An experimental study of flow around a circular cylinder with and without end plates in ground effect

Flow and force characteristics have been experimentally studied for a circular cylinder, with and without end plates, placed near and parallel to a moving ground, over which no boundary layer developed to Interfere with the cylinder. Mean drag and lift measurements, surface oil-flow visualisation, a...
