چکیده

This paper presents experimental and numerical study with the objective of exploring the effect of suction control on vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of a bridge deck. The vertical and torsional responses of the model with or without suction control during this experiment were measured. The results demonstrate that the suction decreases the vibration amplitudes. The suction holes arranged on the undersurface near the leeward of the model has the best effect. To study the mechanism of the suction control, the aerodynamic stability of the model is analysed by the forced vibration method. The results demonstrate that the aerodynamic stability of the model is increased by the suction control.

Numerical Simulation of the Incompressible Laminar Flow Over a Square Cylinder
Simulation of fluid flow over a square cylinder can be performed in order to understand the physics of the flow over bluff bodies. In the current study, incompressible laminar flow over a confined square cylinder, with variable blockage factor has been simulated numerically, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The focus has been on vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of the cylinder. Vorticity...
متن کاملElimination of vortex streets in bluff-body flows.
We present an effective technique for suppressing the vortex-induced vibrations of bluff bodies by eliminating the von Kármán street formed in their wake. Specifically, we find that small amounts of combined windward suction and leeward blowing around the body modify the wake instability and lead to suppression of the fluctuating lift force. Three-dimensional simulations and stability analysis ...
متن کاملExperimental Investigation of the Effect of Splitter Plate Angle on the Under-Scouring of Submarine Pipeline Due to Steady Current and Clear Water Condition
Submarine pipelines are appropriate method for transmission of oil and gas from sea bed. Free spans may occur due to the natural uneven seabed or by under-scouring. Vortex Induced Vibration (VIV) can happen in such free spans at high Reynolds number. Resonance occurs if the frequency of vortex shedding is close to the pipeline’s natural frequency leading to its fatigue that can break the pipeli...
