The advances in High Performance Computing-HPC and CPU's sizes and processing power, combined with new computational codes, which are capable of coupling different types of simulation, are the main contributors for the increasing number of the Multiphysics simulations inside the industry. Multiphysics are defined as simulations involving multiple physical models or multiple simultaneous physical phenomena. Among some examples, spray modeling is of great interest in several branches of the industry and, with the development on algorithms and codes, simulations presented reliable results, compared to experiments. This work aims to contribute to both Multiphysics and spray modelling by reproducing a rainstorm condition, focused on a vehicular application. This work objective is evaluate the possibility and feasibility to reproduce virtually rain storm condition on a highway checking water intrusion at Air Intake System - AIS and compare with physical test.
