Abstract
In this work, a ghost cell immersed boundary method is applied to the numerical simulation of a uniform flows over a circular cylinder and two circular cylinders in tandem arrangement. The Navier-Stokes equations are solved using an implicit fractional step method employed on collocated arrangement variables. Immersed boundary method permit the use of structured Cartesian meshes to simulate flows involving complex boundaries. The shedding of vortices and flow interference between two circular cylinders in tandem arrangement are investigated numerically. The calculations are validated against the experimental and numerical results obtained by other researchers to prove the accuracy and effectiveness.
