Vortex Shedding From Two Circular Cylinders in a Staggered Arrangement
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Vortex shedding from two circular cylinders of equal diameter in a staggered configuration was studied experimentally in the subcritical Reynolds number regime, for Re = 3.2×104–7.4×104. The dimensionless centre-to-centre pitch ratio of the staggered cylinders was ranged from P/D = 1.125–4.0, and the incidence angle was varied in small increments from α = 0°–90°. The behaviour of the Strouhal number measurements was broadly classified according to whether the cylinders were closely, moderately, or widely spaced, corresponding to P/D < 1.5, 1.5 ≤ P/D ≤ 2.5, and P/D > 2.5, respectively. For closely spaced staggered configurations, the flow around the cylinders is similar to a single bluff body, and only a single Strouhal number is measured. For moderately spaced cylinders, two distinct Strouhal numbers are measured when α > 30°, but there is considerable scatter in the Strouhal data when α < 30°. For widely spaced cylinders, the Strouhal numbers remain close to that of a single circular cylinder, in contrast to the behaviour of the aerodynamic forces. Evidence of the outer lift peak is seen in the power spectra for the downstream cylinder.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
