Abstract: In an internal combustion engines exhaust system plays a vital role in the enhancement of the combustion efficiency. A well designed exhaust manifold increases the performance of an IC engines. The designing of exhaust manifold is a complex procedure and is dependent on many parameters. The present work is fundamentally based. on the investigation of modelling of exhaust manifold of a multicylinder four stroke SI engine using computational analysis. The work is majorly focused on reducing .the backpressure at the outlet and also by increasing the velocity of the exhaust gases at the outlet of exhaust manifold system, which is leading to increase the performance of the engine. Commercially available CFD software tool is used for carrying out the present analysis. Flow through the exhaust manifold is analyzed using pressure and mass flow boundary conditions.
