This study presents simulations and theoretical analysis of vortex-induced vibration of a circular cylinder in a free stream, revealing a correlation between vibration amplitude and Reynolds number as well as mass ratio, with vibration always being excited by the shedding of single vortices.
We present simulations of a circular cylinder undergoing vortex-induced vibration in-line with a free stream in conjunction with a theory for the fluid dynamics. Initially, it is shown that increasing the Reynolds number from 100 to 250 results in a 12-fold increase of the peak response amplitude at a fixed mass ratio of m* = 5. Subsequently, m* is varied from 2 up to 20 at a fixed Reynolds number of 180. The response amplitude as a function of the reduced velocity U * displays a single excitation region with peak amplitudes of approximately 1% of the cylinder diameter, irrespective of the m* value. The vibration is always excited by the alternating shedding of single vortices. We develop a new model for the in-line fluid force, which comprises an inviscid inertial force, a quasi-steady drag and a wake drag induced by vortex shedding. Our analysis shows that the wake drag appropriately captures a gradual shift in the timing of vortex shedding in its phase variation as a function of U* while the magnitude of the wake drag displays a resonant amplification within the excitation region. We use the theory to illustrate why peak amplitudes, which occur when the vibration frequency is equal to the structural frequency in still fluid, do not depend on m*, in agreement with our simulations as well as previous experiments at Reynolds numbers higher than considered here. This new theory provides physical insight which could not be attained heretofore by employing semi-empirical approaches in the literature.
