Shear Parameter

Extensive laboratory experiments were carried out to investigate the uniform-shear flow approaching a circular cylinder. The aim was to present the Strouhal number (St)- Reynolds number (Re) diagrams over a broad range of the shear parameter K (0 ≤ K ≤ 0.25) and at higher values of Re (600 ≤ Re ≤ 1600). An image processing technique, in conjunction with flow visualization studies, was used to secure more quantitative depictions of vortex shedding from the cylinder. The Strouhal number increases with increasing shear parameter. The drag coefficient decreases with increasing Re; also, Cd decreases as the shear parameter K increases.

Special Cases

Uniform shear flow of an incompressible inviscid fluid past a two-dimensional smooth concave body is studied; a stream function for resulting flow is obtained. Results for the same flow past a circular cylinder or a circular arc or a kidney-shaped body are presented as special cases of the main result. Also, a stream function for resulting flow around the same body is presented for an oncoming flow which is the combination of a uniform stream and a uniform shear flow. Possible fields of applications of this study include water flows past river islands, the shapes of which deviate from circular or elliptical shape and have a concave region, or past circular arc-shaped river islands and air flows past concave or circular arc-shaped obstacles near the ground.
