Numerical Simulation of Low Reynolds Number Incompressible Flow over Two Side-by-Side Circular Cylinders
Abstract: A second-order accurate unstructured collocated implicit finite volume method based on the primitive-variable formulation is used to study the flow field around a pair of cylinders arranged in side-by-side configuration. Numerical simulations are carried out for long time on a high-resolution mesh to obtain the appropriate evolution of the overall flow field and vortex structure of the wakes. A wide range of gaps between the cylinders is considered over a …
