Flow past a smooth circular cylinder at high Reynolds number (Re=3.6 x 106) which covers the upper-transition regime has been investigated numerically by using Open source Field Operation and Manipulation (OpenFOAM) package. OpenFOAM is a free, open source Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software package. The numerical model has been set up as two dimensional (2D), transient, incompressible and turbulent flow. A standard high Reynolds number k-ε turbulence model is included to evaluate the turbulence. The objective of the present work is to set up the case using pimpleFoam solver which is an Unsteady Reynolds Averaged Simulations (URANS) model and to evaluate the model for its conformance with available literature and experiments. The results obtained are compared with experimental and numerical data.

Stably stratified steady flow past a bluff body in a channel is considered for cases in which the stratification is not sufficiently strong to give solutions containing wave motions. The physical mechanisms by which stratification influences the flow are revealed. In particular, the drag reduction under weak stratification, observed in experiments, is explained. This is achieved by constructing an asymptotic laminar solution for high Reynolds number (Re) and large channel width, which explicitly gives the mechanisms, and using comparisons with numerical results for medium Re and experiments for turbulent flows to argue that these mechanisms are expected to be common in all cases. The results demonstrate the possibility, subject to certain restrictions, of using steady high-Re theory as a tool for studying qualitative features of real flows.
