| A coupled Larangian-Eulerian numerical scheme, in which Navier-Stokes equations are solved with the vorticity-velocity formulation, is developed for calculation of flow in a multiply-connected domain. It is used for modeling the laminar flow past two square cylinders in a side-by-side arrangement. An influence of the gap size between the bodies on the wake pattern and hydrodynamic loads is analyzed. The results obtained are used to ground the scheme of flow control near a square prism that utilizes the small gap in the centre.The optimal characteristics of the control scheme are derived. |
