Abstract

In the present paper, the effect of twist-serrated fins around a bare tube on the Aeolian tone was experimentally investigated. We measured the intensity of velocity fluctuation, spectrum of velocity fluctuation, coherence of Karman vortex in the spanwise direction, and SPL of the aerodynamic noise generated from finned tubes with various fin pitches. An Aeolian tone induced by Karman vortex shedding was observed in the case of a finned tube. When the pitch of the fins decreased, the peak level of the sound pressure spectrum decreased. A correlation analysis between the flow field and Aeolian tone was carried out.
