Vibration and stability of a group of tubes in crossflow

Conference ·
OSTI ID:203419
This paper presents an unsteady flow theory for flow-induced vibration and instability of tube arrays in crossflow. It includes measurements of motion-dependent fluid forces, mathematical model, and experiments on nonlinear response of tube arrays. The unsteady flow theory can be used to provide answers to complex vibration problems in steam generators.
