Abstract

The global frequency selection of two-dimensional vortex shedding in the flat plate wake is investigated experimentally. By performing a local stability analysis, and low-dimensional modeling based on the time-averaged mean flow velocity profiles, we have shown that the time-averaged velocity profiles give an accurate estimate of the global shedding frequency. Furthermore, we have analyzed the interaction strengths between the mean flow and the higher harmonics thereby experimentally supporting the theoretical criterion outlined previously by Sipp and Lebedev.
