Abstract

T-Junction pipes are widely used, such as in industries sector, home systems, automotive and others. For each pipe flow system are different according to the usability and perimeter. In this study, the main focus was to study the effect of inlet velocity of fluid flow in T-Junction pipe with edge fillet for dividing flow. In addition, the studies on the effects of inlet velocity of fluid flow in pipe may give the result on pressure in the pipe depends on the given velocities. CATIA V5 software is used in order to create a design of pipe. Whereas, by using this software, perimeters of the pipe have been determined and could create 3D designs. As for determine the effect of inlet velocity in pipe, simulation upon the pipe model is done by using Hyperwork software. At the end of this study, based on the simulation that has been run has shown a different result against on the three different pipes. Whereas each pipe has different values (sharp edge, edge 5mm and edge 10mm). Apart from the different edge’s value, the simulation also runs on the various value of velocities (2.56 m / s, 2.0 m / s and 1.5 m / s). Based on the three pipes, the results shows that the pipe with edge value of 10 mm gives the lowest pressure readings and velocity magnitude. Also the velocity value of 1.5 m / s that shows the lowest reading of pressure and shear stress.
