Computational Investigation of Drag Reduction on a Rotationally Oscillating Cylinder
The reduction of drag on a circular cylinder in two-dimensional incompressible ow, achieved using oscillatory body rotation, is investigated to reveal the physics responsible for the force reduction. Flow is computationally simulated at Reynolds numbers of 100, 300, and 15 000 for a small group of sinusoidal body rotations to gain an understanding of the mechanisms which can control forces in s...
متن کاملCritical Drag Investigation for an Axisymmetric Projectile with Choked Base Bleed at High-Subsonic and Transonic Regime Using SST K-? Model
In the following paper, the effects of a choked jet exhausted from the base of a non-lifting body on its total and base drags at sub-sonic and transonic regimes has been numerically investigated. Having surveyed the results of some turbulence models and after comparing with experimental results, an appropriate turbulence model i.e. SST K-?, has been chosen and this model has been used in the su...
متن کاملUnsteady computational fluid dynamics modeling of free-flight projectile aerodynamics
This paper describes a new multidisciplinary computational study undertaken to model the flight trajectories and the free-flight aerodynamics of both a finned projectile at supersonic velocities and a spinning projectile at subsonic speeds with and without aerodynamic flow-control. Actual flight trajectories are computed using an advanced coupled computational fluid dynamics (CFD)/rigid body dy...
متن کاملEXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF DRAG REDUCTION ON AHMED MODEL USING A COMBINATION OF ACTIVE FLOW CONTROL METHODS
Aerodynamic drag is an important factor in vehicles fuel consumption. Pressure drag which is the main component of total drag is a result of boundary layer separation from vehicle surface. Flow control methods are applied to avoid or at least delay separation. Depending upon whether these methods consume energy to control the flow or not, they are called active or passive control methods. In th...
متن کاملNumerical Investigation on the Effect of Tunnel Height on Drag Reduction in a High Speed Trimaran
There are different methods to reduce drag in high speed hulls. One of these methods is a change in the shape of the body by adding longitudinal side tunnels. In this paper it has been attempted to determine the influence of the tunnel height on hydrodynamic characteristics of the hull to achieving an optimum shape for the tunnel. To achieve this purpose, numerical simulation of the problem has...
