Abstract
AbstractIn the present investigation, a potential flow model based on panel method has been developed for calculation of two dimensional separated flows past square and rectangular cylinders. Free vortex lines are assumed to emanate from the points of separation that converge downstream of the body. The converged wake shape is iteratively obtained by integrating the velocity vectors at the collocation points. For solving separated flow past square and rectangular cylinders, four different versions of the solver have been developed for a wide range of incidence, namely, for zero, low, moderate and high angles of incidence. For validation of computed results, experimental investigations have been carried out in a low speed wind tunnel to obtain the surface pressure distribution on square cylinder and rectangular cylinder over a range of angles of incidence. Comparison is reasonably good.
