Abstract
The design of an intake for a gas turbine engine involves CFD-based investigation and experimental assessment in an intake test rig. In both cases, the engine is represented by a mass flux sink, usually positioned a few fan radii aft of the real fan face. In general, this approach is sufficient to analyze intake geometry for low distortion at the fan face, because in this case the interaction of the fan with the inlet flow can be neglected. Where there are higher levels of distortion at the fan face, the interaction could become more significant and a different approach would be preferable. One alternative that takes into account the interaction in such cases includes the fan in the analysis of the intake, using either a steady or unsteady flow model approach. However, this solution is expensive and too computationally intensive to be useful in design mode. The solution proposed in this paper is to implement a new boundary condition at the fan face which better represents the interaction of the fan with the flow in the air intake in the presence of distortion. This boundary condition includes a simplified fan model and a coupling strategy applied between the fan and the inlet. The results obtained with this new boundary condition are compared to full 3D unsteady CFD simulations that include the fan.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
