 .
- Optional:
Enter a descriptive
Name.
-
Select a stagnation inlet as the support for the intake fan.
-
From the
Type options, select
Intake.
-
From the Direction specification options, specify how
you want to define the direction of the intake air.
| Option | Description |
|---|
| Normal |
Defines intake air flow normal to the intake fan. |
| Specified |
Defines intake air flow in a direction other than normal to the
intake fan. |
-
Specify the Stagnation gauge pressure at the intake
inlet.
-
For manually specified intake direction, specify the axis that serves as the
direction of air flow. You can select an axis in the global axis system, a local
axis system defined for your model geometry, or an axis system that you specify
from the 3D area.
-
Specify the
Temperature at the boundary.
-
From the Turbulence specification options, select the
specification method and then specify the individual turbulence parameters in
the fields that appear. For more information, see About Turbulence.
-
To define a constant pressure jump across the fan interface:
-
From the Pressure jump options, select
Constant.
-
From the Pressure jump field, specify the
pressure change across the fan.
-
To define a pressure jump that varies according to the volume flow rate:
-
From the Pressure jump options, select
Fan curve.
-
Specify pairs of Volume flow rate and
Pressure jump values in the table that
appears.
-
Click OK.
