An experiment was performed to analyze the flow-induced vibration behavior of a foursquare fix-supported flexible plate exposed to the axial flow within a rigid narrow channel. The large-amplitude and narrow-band vibration phenomenon was observed in the experiment when the flow velocity varied with the range of 0–5 m/s. The occurring condition and some characteristics of the large-amplitude and narrow-band vibrations were investigated.
► FIV of a foursquare fix-supported flexible plate exposed to axial flow was studied. ► Special designed test section and advanced measuring equipments were adopted. ► The narrow-band vibration phenomenon with large amplitude was observed. ► Line of plate's vibration amplitude and flow rate was investigated. ► The phenomenon and the measurement error were analyzed.
