Y型柱体绕流特性及风荷载

通过风洞实验研究了二种典型尺寸的二维Y型柱体在不同风向角下的绕流特性及风荷载。实验结果表明:当风向顺Y型柱体某一肢时主要是来流脉动引起柱体较弱横向振动;当风向顺Y型柱体两肢分角线时则由涡脱落而引起柱体强烈的横向振动。来流湍流度的增加使脉动升力和阻力都大幅度增加,然而却使涡脱落引起的振动相对减弱。

圆角化对受迫振动方柱绕流特性影响机理分析

为分析圆角化对低雷诺数下受迫振动方柱绕流特性的影响机理, 对Ansys Fluent软件进行二次开发, 即通过用户自定义函数中的DEFINE_ CG_MOTION宏对柱体周期性受迫振动的函数进行编程, 并对流场计算域进行区域划分以便利用动网格技术中动态层法实现柱体受迫振动, 从而实现对受迫振动柱体绕流流场的流固耦合模拟.在雷诺数Re = 200时, 考虑方柱截面不同圆角的影响, 对均匀流作用下5种圆角化r/D = 1/2, 1/4, 1/5, 1/8和0受迫振动方柱的绕流进行数值模拟, 分析了这5种参数下受迫振动方柱的升阻力系数、尾流涡量和锁定区间的变化规律, 澄清了圆角化对受迫振动方柱稳定性的影响机理.研究表明: 与尖角方柱相比, 圆角化方柱升阻力系数有了明显的减小, 且升力、阻力系数随圆角增大而减小; 低振幅比下圆角方柱的涡旋脱落模式均为2S模态, 涡旋尾迹变窄; 锁定区间范围基本关于F = 1对称, 锁定区间的变化趋势与圆柱类似.      

并列双椭圆柱绕流的格子Boltzmann-虚拟区域方法的模拟研究

采用格子Boltzmann-虚拟区域方法对并列双椭圆柱绕流进行了模拟研究。首先,通过与并列双圆柱的结果进行对比,验证了数值方法的有效性。其次对雷诺数为200时两种间距(g=0.5a和2.0a,g为柱体表面间距,a为椭圆长轴)的情况进行了研究,考察了椭圆长轴与短轴之比,即α值对柱体升阻力系数及涡结构的影响。研究发现,与圆柱相比,对于g=0.5a椭圆柱的升阻力系数可能出现两种变化,一是升阻力随时间演化较规则,接近周期性;二是流场可能长时间偏向于其中一个椭圆柱,这些变化与α的值有关。对于g=2.0a,两个椭圆柱后的某一区域内会出现四列涡街,经过一段时间,四列涡街又会演化成两列向两侧扩张的涡街。     

串列双圆柱绕流下游圆柱两自由度涡致振动研究

数值研究了串列双圆柱绕流下游圆柱两自由度涡致振动问题，研究发现：(1) 双自由度的圆柱振幅峰值及出现振峰的频率比都比单自由度的大；(2) 尾流圆柱中的升力远大于均匀来流的，而阻力却相反；(3) 下游圆柱的位移响应对于频率比的变化没有均匀来流中的"敏感"；(4) 尾流中，在频率比1.16和0.87之间，出现了明显的"拍"现象，即圆柱的振幅响应包含不同的频率，而在均匀来流中，并无明显的"拍"现象. 采用ALE方法，计算网格采用H-O非交错网格系统，结合分块耦合方法. N-S方程的对流项和扩散项分别采用三阶迎风紧致格式和四阶中心紧致格式离散. 圆柱振动采用弹簧柱体阻尼器模型，柱体的振动方程采用龙格-库塔法求解. 通过模拟柱体和流体之间的非线性耦合作用，成功地捕捉到了"拍"和"相位开关"等现象.     

剪切来流作用下串列布置双圆柱流致运动分析

基于任意拉格朗日-欧拉方法,将四步半隐式特征线分裂算子有限元与动网格技术相结合,并发展了一种求解流致振动问题的算法。首先,通过求解文献中经典涡激振动算例来验证本文方法的正确性;然后,着重分析了雷诺数Re=160与间距比Lx/D=5.5工况,折减速度与剪切率两个关键参数对串列排布双圆柱两自由度流致运动特性的影响。计算结果表明:随折减速度的增加,上游圆柱振幅变化与单圆柱工况一致;但是,下游圆柱顺流向振幅的变化较为剧烈,且横流向的振幅曲线中会出现两个峰值。随剪切率的增加,双圆柱体两个方向的频率锁定区间会扩大,尤其对顺流向的振幅影响较大。另外,双圆柱体的运动轨迹以‘8’字形与‘O’形为主。最后,分析了剪切来流对双圆柱体之间互扰机制的影响,以及下游圆柱的涡致动力响应特征所发生的变化。     

带控制片方柱绕流的非定常数值模拟

对高雷诺数下带控制片的方体(在方柱之前放置一小尺度的柱形薄片)非定常绕流进行了数值模拟。数值模拟方法采用RNG重整化群紊流模型，SIMPLE算法，在非定常计算中引入双重时间步方法，将方体和控制片区域作为求解域的一部分作整体求解。结果表明，控制片与方柱之间距离的不同，使得控制片所形成的涡被抑止或产生卡门涡街，从而对柱体侧面边界层的分离发生影响，产生三种典型的流态，柱体时均阻力系数相对于无控制片的情况迅速减小，当控制片偏离柱体轴心时，柱体升力系数迅速增大，偏心至柱体外壁面附近达到极大值。阻力系数达到最小值后将产生跳跃式的增大，而升力系数在达到最大值后也将产生跳跃式的减小。     

串列双锥柱绕流流动特性的大涡模拟研究

利用大涡模拟研究了雷诺数Re = 3900下串列双锥柱在间距比L/D_m = 2 ~ 10下的升阻力特性及三维流动结构. 研究发现: 上游锥柱在后方形成的两个展向不对称回流区, 使其后方压力分布不对称. 上游锥柱发展的上洗、下洗和侧面剪切层作用在下游锥柱的附着点位置不同是上游和下游锥柱时均阻力系数和脉动升力系数变化的主要原因, 串列双锥柱间流动结构随间距比变化可分为三种状态: 剪切层包裹状态, 过渡状态及尾流撞击状态. 剪切层包裹状态. 上游锥柱的自由端主导来流在下游锥柱迎风面影响范围广, 上游锥柱剪切层完全包裹住下游锥柱, 从而抑制下游锥柱后方回流区形成, 导致下游锥柱时均阻力系数降低; 尾流撞击状态; 上游锥柱尾流得到充分发展, 其回流区大小随间距比增大不再发生变化, 上游锥柱尾流出现周期性脱落, 撞击在下游锥柱表面, 从而使脉动升力系数大幅增加, 最大脉动升力系数较单直圆柱提升约20.7倍; 过渡状态, 此时时均阻力系数和脉动升力系数均会较剪切层包裹状态增加. 该研究可以为风力俘能结构群列阵布局提供理论支持.      

串列布置三圆柱涡激振动频谱特性研究

对串列三圆柱体双自由度涡激振动问题进行了数值计算, 并分析了雷诺数、固有频率比和约化速度对串列三圆柱体结构动力响应及频谱特性的影响. 研究发现: 雷诺数、频率比对上游圆柱的振幅和流体力系数的影响较小. 中游圆柱频率锁定区域随着雷诺数的增大而增大, 其动力响应受上游圆柱尾流的影响较大, 但频率比的影响较小. 同时, 流体力系数在约化速度较小时受雷诺数和频率比的影响较大. 另外, 下游圆柱的振幅和流体力系数受雷诺数及频率比的影响较大. 雷诺数、频率比和约化速度对圆柱流体力系数能量谱密度(PSD)曲线中主峰幅值、频谱成分及波动性的影响较大. 流体力系数PSD曲线波动性的增强, 导致圆柱运动轨迹会从"8"字形转变成不规则形状. 当频率比为2.0时, 上游圆柱尾流出现P$+$S模式, 导致其发生非对称运动, 且升、阻力系数PSD曲线主峰重合. 最后, 激励荷载平均功率值随约化速度的变化趋势与对应的结构动力响应的变化类似. 在同一约化速度区间内, 结构振动响应的强弱与位移的平均功率值成正比. 对不同约化速度区间内的升力系数功率谱密度分析时, 振动频率比($f_{s}/f_{n, y})$对结构振动响应的影响更大.      

NUMERICAL INVESTIGATION ON FLOW-INDUCED VIBRATION OF TWO CYLINDERS IN TANDEM ARRANGEMENTS AND ITS COUPLING MECHANISMS

对雷诺数Re= 100 条件下串列双圆柱的流致振动进行了数值模拟. 圆柱的质量比m^*均为2.0,间距比L/D 为2.0 5.0. 考虑两种工况:(a) 上游圆柱固定,下游圆柱可沿横流向自由振动;(b) 上、下游圆柱均可沿横流向自由振动. 结果表明:无论上游圆柱静止或者振动,下游圆柱横向振幅明显大于单圆柱的. 工况(b) 的下游圆柱最大振幅要大于工况(a) 的,这是由于两圆柱均振动时,两圆柱之间耦合作用增强,上游圆柱的尾流和下游圆柱的振动之间“相互调节” 作用显著. 对工况(b) 的下游圆柱振动和间隙流之间的作用机制进行了详细的研究,发现当上游圆柱脱落的自由剪切层重新附着于下游圆柱上并且完全从间隙之间通过时,下游圆柱的振幅最大.     

Interference effect of two equal‐sized square cylinders in tandem arrangement: With planar shear flow

Numerical simulations have been performed for flow past two equal‐sized square cylinders in tandem arrangement subjected to incoming planar shear flow. Effect of L/d ratio and the shear parameter has been studied. The range of L/d ratio (ratio of center‐to‐center distance (L) to cylinder width (d)) is varied from 2 to 7 and the non‐dimensional shear parameter (K) is varied from 0.0 to 0.4 in steps of 0.1. For all the cases the Reynolds number (Re) based on centerline velocity and cylinder width is fixed at 100. The results are compared with that of isolated square cylinder with uniform flow. Strouhal number decreases with increasing shear parameter. There are more than one shedding frequency at high shear parameters and L/d ratios. The mean drag coefficient is decreased with shear parameter and lesser than that of the single cylinder. The root mean square (RMS) value of both lift and drag coefficients is higher for the downstream cylinder for all values of shear parameter. With increasing L/d ratio, for both lift and drag, the RMS value increases and then decreases for upstream cylinder, whereas it continuously increases for the downstream cylinder. The stagnation point is moved towards the top leading edge with increasing shear. The critical L/d ratio, which is defined as the distance between two cylinders, beyond which the vortex shedding from the upstream cylinder occurs, decreases with increasing shear parameter.

低雷诺数下串列布置双圆柱涡激振动特性研究

基于四步半隐式特征线分裂算子有限元方法, 对串列布置双圆柱双自由度涡激振动问题进行了数值模拟计算, 并分析了间距比、剪切率、频率比以及折减速度4个参数对圆柱结构动力响应的影响. 研究发现: 不同固有频率比与剪切率对下游圆柱振动幅值影响较大, 然而对上游圆柱振动幅值影响较小. 上游圆柱在两个自由度方向达到最大值的折减速度不同, 然而下游圆柱基本同步. 上游圆柱共振区的范围明显宽于下游圆柱, 同时上游圆柱较下游圆柱会更早进入与退出共振区间. 另一方面, 双圆柱主要在锁定区间完成相位的转变, 随频率比增大能量从流体传递到柱体的速度会减慢, 导致圆柱体结构完成从同相到反相的转变速度会减慢. 剪切来流工况下, 当间距比大于3.5时, 升力与位移相位差会出现“平台期”. 当间距比超过临界值时, 随着折减速度的增大, 流体力功率谱密度曲线出现的杂频会增多, 导致出现能量“反哺”现象. 最后, 在均匀来流工况下, 升阻力功率谱密度曲线中主频率值呈两倍关系, 然而随着剪切率的增加, 流体力功率谱密度曲线会基本重合.      

Force coefficients and Strouhal numbers of three circular cylinders subjected to a cross-flow

In this paper, wind tunnel experiments were conducted to measure the mean force coefficients and Strouhal numbers for three circular cylinders of equal diameters in an equilateral-triangular arrangement when subjected to a cross-flow. These experiments were carried out at five subcritical Reynolds numbers ranging from 1.26 × 10⁴ to 6.08 × 10⁴. The pressure distributions on the surface of the cylinders were measured using pressure transducers. Furthermore, the hot-wire anemometer was employed to measure the vortex shedding frequencies behind each cylinder. Six spacing ratios (l/d) varying from 1.5 to 4 were investigated. It is observed that for l/d > 2, the upstream cylinder experiences a lower mean drag coefficient compared with the downstream cylinders. The minimum values of the drag coefficient for the downstream cylinders occur at l/d = 1.5 and l/d = 2, because there is no vortex shedding from the foregoing cylinders. Also, the value of the pressure coefficient behind the upstream cylinder reduces by increasing l/d. Moreover, by decreasing the value of l/d, the Strouhal number for the upstream cylinder increases. It can be concluded that the flow pattern and aerodynamic coefficients are basically dependent on l/d; in other words, decreasing l/d results in an increase in the effects of the flow interference between the cylinders.     

Flow-induced oscillation of two circular cylinders in tandem arrangement at low Re

Results are presented for flow-induced vibrations of a pair of equal-sized circular cylinders of low nondimensional mass (m^*=10) in a tandem arrangement. The cylinders are free to oscillate both in streamwise and transverse directions. The Reynolds number, based on the free-stream speed and the diameter of the cylinders, D is 100 and the centre-to-centre distance between the cylinders is 5.5D. The computations are carried out for reduced velocities in the range 2≤U^*≤15. The structural damping is set to zero for enabling maximum amplitudes of oscillation. A stabilized finite element method is utilized to carry out the computations in two dimensions. Even though the response of the upstream cylinder is found to be qualitatively similar to that of an isolated cylinder, the presence of a downstream cylinder is found to have significant effect on the behaviour of the upstream cylinder. The downstream cylinder undergoes very large amplitude of oscillations in both transverse and streamwise directions. The maximum amplitude of transverse response of the downstream cylinder is quite similar to that of a single cylinder at higher Re beyond the laminar regime. Lock-in and hysteresis are observed for both upstream and downstream cylinders. The downstream cylinder undergoes large amplitude oscillations even beyond the lock-in state. The phase between transverse oscillations and lift force suffers a 180 jump for both the cylinders almost in the middle of the synchronization regime. The phase between the transverse response of the two cylinders is also studied. Complex flow patterns are observed in the wake of the freely vibrating cylinders. Based on the phase difference and the flow patterns, the entire flow range is divided into five sub-regions.     

Vortex Induced Vibrations of a Pair of Cylinders at Reynolds Number 1000

Vortex induced vibrations of two equal-sized cylinders in tandem and staggered arrangement placed in uniform incompressible flow is studied. A stabilized finite element formulation is utilized to solve the governing equations. The Reynolds number for these 2D simulations is 1000. The cylinders are separated by 5.5 times the cylinder diameter in the streamwise direction. For the staggered arrangement, the cross-flow spacing between the two cylinders is 0.7 times the cylinder diameter. In this arrangement, the downstream cylinder lies in the wake of the upstream one and therefore experiences an unsteady inflow. The wake looses its temporal periodicity, beyond a few diameters downstream of the front cylinder. The upstream cylinder responds as an isolated single cylinder while the downstream one undergoes disorganized motion. Soft-lock-in is observed in almost all the cases.     

Wall proximity effects on the effectiveness of upstream control rod

Two dimensional flow over a circular cylinder with an upstream control rod of same diameter is simulated in unbound condition and in wall bounded conditions. The cylinders are placed at various heights from the wall and the inter-distance between cylinders is also varied. The control rod is subjected to different rotation rates. It is found that, in unbound condition, rotating the control rod decreases the critical pitch length (S/D_cr) and increases the drag and Strouhal number of the main cylinder. In presence of plane wall, the shielding provided by the separated shear layers from the control rod in cavity regime is deteriorated due to deflection of shear layers which results in higher drag and large fluctuation of lift coefficient. However, in wake impingement regime, the binary vortices from the control rod are weakened due to diffusion of vorticity and hence, the main cylinder experiences a lower drag and small lift fluctuations than that of unbound condition. The critical height of vortex suppression (H/D_cr) is higher in cavity regime than that of wake impingement regime due to the single extended-bluff body like configuration. The rotation of control rod energizes the wall boundary layer and increases the critical height of vortex suppression. Increasing the rotational rate of control rod decreases the drag force and reduces the amplitude of lift fluctuation. Analysis of the wall shear stress distribution reveals that it suffers a sudden drop at moderate height where the normal Karman vortex shedding changes to irregular shedding consisting of single row of negative vortices. Modal structures obtained from dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) reveal that the flow structures behind the main cylinder are suppressed due to wall and the flow is dominated by the wake of control rod.
