Numerical investigation of flow past 17-cylinder array of square cylinders

In this work, flow past 17-cylinder array is simulated using the two-dimensional lattice Boltzmann method. Effect of gap spacings (0.5 ≤ gx* ≤ 3, 0.5 ≤ gy* ≤ 3) and Reynolds number (Re = 75 - 150) is analyzed in details. Results are presented in the form of vorticity contours plots, time-histories o...
