“…For cases where the mean flow does not reattach on the obstacle surfaces, b/c <∼ 2.3 [8], a comparison of results from experimental studies over a wide range of s/c > 10 and different end conditions suggest this expectation holds for 0.4 < b/c < 2.3 [7,9,10,11,12,13,14]. For a given b/c, reported (blockage corrected) values for the midspan mean base pressure, sectional drag and shedding frequency from these studies agree within experimental uncertainty and the flow about the midspan can be considered two-dimensional.…”
