Lift and drag forces on a square prism with a (splitter) plate are
experimentally investigated by force measurements with a load cell. Results
showed that drag and lift coefficients are independent of Reynolds number for Re = 9700 – 36500 at 0°, 45°, 90°, 135° and 180°. Drag coefficient at 0° is obtained as 2.02 for the square prism alone, and
1.04 for the square cylinder with splitter plate. Maximum drag reduction for
the square cylinder with the plate is 50% as compared to the square cylinder at
0° and 15°. For α < 30° and α > 114°, drag coefficient of a square prism with
splitter plate is smaller than that of the square prism alone. At Re = 20000, lift
and drag coefficients significantly change with increasing attack angle.

AYIRICI PLAKALI BİR KARE PRİZMA ETRAFINDAKİ AKIŞTA HÜCUM AÇISININ ETKİSİ

Öz

Farklı hücum
açılarında akış ayırıcı plakalı bir kare prizmaya etki eden kaldırma ve
sürükleme kuvvetleri yük hücresiyle ölçülerek deneysel olarak incelenmiştir.
Sonuçlar, kaldırma ve sürükleme katsayılarının Re = 9700 – 36500 aralığında 0°,
45°, 90°, 135° ve 180° hücum açıları için Reynolds sayısından bağımsız olduğunu
göstermiştir. Sürükleme katsayısı 0° hücum açısında tek kare prizma için 2.02 ve ayırıcı
plakalı kare durumunda ise 1.04 olarak elde edilmiştir. Plakalı kare için
maksimum sürükleme katsayısındaki azalma 50% olarak 0° ve 15°’de elde edilmiştir.  α <30° ve α >114° aralıkları için,
plakalı karenin sürükleme katsayısı sade karenin sürükleme katsayısından
küçüktür. Re = 20000’de, kaldırma ve sürükleme katsayılarının önemli derecede hücum
açısına bağlı olarak değiştiği görülmüştür.
