Hello guys,
I just came out with a new idea for my thesis project which is to improve the air filter system (drop-in type).
Currently I doing some basic analysis based on the current stock air filter before I proceed to my prototype air filter system.Says, I've been given an air filter which the area is 0.25m X 0.15m = 0.0375m^2.
I assumed the ρ of the air at average temperature (27.5 C ≈ 300 K) is about 1.161 kg/m^3.
We already know that, mass flow rate = (density)(volumetric flow rate) = (density)(area)(velocity)Based on the data given above, how can I determine the velocity of the air going inside the air box?
- there are several unknowns volumetric flow rate, mass flow rate
By using this equation, velocity = (volumetric flow rate) / (area) can I assume the velocity of the air is the same with the velocity of the car? (its seems like the velocity of the air (in m/s) too big.
Hope our engineers and pros may help me by solving this problem together. Thanks.***sorry for my bad language. I trying to make it clear for better understanding***
