Optimization Study of Guide Vanes for the Intake Fan-Duct Connection Using CFD

The connection between an intake fan and a ventilation shaft must be designed in such a way that it minimizes the energy waste due to singularity losses. As a result, the questions of which radius of curvature to use and if guide vanes have to be included need to be answered. In that case, the varia...
