The flow behind two circular cylinders of different diameters, which were joined coaxially has been examined at the Reynolds number of 8 × 104. The detailed pressure spectral measurements indicate the shedding and the distributions of the pressure fluctuations of the vortex wakes associated with the big and small cylinders. The effect of the presence of the small vortex wake on the vortex shedding of the big cylinder and the interaction between them is presented. The wake formed behind the plane of discontinuity has been isolated and presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
