Flow-Sound Interaction Mechanism of Two Side-by-Side Cylinders in Cross-Flow

Computation of Flow Behind Three Side-by-Side Cylinders of Unequal/Equal Spacing

This paper aims to simulate unstable gap flows of three side-by-side cylinders unequally/equally spaced at T1/d = 1.5 and T2/d = 1.6 in a uniform cross flow (Re=300). The simulation is carried out using ANSYS Flotran 7.0. A mesh-independent study is conducted on a single cylinder at Re=100. The Strouhal number and wake flow characteristics compare well with experimental results. Simulation of t...

Two interacting cylinders in cross flow.

Cylindrical structures in a group are frequently seen on land and in the ocean. Mutual flow interaction between the structures makes the wake very excited or tranquil depending on the spacing between the structures. The excited wake-enhancing forces in some cases cause a catastrophic failure of the structures. This paper presents results of an experimental investigation of Strouhal number (St),...

Spatially Varied Flow Profiles in a V-Shaped Side-Channel

Aiaa 2002-3297 Interference between Two Side-by-side Cylinders in Hypersonic Rarefied-gas Flows

Hypersonic rarefied-gas flows near two side-byside cylinders have been studied numerically with the direct simulation Monte-Carlo technique under transitional rarefied-gas-flow conditions (Knudsen numbers from 0.0167 to 10). Strong influences of the geometrical factor (ratio of distance between cylinders to cylinder diameter) and the Knudsen number on the flow structure (the shape of shock wave...
