Keywords: liquid-liquid ejector, flow field distribution, turbulent dissipation rate, CFD simulation.
CFD modeling Ejector consists of the nozzle, the suction section, the mixing section and the diffuser.
In the simulation, boundary conditions of the working and secondary flow inlets are set as “velocity- inlet” condition.
The appropriate angle is about 24° after further simulation.
Conclusions In this paper, a CFD simulation is developed to study the hydrodynamic characteristics of ejectors with CFD software Fluent 6.3.

In the past decades, little research was carried on about the APR, especially the simulation studies.
In the present simulation, the shear-stress transport (SST) - turbulence model is usually adopted as the turbulence model.
Calculations with different mesh distributions and quantities are carried out to demonstrate that the simulation results are grid independent.
Another reason is that, as known to all, there exists variance in the CFD simulation.
A few conclusions can be drawn based on the simulation results and shown as follows: 1.

Keywords: Gasoline engine, Intake port, CFD numerical simulation, Discharge coefficient.
In this paper, three-dimensional CFD calculation and structural optimization were used to research the performance of gasoline engine.
The results of the simulation of flow field characteristics analysis show that the simulation and experimental results are in good agreement.
As can be seen from fig.7, the discharge coefficient obtained by simulation and experiment are consistent, but the discharge coefficient obtained by simulation is slightly less than the experiment.
CFD simulation results were analyzed to evaluate the intake system, and an improved scheme is put forward.
