Flow Analysis of a Shrouded Aerosol Sampling Inlet

Article Preview

Abstract:

A shrouded aerosol sampling inlet has been designed from high-speed aircraft. The sampling inlet was conducted using the CFD to perform a flow simulation. The shroud diameter is 150 mm. The inlet is located 180mm from the shroud entrance plane. The shroud is 300 mm long. Results are presented graphically, showing the shrouds have provided significant improvements in flow characteristics. Straighten the streamlines of gas of sampling inlet for flow angles up to five degrees. It is suggested that CFD simulation can be useful for improving the optimum a shrouded aerosol sampling inlet.
