Wake dynamics of a cantilevered circular cylinder of aspect ratio 4
Abstract
Near-wake characteristics of a low aspect ratio ( h / d = 4 ) cantilevered circular cylinder protruding a thin laminar boundary layer were investigated both numerically ( R e = 300 ) and experimentally ( R e = 10 , 400 ). Despite the substantial differences in the investigated Re, the wake dynamics show striking similarities and appear governed by similar instability mechanisms: (i) a Kármán-like vortex shedding instability, and (ii) a …
