Transitions in the flow patterns and aerodynamic characteristics of the flow around staggered rows of cylinders.

A two-dimensional numerical study of flow across rows of identical square cylinders arranged in staggered fashion is carried out. This study will unreveal complex flow physics depending upon the Reynolds number (Re) and gap spacing (g) between the cylinders. The combined effect of Reynolds number an...
