Cross-flow past a pair of nearly in-line cylinders with the upstream cylinder subjected to a transverse harmonic oscillation
چکیده انگلیسی

An experimental investigation is presented for the cross-flow past a pair of staggered circular cylinders, with the upstream cylinder subject to forced harmonic oscillation transverse to the flow direction. Experiments were conducted in a water tunnel with Reynolds numbers, based on upstream velocity, U, and cylinder diameter, D, in the range 1440⩽Re⩽1680. The longitudinal separation between cylinder centres is L/D=2.0, with a transverse separation (for the mean position of the upstream cylinder) of T/D=0.17; the magnitude of the harmonic oscillation is 0.44D peak-to-peak and the nondimensional frequency range of the excitation is 0.05⩽feD/U⩽0.44. Flow visualization of the wake-formation region and hot-film measurements of the wake spectra are used to investigate the wake-formation process. An earlier study showed that stationary cylinders in this nearly in-line configuration straddle two very different flow regimes, the so-called shear-layer reattachment (SLR) and induced separation (IS) regimes. The present study, demonstrates that oscillation of the upstream cylinder causes considerable modification of the flow patterns around the cylinders. In particular, the wake experiences strong periodicities at the frequency of the oscillating cylinder; in addition to the usual fundamental lock-in, both sub- and superharmonic resonances are obtained. It is also observed that, although the flow exhibits regions of SLR and IS for excitation frequencies below the fundamental lock-in, for frequencies above the lock-in range the flow no longer resembles either of these flow regimes and vortices are formed in the gap between the cylinders.
