The ow induced motions (FIM) of two rigid circular cylinders, on end linear-springs, in tandem are
studied using two-dimensional Unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (2-D URANS) simulations
veried by experimental data. Passive turbulence control (PTC) is being used in the Marine Renewable
Energy Laboratory (MRELab) of the University of Michigan to enhance FIM of cylinders in the VIVACE
(Vortex Induced Vibration for Aquatic Clean Energy) Converter to increase its efciency and power
density in harnessing marine hydrokinetic energy. Simulation is performed using a solver based on the
open source CFD tool OpenFOAM, which solves continuum mechanics problems with a nite-volume
discretization method. The simulated Reynolds number range for which experiments were conducted in
the MRELab is 30,000 oReo 105,000, which falls in the TrSL3 regime (Transition in Shear Layer), where
the shear layers are fully saturated and consequently lift is high. The amplitude and frequency results are
in excellent agreement with experimental data showing the initial and upper branches in VIV, transition
from VIV to galloping, and galloping. Vortex structures are studied using high-resolution imaging from
the CFD results showing typical 2S structure in the initial branch and both 2P+2S and 2P in the upper
branch of VIV. In the galloping branch, amplitudes of 3.5 diameters are reached before the channel stops
are hit.

1. Introduction
Elastically mounted, rigid, circular cylinders exposed to uid ow
perpendicular to their axis experience ow induced motions (FIM)
excited by the alternating vortices shed in the cylinder wake and
forming the von Krmn street. Vortex shedding occurs over the
entire range of Reynolds numbers (Re) with the exception of very
low Reo40, the Tritton (1977) transitions region (200oReo400),
and the laminar to turbulent ow transition. The cylinder would be
excited to signicant amplitudes when the frequency of the vortex
shedding mode locks onto the vibration frequency, thus synchronizing the natural frequency and the excitation frequency. For a smooth
or rough cylinder, the oscillatory lift forces on the body lead to
vortex-induced vibration (VIV). When the cylinder is not rotationally

where mosc is the total oscillating mass of cylinder and attachments including 1/3 of the spring mass, c is the linear viscous

It should be noted, however, that there is signicant difference
between the mathematical modeling of damping in Eq. (9) and the
real physical damping in the oscillators used in the experiments.
This difference is more pronounced in low oscillator speeds. Using
extensive system identication, the damping model in the physical
oscillators was found by Lee et al. (2011) to be

dependence of the friction force upon the current velocity, and ak
is a coefcient determined experimentally as explained by Lee
et al. (2011). This damping model is capable of predicting well the
VIV response even in low oscillator velocity for the virtual damper/
spring VIVACE system in the experiments (Lee and Bernitsas,
2011). Lee et al. (2010) also showed that at low oscillation speeds
discrepancies exist between experiments conducted with real
springs/dampers and experiments conducted with a virtual system using only linear viscous damping. Low oscillator speeds exist
at the beginning of the initial branch in VIV and near the end of
VIV in the desynchronization range. This is observed also in the
results in this paper since the experiments were conducted with
springs/dampers while the CFD oscillator modeluses the classical
linear viscous damping model in Eq. (9).

Additional denitions of functions and constants are given by
Spalart and Allmaras (1994). The trip terms ft1 and ft2 are turned
off and the trip-less initial condition (Shur et al., 1996; Travin
et al., 2000) for ~ , which was successfully used in earlier work for a
single circular cylinder (Wu et al., 2011), is used in this study.
A second-order Gauss integration scheme with a linear interpolation for the face-centered value of the unknown is used for the
divergence, gradient, and Laplacian terms in the governing equations. The second-order backward Euler method is adopted for
time integration. Thus, the numerical discretization scheme gives
second order accuracy in space and time. A pressure implicit with
splitting of operators (PISO) algorithm is used for solving momentum and continuity equations together in a segregated way. The
equations of motion for the two cylinders are solved using a
second-order mixed implicit and explicit time integration scheme.
3.3. Computational domain
The computational domain is 52D 9D for the two PTC-cylinders.
As shown in Fig. 3, the entire domain includes ve boundaries:
inow, outow, top, bottom, and the two cylinder walls. The distance

(b) 30,000 oReo 40,000: In this initial branch of VIV, the 2nd
cylinder has nearly zero amplitude with an amplitude ratio of
less than 0.1 at Re30,000 (U nwater 3.93). This is also observed
in the corresponding experiments.
(c) 40,000 oReo 80,000: At Re 40,000 (U nwater 5.24) where the
upper branch in VIV begins, the amplitude of oscillation
increases sharply and agrees well with the experiments until
Re 42,300. At the rst part of the upper branch, that is for
40,000 oReo 56,400
(5.24oU nwater o7.40),
experimental
results show a drop in the amplitude of the 2nd cylinder to
nearly zero. Simulation cannot predict this phenomenon. Past
this discrepancy at the beginning of the upper branch, agreement between CFD and experiments is very good. The amplitude ratio increases at a relatively slow rate picking up from
0.80 at Re40,000 (U nwater 5.24) and reaching 1.39 around
Re 80,000 (U nwater 10.49).
(d) 80,000 oReo 95,000: Next comes the transition from VIV to
galloping, a range that has hardly been studied in the literature and is discussed further in Section 6 based on vortex
structures. The amplitude increases rapidly for U nwater 410.49.
(e) Re 495,000: A maximum value of 3.5 in amplitude ratio is
reached in galloping at U nwater 13.31, which is higher than the
maximum value of 2.76 measured experimentally for the 2nd
cylinder. This is due to the fact that in the CFD simulations the
free surface was replaced by a wall. In the experiments, as
energy is converted from hydrokinetic to mechanical, the two
cylinders create a dam effect thus lowering the water level
above the 2nd cylinder. That limits the achievable amplitude
experimentally, which is observed as a plateau in the experimental results in Fig. 7. The safety-stops are placed on both
sides of the mean position with a distance of around 2.8 times
the diameter in the experiments in the MRELab. Consequently,
the cylinder would hit the safety stops and limit the travel
when it was undergoing galloping. In CFD, simulation would
stop when the distance between the bottom wall boundary
and the center of each cylinder would reach one diameter,
which is the distance between the bottom side of the 2D-by2D square grid of higher resolution for near wall calculations.

cylinder and one due to its own vortex shedding. The following
observations can be made regarding the ve regions of FIM.
6. Near-wake structures
The 2-D URANS results of amplitude and frequency response
for two PTC-cylinders match well with experiments. The amplitude and frequency response are closely related to the vortex
dynamics and wake pattern. Actually, amplitude and frequency are
integral properties of the uidstructure dynamics in the sense
that the pressure is integrated to give a force to which the cylinder
responds. Typically, integrals reduce error compared to nonintegral properties such as pressure distribution or location of
the separation point. Thus, it is harder for a URANS code on
cylinder uid dynamics to predict accurately local properties such
as vorticity and pressure distribution than it is to predict integral
properties such as Strouhal number, drag and lift forces, or
amplitude and frequency of response. A very important local
property is that of the vorticity distribution which results in vortex
structures in the near-wake. The vortex structures around the two
PTC-cylinders in FIM are presented and discussed in this section.
In the numerical and experimental results presented by Wu
et al. (2011) and Chang et al. (2011), the near-wake structures and
mode transition for one PTC-cylinder in FIM were discussed and
the salient features of the ow in the different branches of VIV and
galloping were achieved numerically. For one cylinder in FIM, the
transition between branches is accompanied by vortex pattern
change and the vortex pattern is stable when the cylinder is in a
branch (Wu et al., 2011).
It should be reminded here, that the reason for this successful
numerical prediction of the experimental results lies in the
application of the turbulence stimulation in the form of the PTC.
Specically, 2-D URANS results for a stationary smooth cylinder
match well basic integral experimental results, such as Strouhal
number, and drag and lift coefcients, for Reo10,000. For a
smooth cylinder in VIV this agreement between experiments
and CFD extends to Re about 12,000 (Wanderley et al., 2008; Wu
et al., 2011). The failure of agreement for Re4 12,000 can be traced
to the inaccurate prediction of a very important local property for
ows past a cylinder stationary or in FIM. That is the point of
separation of the ow and its oscillation as vortices shed in an
alternating manner. Specically, the separation point in laminar
ow (Reo 300,000) is located at 811 and oscillates around it up to
75101. For Re410,000, 2-D URANS methods fail to predict that
motion correctly. Typically, the separation point for Re4 10,000 is
predicted by 2D-URANS to be stationary at 901. With the addition
of the PTC in the experiments and in the 2-D URANS simulations,
the location of the separation point is predetermined resulting in
accurate prediction of the separation point. That resulted in very
good agreement between simulations and experiments in Wu
et al. (2011) for Reynolds numbers at least up to 135,000 for which
experimental results were available for a single PTC-cylinder in
FIM. This successful agreement extended not only to integral
properties but also local properties such as the vortex near-wake
structures. This agreement is also evident in the results in this
paper for two PTC-cylinders in FIM.
For the two PTC-cylinders in tandem cases, the upstream
cylinder (1st cylinder) has great inuence on the motion and
vortex shedding of the downstream cylinder (2nd cylinder), and
the vortex pattern becomes more complex than in the single
cylinder cases. The simulation results of four typical Reynolds
numbers, which correspond to the VIV initial branch, upper
branch, transition from VIV to galloping, and galloping branch,
are presented in this section. The vortex patterns for two PTCcylinders at Re 30,000, Re 59,229, Re93,074, and Re 100,000
are shown in Figs. 1013, respectively. The displacement ratio and
its FFT analysis for each cylinder are shown in Figs. 1012 as well.
6.1. Reynolds number of 30,000 (initial VIV branch)
As shown in Fig. 10, the 2S mode of vortex shedding can be
clearly observed for the 1st cylinder. Here, 2S indicates two single
vortices shed per cycle. Two vortices are shed from the 1st cylinder
per cycle of oscillation, one by the top shear layer and another one
by the bottom shear layer. When the two vortices move downstream and cross into the domain of the 2nd cylinder, the clockwise rotating vortex passes right above the 2nd cylinder and the
counter-clockwise vortex passes below it. This phenomenon,
due to the specic spacing between the two cylinders, causes
the vorticity from the 1st cylinder to absorb the same-rotation
vorticity from the 2nd cylinder preventing formation of large von
Krmn vortices forming behind the 2nd cylinderthus suppres-
437
sing its FIM. Shed vortices of the 1st cylinder allow only generation of small scale and very weak vortices in the 2nd cylinder.
In addition, the motion of the 1st cylinder has a strong regular
form, which can be observed in the displacement ratio curves and
FFT analysis in Fig. 10. The displacement of the 2nd cylinder is very
small, with average value of the 60 maximum peaks about 0.1D
and a maximum displacement of about 0.13D. Therefore, the
motion of the 2nd cylinder is almost suppressed. For the cases in
the VIV initial branch, the suppression of the 2nd cylinder was also
observed in the experiments. Visualization of the near wake vortex
structures using CFD has helped understand and explain this
phenomenon.
6.2. Reynolds number of 59,229 (upper VIV branch)
The time sequence of vortex shedding is shown in Fig. 11. In the
vortex structure of the near-wake of the 1st cylinder, two modes of
vortex shedding are observed in the simulation results: (a) When
the two PTC-cylinders move in opposite direction (out of phase), a
2P vortex pattern is observed behind the 1st cylinder, where 2P
means two pairs of vortices shed per cycle; (b) When the two
cylinders move in phase, the vortex mode of the 1st cylinder is 2P
+2S. The vortex pattern of the 1st cylinder switches between these
two modes over time. Thus, the motion of the 2nd cylinder
inuences the vortex shedding of the 1st cylinder. For the 2nd
cylinder, the 2P vortex pattern is shown in the simulation results.
The upstream vortices directly and closely interact with the
downstream cylinder. As can be seen in the displacement ratio
curves in Fig. 11, the motion of the 1st cylinder shows a periodic
pattern while small displacement is observed in certain cycles for
the 2nd cylinder. The reason for the small displacement in those
cycles is that the vortex development of the 2nd cylinder is
weakened by the shed vortices from the 1st cylinder, which is
similar to the phenomenon of the 2nd cylinder at Re30,000. The
drop-off in displacement of the 2nd cylinder is associated with the
variation of the phase difference between 1st and 2nd cylinder,
which means the relative position of the two cylinders changes
periodically from out-of-phase to in-phase. At the same time, the
vortex structure of the 1st cylinder switches between 2P and 2P
+2S. Relatively large difference of oscillation frequencies between
1st and 2nd cylinder could be found in the FFT analysis of the
displacement ratio. Three peaks appear in the result of FFT analysis
for the 2nd cylinder as shown in Fig. 11. The frequency values of
these three peaks are close to each other. The frequency of the
highest peak is larger than those of other two peaks. The

439
Fig. 13 shows the vortex structures for the two cylinders in fully
developed galloping at Re100,000. For the 1st cylinder and there
are 8 vortices shedding in one oscillation cycle. The vortex pattern
for the 2nd cylinder is not easy to identify as the vortex shedding
is severely affected by the 1st cylinder. The number of vortices and
their shedding mode is of secondary importance in galloping as
explained next.
6.5. FIM driving mechanism
The VIV driving mechanism is solely based on the oscillatory lift
resulting from vortex shedding. The mode of vortex shedding
whether 2S, 2P, or 2P+2S has frequency locked onto the frequency
of oscillation of the cylinder. Thus, the oscillatory excitation is in
synchronization with the body motion a condition similar to linear
resonance at each frequency of oscillation as the ow velocity
changes within the synchronization range. In galloping, the driving
mechanism is not based on the alternating vortices but on the lift
instability caused by negative damping due to the lift force induced
by the geometric asymmetry of the circular cylinder due to the
turbulence stimulation. The transition from the VIV mechanism to
the galloping mechanism can be observed by comparing Fig. 11
(VIV) to Fig. 12 (VIV-to-galloping transition) to Fig. 13 (fully
developed galloping). In Fig. 11, the vortex shedding mode is in
synchronization with the cylinder oscillation. In Fig. 12, as the
amplitude of oscillation increases, the number of vortices shed per
cycle increases resulting in more complex modes. The vortex
shedding frequency is several times higher than the vortex-mode
frequency, which is still in synchronization with the cylinder
oscillations. In Fig. 12, it can also be observed that the shear layer
motions follow the cylinder oscillations as expected. Their role in
inducing oscillatory lift in synchronization with the cylinder motion
increases and becomes the dominant driving mechanism in Fig. 13
where vortices no longer shed in modes synchronized with the
cylinder oscillations. Vortices shed in less complex modes as the
cylinder amplitude increases and more complex modes with more
