Abstract:The flow past a fixed finite-length circular cylinder, the axis of which makes a nonzero angle with the incoming stream, is studied through fully-resolved simulations, from creeping-flow conditions to strongly inertial regimes. The investigation focuses on the way the body aspect ratio χ (defined as as the length-to-diameter ratio), the inclination angle θ with respect to the incoming flow and the Reynolds number Re (based on the cylinder diameter) affect the flow structure past the body and therefore the hydr… Show more
