Experimental study of air entrainment in the flow past a cylinder close to a free surface
The objective of this paper is to experimentally investigate the air entrainment induced by free surface flow past a cylinder.A high-speed digital camera and a 2D-High Speed PIV system are applied to investigate the wake patterns and velocity field.The wake patterns are defined by occurrence or non-occurrence of air entrainment.A regime map of wake patterns is constructed to depict the wake patterns and states, i.e.Froude number (Fr) and gap ratio (h/d).As shown in the wake patterns map, there are two regions with a clear boundary: the upper region represents the air entrainment condition, and the lower region non-air entrainment.With the increasing of Fr, the wake pattern migrates from the non-occurrence of air entrainment state to the occurrence state.While for gap ratio, there only exists a parameter space of 0.64≤Fr≤0.8, in which the wake patterns can change from the non-occurrence state to the occurrence state with the gap ratio increasing.Moreover, two type of air entrainment are observed, namely plunging breaker and counter flow entraining, respectively.
