Popis: The modeling of atmospheric ice accretion on duplex cylinders received a limited attention, with modeling carried by Wagner and Qing et al. The publicly available experimental data about the ice accretion on the duplex cylinders is limited to experiments of Qing et al. and Veerakumar et al. When comparing the data of Wagner and Qing et al. with the results of Veerakumar et al., the major difference is the airflow behavior in the wake of the windward cylinder, the extent of the wake and recirculation bubble, and the velocity distribution in the wake. Thus, its needed to study the effect of the turbulence model on the airflow behavior of duplex cylinders, with focus being the behavior of the wake of the windward cylinder. This study reports the simulation results of the complex airflow behavior of duplex circular cylinder bundle obtained using several turbulence models employed by commercial CFD code.
