摘要
Flow-induced fluctuating lift (C-Lf) and drag (C-Df) forces and Strouhal numbers (St) of a cylinder submerged in the wake of another cylinder are investigated experimentally for Reynolds number (Re)=9.7 x 10(3)-6.5 x 10(4). The spacing ratio L* (=L/D) between the cylinders is varied from 1.1 to 4.5, where L is the spacing between the cylinders and D is the cylinder diameter. The results show that C-Lf,C- C-Df and St are highly sensitive to Re due to change in the inherent nature of the flow structure. How the flow structure is dependent on Re and L* is presented in a flow structure map. Zdravkovich and Pridden (1977) observed a 'kink' in time-mean drag distribution at L* approximate to 2.5 for Re > 3.1 x 10(4), but not for Re <= 3.1 x 10(4). The physics is provided here behind the presence and absence of the 'kink' that was left unexplained since then. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
