Abstract The paper presents a study of various versions of PANS approach for turbulence simulation using a flow around a cylinder at Reynolds number Re = 3900 as an example. The considered models were implemented in the in-house CFD package. The influence of the method of determining the parameter f k on the flow behind the cylinder was studied. The first method assumed a constant value of f k. In the second method, the f k value depended on the local computational mesh scale and the shear scale.

CFD simulations of crossflows around a 2-D circular cylinder and the resulting vortex shedding from the cylinder are conducted in the present study. The capability of the CFD solver for vortex shedding simulation from a circular cylinder is validated in terms of the induced drag and lifting forces and associated Strouhal numbers computations. The validations are done for uniform horizontal fluid flows at various Reynolds numbers in the range 103 to 5×105. Crossflows around the circular cylinder beneath a free surface are also simulated in order to investigate the characteristics of the interaction between vortex shedding and a free surface at Reynolds number 5×105. The influence of the presence of the free surface on the vortex shedding due to the cylinder is discussed.

The numerical simulation of the flow past a circular cylinder forced to oscillate transversely to the incident stream is presented here for a fixed Reynolds number equal to 100. The 2D Navier-Stokes equations are solved with a classical Finite Volume Method with an industrial CFD code which has been coupled with a user subroutine to obtain an explicit staggered procedure providing the cylinder displacement. A preliminary work is conducted in order to check the computation of the wake characteristics for Reynolds numbers smaller than 150. The Strouhal frequency fS, the lift and drag coefficients CL and CD are thus controlled among other parameters. The simulations are then performed with forced oscillations f0 for different frequency rations F = f0/fS in [0.50–1.50] and an amplitude A varying between 0.25 and 1.25. The wake characteristics are analysed using the time series of the fluctuating aerodynamic coefficients and their FFT. The frequency content is then linked to the shape of the phase portrait and to the vortex shedding mode. By choosing interesting couples (A,F), different vortex shedding modes have been observed, which are similar to those of the Williamson-Roshko map.

In this paper, the lattice Boltzmann Method is applied to simulate incompressible steady flow around a cylinder. The simulation model is based on D2Q9 lattice model and Guo boundary condition. Different Reynolds number and cylinder position in the flow field is considered to acquire corresponding velocity, vorticity, pressure and kinetic energy. The conclusions demonstrated in this paper could be useful for the project like construction of ocean platform, cooling tower or high chimney and so on.
