“…This type of flow is often encountered in engineering applications, e.g., the airflow around solar panels, flow around vehicles, and the cooling of electronic components. Many experimental and computational studies have been carried out with sharp-edged plate, circular and square cylinders as a bluff body to investigate the influence of the gap size on the wake characteristics, such as works of Shinneeb and Balachandar [1], Shinneeb et al, [2], Martinuzzi et al, [3], Bosch et al, [4], Essel et al, [5] and Nasif et al, [6,7]. In these studies, the bluff bodies were oriented horizontally and vertically at different heights above the bed.…”
