Abstract
CFD is becoming very popular among the industries and the use of multiphase simulations is also increasing with more powerful CPUs and reliable CFD codes. The scope of this work is to present a mud deposition simulation methodology using CFD multiphase analysis at the CRFM of an automobile, in order to prevent low performance on the condenser or on the radiator and compromise the heat exchange performance. Mud reaches the front end of the car and results show the mud path and mud deposition on the CRFM and the blocked area.
