Vortex-shedding flows past a circular cylinder for 200≤ Re ≤ 5000 are numerically simulated with the PowerCFD code, using a finite volume method and an unstructured grid system, developed by the author. The simulation is peformed by solving the unsteady 2-D Wavier-Stokes equations with both no model and turbulence model. The resulting Reynolds number dependence of the Strouhal number and of the drag and lift coefficients is compared with both experiments and previous numerical results. It is found that, in the range of 200≤ Re ≤ 5000 the calculation method with a turbulence model is capable of producing reasonably more accurate results than that with no model for the main practically relevant parameters such as Strouhal number, drag and lift coefficients.

Recently, thanks to advanced computational power and numerical techniques, it is made possible to analyze the flow around moving bodies using computational fluid dynamics techniques. In those simulations, moving mesh techniques should be able to represent both the body motion and boundary deformation which are frequently encounterd in fluid-structure interaction and/of six degree-of-freedom problems. There are several moving mesh techniques such as the Laplacian operator based, tension spring based and elastic deformation based methods. In the present study, the Laplacian operator based method was utilized and the results were validated. For the validation, the flow around an oscillating two-dimensional cylinder was simulated and analyzed.

Flows around two oscillating cylinders in side-by-side arrangement at Re=185 are simulated using an immersed boundary method. The cylinders oscillate vertically in opposite directions in uniform cross-flow. We describe flow patterns, drag and lift forces by varying distance between two cylinders $(1.4{\leq}g{\leq}2.2,\;1.0{\leq}g{\leq}1.8)$ and oscillating frequency ratios $(f_e/f_o=0.8,\;f_e/f_o=1.0\;and\;f_e/f_o =1.2)$. Wake patterns, drag and lift coefficients are affected by both of frequency ratio and gap between two cylinders. Near wakes of each case are classified with the definition of previous studies.

In those simulations, moving mesh techniques should be able to represent both the body motion and boundary deformation, which are frequently encountered in fluid-structure interaction and/or six degree-of-freedom problems. In the present study, the staggered loosely coupling algorithm was used for fluid-structure interaction and the Laplacian operator based technique was used for moving mesh. For the verification of the developed computational method, the flow around a two-dimensional cylinder was simulated and analyzed.

Direct numerical simulations of flow over a circular cylinder are performed at two different Reynolds numbers (Re=220 and 300) that correspond to three-dimensional instabilities of mode A and mode B, respectively, to investigate the characteristics of drag and lift at these Reynolds numbers. The drag and lift coefficients are measured locally along the spanwise direction and their characteristics are studied in detail. The variation of total drag in time is large at Re=220, and the total drag becomes minimum when vortex dislocation occurs in the wake. The drag and lift variations in space are also closely associated with the evolution of vortex dislocation at this Reynolds number. At Re=300, vortex dislocation is not found in the wake and temporal variations of drag and lift are much smaller than those at Re=220, but their spatial variations are quite large due to the near-wake secondary vortices existing in the mode B instability.

This study has investigated the turbulent flow around a square cylinder by using LES (large eddy simulation). Numerical simulations are performed for turbulent flow fields with Re = 22,000. The computed results are in good agreement with existing computational and experimental data. The time-averaged and phase-averaged turbulent statistics around a square cylinder are discussed. Total 20 phase bins extracted from one cycle period showed detailed wake structures of the phase-averaged flow field. The center of Karman vortex sheets did not deviated ${\pm}0.5$ from centerline of square cylinder while moving downstream.

In this paper, the unsteady behavior of the viscous flow field past an impulsively started elliptic cylinder is studied numerically. In order to analyze flow field, we introduce vortex particle method. The vorticity transport equation is solved by fractional step algorithm which splits into convection term and diffusion term. The convection term is calculated with Biot-Savart law, the no-through boundary condition is employed on solid boundaries. The diffusion term is modified based on the scheme of particle strength exchange. The particle redistributed scheme for general geometry is adapted. The flows around an elliptic cylinder are investigated for various attack angles at Reynolds number 200. The comparison between numerical results of present study and experimental data shows good agreements.

We investigate two-dimensional laminar flow around rectangular cylinders placed in a uniform stream. Numerical simulations are performed, using finite volume method, in the ranges of $50{\leq}Re{\leq}150$ and $0.1{\leq}W/H{\leq}1.0$, where Re and W/H are the Reynolds number and the width-to-height ratio, respectively. The immersed boundary method is used to handle the rectangular cylinder in a rectangular grid system. Comparisons with the previous results show good agreement in Strouhal number, drag and lift coefficient. The present study reports the detailed information of flow structure at different width-to-height ratios in the ranges of $50{\leq}Re{\leq}150$.

Numerical simulations are performed for the thermal fluid flow around a circular cylinder, and the particle trajectories are calculated to investigate the particle motions and deposition characteristics. We aim to understand the effects of three important parameters (particle Stokes number, temperature difference in the flow and on the cylinder surface, and thermal conductivity ratio between the fluid and the particles) on the deposition efficiency. The results show that the thermophorectic effect is insignificant for particles with large Stokes numbers, but it affects particles with small Stokes numbers. The deposition efficiency increases with the increase in temperature difference between the flow and the cylinder or the decrease in ratio of thermal conductivity of the particles to the fluid. When thermophoresis becomes significant, the particles are deposited even on the back side of the cylinder.
