Özet

This study is an investigation and comparison of the flow characteristic around triangular grooved and bare cylinders, positioned horizontally in shallow water using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV). Throughout the experiment, Reynolds number, Froude number and water height have been selected as 5000, 0.27 and 90 mm, respectively. To observe the effect of height (h) on the flow structure, cylinder is positioned at h: 0 mm, 15 mm, 22.5 mm, 30 mm, 37.5 mm, 45 mm, 52.5 mm and 60 mm. Moreover, grooved angle (a) has been changed from 0 degrees, 80 degrees, 85 degrees, 90 degrees and 95 degrees in shallow water to investigate the effect of grooved angle. The results show that the vortex forms vary according to the groove angle. It is seen that the vortex, the cylinders especially positioned at h: 0 mm and h: 60 mm, are affected owing to the surface and bottom effect. Furthermore, the largest Reynolds stress is observed at the h: 37.5 mm while the largest wake region is observed at the h: 52.5 mm. Also, the maximum Drag Coefficient (C-d) and Turbulence Kinetic Energy (TKE) are observed at h: 0 mm, a: 90 degrees for grooved cylinder and at h: 37.5 mm for bare cylinder, respectively.
