NUMERICAL STUDY OF THE EFFECT OF TAPER ANGLES AND TAPER LENGTH ON THE REDUCTION OF AERODYNAMIC DRAG
Aerodynamic drag is still one of the main challenges facing the automotive industry. The design engineers are trying to develop novel techniques that could help to control the flow and optimize the shape of a vehicle to make it able to increase the base pressure drag at the wake region. The pressure drag is one of the main contributors to the aerod...

THE EFFECT OF ROTATION RATES, CYLINDER DIAMETER AND LATERAL BOUNDARIES ON STROUHAL NUMBER IN UNSTEADY REGIMES AT DIFFERENT REYNOLDS NUMBERS
The lateral boundary conditions, rotation rates parameters, domain size, cylinder diameter, and Reynolds number are all responsible for the variation of the Strouhal number. In this study, we have varied the domain size, lateral boundary conditions, downstream locations, and the cylinder diameter at specific values of Reynolds number for stationary...
