Natural and Forced Vortex Shedding

  • Conference paper
Unsteady Turbulent Shear Flows

Abstract

Natural and forced vortex shedding has been investigated experimentally over circular cylinders in the VPI water tunnel. Flow visualizations and Laser-Doppler Anemometry have been employed. Results indicate that in the lock-on region there are three distinct modes of vortex shedding. Most interesting is the second mode, namely simultaneous shedding of wake vortices and the third mode, shedding at the subharmonic of the driving frequency.
