With the advancement of computers and CFD software, using the 3-Dimensional simulation of the flow within intake manifold is growing fast these days.
CFD code FLUENT was used for the steady state simulation and 1D wave code was used to obtain the boundary conditions for unsteady state simulation.
Summary of the literature review: For steady state simulations CFD codes FLUENT and STAR-CD has been widely used in the literature.
For most of the integrated 1D and 3D-CFD simulations, 3 to 4 engines cycles were used to determine real flow conditions of the engine operation.
CFD can perform the base of virtual simulation of the experimental test.

Using CFD simulation programs allows researchers to study and analyze the characteristics of fluid flow without creating the real physical model.
The lubricant and solid properties used in the CFD model are listed in Table 1.
The simulation results indicate the significant effects of the surface roughness on the fluid flow in the TEHL problem as presented in Fig. 3.
Specifically, the pressure obtained by the CFD model varies across the entire film thickness.

The flow-force on poppet valve in the case of the converging flow is simulated and studied by CFD.
Simulation results represent that the traditional formula for computing the flow-force can be used only in the certain range, so the formula is modified based on the simulation result.
Geometry of Poppet Valve Through the CFD flow simulation result, the relationship of the valve port structure and flow pattern is studied from a flow field microscopic perspective.
Fig6 is the simulation result of the flow-force for the different pressure difference and the different opening position.
Figure 7 is simulation result and value computed by the modified formula of the flow-force.

CFD Research Methods
CFD is a computational fluid dynamics for short, with the development of computer technology, all the issues involved fluid flow, heat exchange, molecular transport and other phenomena, can now be solved by means of CFD [2].
Three-dimensional digital modeling The CFD model study starting in the induced draft fan outlet and ends at GGH entrance.
Meshing and boundary conditions The grid is geometric forms of expression CFD models also support simulation and analysis.
Mesh quality has an important impact on the CFD computational accuracy and efficiency [5].
For complex CFD problems, mesh generation is extremely time-consuming and error-prone, time mesh generation is often greater than the time required for CFD calculations.

Abstract.
In this paper, the local wind field of a container terminal in Shanghai of China was simulated by CFD technique, and the corresponding spatial distribution of wind velocity, turbulence intensity and wind profile were investigated in detail.
The results of the simulation suggest that the local surrounding wind field of the investigated container terminal is remarkably influenced by the surrounding container ship and container piles.
Fig.2 Schematic of a container terminal Fig.3 Meshed inner region and the definition of wind angle The computational domain of CFD was divided into two regions, i.e. the inner region and outer region, with the inner one surrounded by the outer one.
These simulation results suggest that it is not reasonable to use a constant power function index for the entire local wind field surrounding the port machinery.

Abstract.
For this reason, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods are used.
Introduction The advantages of using Computational fluid dynamics, CFD is that the researcher can study more on complex problem that is impossible to be done experimentally and the cost to do the project is also decrease as the researcher just need to set-up the simulation.
