- Abstract
In this paper, fluent numerical simulation is used to solve the air flow in the 90 bend pipe with RNG epsilon model. The vortex and the secondary flow loss in the bend can be greatly reduced by adding a proper deflector. In this paper, 7 deflectors are respectively arranged along the radial direction of the elbow. According to numerical simulation, we find the flow of a single 90 degree guide plate at the 2# position (0.5D) is best. The loss is reduced by 39.7% compared to the pressure drop without adding any deflector.
