Analysis of Aerodynamic Characteristics of Two Parallel Rotating Cylinders

Аннотация

We report on the results of experimental investigations on determining drag and lift coefficients for a system of two parallel rotating cylinders. The results show that with increasing the distance between rotating cylinders, drag and lift coefficients decrease. It has been established experimentally that the distance beginning with which cylinders almost stop acting on each other is 0.4 of the diameter of these cylinders.
