Flow around two tandem cylinders
 

Hello...
I am trying to simulate flow around two tandem circular cylinders. I am not able to replicate the results as reported in literature. The results are in well confirmation with the literature when spacing between the cylinders is increased. However, with the same case setup, I am unable to obtain results for less spacing (say spacing between cylinders is 2).
The flow is having a Reynolds number of 100.
Solver used is pisoFoam.
Simulation is 2D and laminar. The schemes being used are linear schemes.
Kindly suggest some measures.

Thank You.

Have you checked the mesh dimensions for both the cases?
Can you post comparison plot for your result here?

Hey

Could you post some of your results? Maybe a line plot (velocity ...etc.) ...

Thank you for your kind reply..
May I know which results should I post? I mean the velocity, pressure colour plots or cl, cd, cp plots?
TD P { margin-bottom: 0cm; direction: ltr; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); }TD P.western { }TD P.cjk { }TD P.ctl { }P { margin-bottom: 0.21cm; direction: ltr; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); }P.western { }P.cjk { }P.ctl {*

Hey

Could you share the mesh (an image) and maybe the contour plots of velocity & pressure? (For both simulations)

What do you mean by this line..

Which result you are talking about that you should mention with comparison plot. Otherwise it is difficult to guess what you are comparing.
