Uniform Flow around a Cylinder with Ansys Fluent
Ansys Fluent is utilized to understand the steady state flow around a circular cylinder. The case study describes the equations of a superpositioning of doublet uniform flow and derive the equations for the stagnations points. It will then describe the real world problem and describes the Von- Karmann vortices that is produced for low Reynolds number which is due to the effect of viscosity.
