Unsteady Axisymmetric Stagnation Flow on a Circular Cylinder

Unsteady, axisymmetric stagnation flow about a circular cylinder is examined when the far-field flow is a periodic function of time with a fixed time average and an oscillatory part of prescribed amplitude and frequency. Solutions are computed for arbitrary values of the Reynolds number, quantifying the effects of surface curvature, and a frequency parameter based on the period of the far-field...

Simulation of Unsteady Laminar Flow around a Circular Cylinder

Abstract In this paper, unsteady laminar flow around a circular cylinder has been studied. Navier-stokes equations solved by Simple C algorithm exerted to specified structured and unstructured grids. Equations solved by staggered method and discretization of those done by upwind method. The mean drag coefficient, lift coefficient and strouhal number are compared from current work at three diffe...

Characteristics of vortices shed from a circular cylinder and an inclined flat plate

Vortex shedding from a circular cylinder and from an inclined flat plate is computed with a finite volume CFD code with RNG k-ε turbulence model. The wake behind the circular cylinder consists of two trains of vortices of equal strengths. Dependence of vortex patterns on Reynolds numbers at Re between 10 and 10 is investigated. Flow over the inclined flat plate is asymmetric and unequal charact...

experimental investigation of flow characteristics around an elliptic cylinder near a flat plate

the flow characteristics around an elliptic cylinder with an axis ratio of ar=2 located near a flat plate were investigated experimentally. the elliptic cylinder was located on the inside and outside a turbulent boundary layer region whose thickness (δ) is 0.38b. the reynolds numbers based on the height of the cylinder cross-section were 15000 and 30000. measurements of mean velocity and turbul...
