Near-Wake Characteristics and Acoustic Resonance Excitation of Crimped Spirally Finned Cylinders in Cross-Flow
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper presents an experimental investigation of the near-wake flow characteristics for isolated crimped spirally finned cylinders in cross-flow and its influence on the generated sound pressure during flow-excited acoustic resonance. Four crimped spirally finned cylinders are investigated, which have pitch-to-root diameter ratio (p/Dr) ranging between 0.384 ≤ p/Dr ≤ 1. A new equivalent diameter equation (Dc) has been developed to better capture the vortex shedding frequency emanating from the crimped spirally finned cylinders. The addition of crimped spiral fins reduces the coherence of the vortex shedding process as compared to that of a bare cylinder. Moreover, the addition of crimped spiral fins causes an elongation in the vortex formation region, as well as induces a larger velocity deficit in the near-wake. Reduction in the pitch-to-diameter ratio (p/Dr) leads to a progressive increase in the strength and coherence of the vortex shedding process. It also results in a gradual reduction in the vortex formation length and velocity deficit. The near-wake flow characteristics of the crimped spirally finned cylinders inherently affect the sound pressure during flow-excited acoustic resonance. Furthermore, the helical fins impose an asymmetrical inclination of the acoustic particle velocity. This hinders the flow-acoustic coupling, leading to a weakened energy transfer between the flow and sound fields. The findings of this investigation provide better understanding of the complex flow-sound interaction mechanism from crimped spirally finned cylinders in heat exchanger tube bundle.

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.
