| Summary: | The paper presents the numerical results obtained with the use of the ANSYS FLUENT commercial code for analysing the flow structure around a two rectangles in line surface-mounted bluff bodies immersed in a boundary layer. The simulation of a configuration with a flow around objects has been done using both the steady and unsteady approaches. Effects of the inflow boundary layer thickness on the flow field, wall-shear stress and the grid resolution accuracy in predicting periodic vortex shedding from two tandem arrangement bodies are examined. It has been observed that the periodic vortex shedding is considerably reduced with an increase in the δ/H parameter. |
