Abstract

Hydrodynamic forces acting on an inclined finite length circular cylinder in an oscillating flow are investigated experimentally. Forced surging tests were carried out on a cylinder whose inclined angle varied from 0 to 30 degrees. The drag coefficients, the added mass coefficients and the lift coefficients were obtained. Comparing these data with those of a vertical finite length cylinder, the effects of inclination on these hydrodynamic coefficients were clarified.
