The document outlines the setup and results of a CFD turbocharger analysis, beginning with initial concept designs created in CAD and validated through basic 3D CFD modeling using ANSYS Fluent. Results included graphical representations for comparing and selecting the best designs. Further testing was conducted on selected vane profiles to optimize performance.

1. CFD Turbocharger Analysis
Model Setup and Results

2. CFD – Initial Concepts
• Concept designs were created using CAD, these required validation
using a basic CFD model in 3D
• We used ANSYS FLUENT for all of the CFD simulations

3. CFD – Initial Concepts
• Results were plotted on graphs and 2D contour and vector plots in
order to compare and select the best designs

4. CFD – Vane Profiles
• Once concepts were selected we tested the selected vane profiles in
more detail to find the best design
