Abstract

Influence of adding cationic surfactant (Ethoquard O12) with a consentration of 50 ppm on water flow around a cylinder in a range of Reynolds number Res between from 64 to 600 was investigated by using LDV and PIV. At Res =300, the flow with the surfactant formed a stagnant zone, which appeared periodically, in front of the cylinder expanding along the axial direction. The period of the appearance was about 120 [s]. The periodic flow structure was visualized by the measurements of velocity fluctuation. The development of the stagnant zone in front of the cylinder induced the expansion of a low speed flow area near the side of the cylinder.
