Two phase flow-induced vibrations of a circular cylinder (4th report, Cross-flow vibration response and vortex shedding)

Effects Of Frequency Variation At Inlet Flow On The Vortex Shedding Frequency Behind A Circular Cylinder

In many applications the flow that past bluff bodies has frequency nature (oscillated) and it is not uniform. This kind of flow has effects on the formation of vortex shedding behind bluff bodies. In this paper the flow around a circular cylinder was numerically simulated. The effects of frequency variation at inlet flow on the vortex shedding frequency were investigated. The transient Two-Dime...

Vortex-Induced Vibrations of an Inclined Cylinder in Flow

Thermal Field Around a Circular Cylinder with Periodic Vortex Shedding

A numerical study is carried out to investigate the laminar forced convection heat transfer from a circular cylinder. The fluid is assumed to be incompressible, the Reynolds number ranged from 0.1 to 1000, and the Prandtl number was equal to 0.7. The range of study includes heat transfer in creeping flow (Re40). The equations were discretized by a control-volume-based finite difference techniqu...

Suppression of vortex-induced vibration of a circular cylinder using suction-based flow control

Keywords: Flow around a circular cylinder Vortex-induced vibration Flow control Steady suction Mitigation of vortex-induced vibration a b s t r a c t In the present study, a flow control method is employed to mitigate vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of a circular cylinder by using a suction flow method. The VIV of a circular cylinder was first reproduced in a wind tunnel by using a spring–mass s...

Suppression of Vortex Shedding from a Circular Cylinder by using a Suction Flow Control Method

An experimental study was conduct to suppress the vortex shedding from a circular cylinder by using a suction flow control method. The suction flow control was accomplished using two suction holes located on the test cylinder model at an angle of 90.0 degrees in relation to the oncoming flow direction. In addition to measuring the pressure distributions around the test model, a high-resolution ...
