Abstract

The numerical simulation of the laminar viscous flow past a cylinder performing rotary oscillations around its axis is carried out. The Navier–Stokes equations are solved by finite volume method using the program package OpenFOAM. The values of the amplitude and frequency of forced oscillations are found, at which the maximum reduction of the drag coefficient of the cylinder is achieved.
