Abstract
The purpose of this study, is to investigate the aeroelastic stability and effect of vortices resulting from passing air over cylindrical shells in three-dimensional condition. Here, the Naiver-Stokes equations in the integral form are considered studying the air flow based on the finite-volume method. The ANSYS Fluent software is used to study the fluid-solid interaction effect. The shear stress transport (SST) turbulence model is utilized to simulate the turbulent viscosity. Effect of different parameters such as two cylindrical shells alignment or two cylinders diameter ratio are considered. The results indicate that the vortices can play a significant role on the aeroelastic stability of the cylindrical shell.
