Bluff Body Aerodynamics
Publication: Journal of Structural Engineering
Volume 112, Issue 7
Abstract
Four additional sets of aerodynamic data are presented for 4 bluff shapes. The data include aerodynamic lift, drag, and pitching moment in a range of the angle-of-attack from zero to 180 deg. The Reynolds number was 105,000. The shapes are each symmetrical about one axis. The basic dimension is a circular cylinder of five inches diameter. The data are considered representative of ice forms on cylindrical shapes, cables, and electric power transmission conductors. Structural designers may use this data for analysis and design.
