in a final optimization study. The geometry modeling technique discussed allows for potentially radical designs with high pressure recoveries.

Abstract
A novel geometry modeling technique is defined for the optimization of pressure recovery through a two-dimensional subsonic diffuser based on that of an F1 race car airbox. The airbox design procedure involves considering the expansion of the air entering the airbox coupled with a bend through 90 degrees, both of which are discussed separately before uniting the two in a final optimization study. The geometry modeling technique discussed allows for potentially radical designs with high pressure recoveries.
