Flow past a smooth circular cylinder at high Reynolds number (Re=3.6 x 106) which covers the upper-transition regime has been investigated numerically by using Open source Field Operation and Manipulation (OpenFOAM) package. OpenFOAM is a free, open source Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software package. The numerical model has been set up as two dimensional (2D), transient, incompressible and turbulent flow. A standard high Reynolds number k-ε turbulence model is included to evaluate the turbulence. The objective of the present work is to set up the case using pimpleFoam solver which is an Unsteady Reynolds Averaged Simulations (URANS) model and to evaluate the model for its conformance with available literature and experiments. The results obtained are compared with experimental and numerical data.

This paper presents numerical results for flow-induced oscillations of an elastically supported circular cylinder, which is immersed in a high Reynolds number flow. The flow-induced oscillations of the circular cylinder at subcritical Reynolds numbers have been investigated by many researchers, and the interested phenomena with respect to the oscillations have been found in a wide range of the Scruton number. For the flow-induced oscillation of the circular cylinder with high mass ratio, it is well-known that there is the peak value of amplitudes at near the critical reduced velocity. Therefore, we computer flow-induced oscillations of a circular cylinder with a mass ratio of 8, which is placed in a high Reynolds number flow, by three-dimensional simulation, and the numerical results are compared with the results of flow-induced oscillations of the circular cylinder immersed in a subcritical Reynolds number flow.
