Abstract:
Flow around a bluff body near a solid wall, such as a circular or rectangular cylinder placed in a uniform flow near a solid boundary, is of fundamental importance. The reduction in the aerodynamic sound is a very important issue, for example, flow induced noise in tall buildings, bridges, high-speed trains, windmills, and computer cooling fans. This type of problem has been addressed extensively both experimentally and theoretically in the past. The flow past a long rectangular cylinder is usually associated with vortex shedding, which can be affected strongly by the presence of a nearby wall. Flow past a solid body induces vortices and the vortex acceleration will cause sound. In the present study, the aerodynamic sound generated by flow past a rectangular cylinder of various configurations was investigated experimentally in a low-speed quiet wind tunnel. A numerical study using large scale eddy Simulation technique has also been conducted to compute the sound generation due to vortex shedding. Experimental results are compared with the numerical predictions. [Work sponsored by the China Scholarship Council.]
