Transport mechanisms inside the turbulent wake of a bluff body
Univ. Orléans, INSA-CVL, PRISME 8 rue Léonard de Vinci 45072 Orléans, France
Based on the recent work of Stella et al. on the bidimensional (2D) flow behind a ramp [11, 10], the present paper aims at analysing the entrainment phenomenon in a three-dimensional (3D) turbulent wake downstream of a bluff-body. Numerical and experimental data of different configurations of the Ahmed body are investigated. This study is part of a framework on the aerodynamic drag reduction for ground vehicles by defining proper and realistic control laws derived from the entrainment.
Key words: turbulent shear flow / aerodynamics / bluff body / experiment / flow control
