Abstract:
The flow pattern around a horizontal cylinder towed at constant velocity in a continuously stratified fluid is visualized by the shadow method. The velocities in the leading flow disturbance, i. e., in the flow-blocking region ahead of the cylinder, are presented. In the body wake, a new class of small-size structures in the density gradient field is revealed against the background of a smooth velocity profile. The evolution of the flow pattern with variation of the parameters of body motion is studied.
