Özet
The control of the unsteady flow structure formed behind a cylinder placed horizontally in shallow water was analyzed experimentally using bare cylinder and cylinders with cavities having square and rectangular geometries, respectively. Reynolds number, Froude number and water height had been chosen as 5000, 0.27 and 90 mm, respectively and also these parameters were kept constant for all experiments. To consider the influence of height (h), the cylinder level was located at various heights from h: 0 mm to 60 mm. Furthermore, cavity angle (a) had been selected from 0 degrees, 80 degrees, 85 degrees, 90 degrees and 95 degrees to consider influence of cavity angle on flow. With the help of Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV), average velocity vectors were measured in two dimensions at many points simultaneously in a planar flow area. The results uncovered that large negative counter was observed at h: 37.5 mm in bare cylinder as well as cylinders having square and rectangular cavities at h: 45 mm. Also, no negative counter was observed for cylinders having rectangular cavity at h: 0 mm and a: 90 degrees and 95 degrees due to the bottom effect. Due to surface effects, a foci point was formed in all cylinders where close to the surface and close to the base. Two foci points and a saddle point were seen as they moved away from the surface for all cylinders. Also, the smallest vortex region was observed for cylinders having rectangular cavity at h: 37.5 mm and a: 90 degrees and 95 degrees in whole cylinders. Also, the highest drag coefficient (Cd) value was obtained for cylinder having square cavity at h: 52.5 mm and a: 80 degrees while the highest drag coefficient value was obtained for cylinder having rectangular cavity at h: 37.5 mm and a: 95 degrees.
