Effect of Nonlinear Magnetic Forces on Transverse Galloping Dynamics of Square Cylinders

Abstract

Under the influence of cross-fluid flow, a cylinder of a square cross-section may gallop. Galloping is a self-excited vibration mode that can be utilized for low-power harvesting applications. The harvested power depends on several factors, including upstream flow velocity and system dynamics. This study explores the potential of magnetically-induced nonlinear stiffness to improve the power output of galloping-based energy harvesters. In this experimental study, the vibration response of a square rod with a mass ratio of 10 is investigated at a Reynolds number of 200. The vibration behavior of two identical coaxial square rods with magnetic monopoles at opposite ends is analyzed. Results reveal that the magnets’ configuration and strength significantly affect vibration amplitude and the critical flow velocity necessary for the onset of galloping.
