摘要
Galloping of rectangular cylinders with and without a splitter plate is investigated experimentally in low-speed wind tunnels. Particular emphasis is placed on galloping of rectangular cylinders with a splitter plate. The paper is concerned with free- and forced-oscillation experiments. The free-oscillation experiment includes measurements of the growth rate of oscillation in galloping of rectangular cylinders with d/h = 0·2 to 6·0, where d is the depth (streamwise cross-sectional dimension) and h is the height (cross-flow dimension). The forced-oscillation experiment includes measurements of the mean and fluctuating side-face pressures on rectangular cylinders with d/h = 0·6, 1·0 and 2·0, along with flow visualization using smoke. The free-oscillation experiment shows that rectangular cylinders with a splitter plate with d/h up to 5·0 are susceptible to galloping and that galloping vanishes at a value of d/h between 5·0 and 6·0. An interpretation of the mechanism of galloping of rectangular cylinders with a splitter plate is proposed on the basis of the experimental findings obtained. Close similarity between low-speed galloping of rectangular cylinders with and without a splitter plate is mentioned. The paper also discusses the vortex excitation caused by the impinging-shear-layer instability and the vanishing circulation lag in the low-speed range. © 1991 Academic Press Limited.
