[http: //www.wolfdynamics.com/wiki/cylinder_vortex_shedding.pdf Flow around a cylinder]

In this [http: //www.wolfdynamics.com/wiki/cylinder_vortex_shedding.pdf pdf] you will conduct an extensive parameter study of the flow around a cylinder in order to understand the difference between a laminar and a turbulent flow from a physical point of view. For that you have to learn about the modelling differences. For that your will learn about

  • difference between a laminar and a turbulent flow
  • case setup
  • dictionaries
  • output
  • parameter study
  • post processing

You can download the case files in the following [http: //www.wolfdynamics.com/wiki/vortex_shedding.tar.gz link]
