Condensation and Radiation Modeling Of an Automotive Headlamp

Abstract

An automotive headlamp is disclosed to heat fluctuation together with low air exchange the chances of humidity entering the headlamp will therefore enhance the risk for condensation to form on the inner surface of the lamp. The automotive firm today is considerably competitive and tends to focus more on reducing expenses. The consumers demanding high advanced features and styling characteristics likewise transparent optical plastics and low energy dissipating lamps. Because of these reasons dew is formed and it will cause visibility problem from outside. Thus it is of great importance for the car manufactures to be able to simulate the condensation before in the design stage and thereby also reduce the cost. This work describes the performing thermal flow simulation on headlamp by using Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to calculate the dew point temperature. Thus the dew point temperature is correlated with the values found out from analytical methods.
