For many embedded engine systems, the intake duct geometry introduces flow distortion and unsteadiness, which must be understood when designing the turbomachinery components. The aim of this work is to investigate the capabilities of modern computational methods for these types of complex flows, to study the unsteady characteristics of the flowfield, and to explore the use of proper orthogonal decomposition methods to understand the nature of the unsteady flow distortion. The unsteady flows for a range of S-duct configurations have been simulated using a delayed detached-eddy simulation method. Analysis of the conventional distortion criteria highlights the main sensitivities to the S-duct configuration and quantifies the unsteady range of these parameters. The unsteady flowfield shows signature regions of unsteadiness, which are postulated to be related to the classical secondary flows as well as to the streamwise flow separation. A proper orthogonal decomposition of the total pressure field at the duct exit identifies the underpinning flow modes, which are associated with the overall total pressure unsteadiness distributions. Overall, the unsteady distortion metrics are not found to be solely linked to a particular proper orthogonal decomposition mode, but are dependent on a wider range of modes.
