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 of drag and lift coefficients and power spectrum of lift coefficient. Six distinct flow regimes are identified for different gap spacings and Reynolds numbers: steady flow regime, single bluff body flow regime, non-fully developed flow regime, chaotic flow regime, quasi-periodic-I flow regime and quasi-periodic-II flow regime. Chaotic flow regime is the mostly observed flow regime while the single bluff body flow regime rarely occurs for this configuration. It is observed that drag force along each cylinder in 17-cylinder array decreases in the streamwise direction for fixed Reynold number and gap spacing. C1 and C2 cylinders experience the maximum drag at small gap spacing and Reynolds number. Also the Reynolds number is found to be more effective on flow characteristics as compared to gap spacings. |
