Abstract:A novel cylindrical energy conversion device with Savonius impeller structure is simulated, incorporating user-defined functions and the SST k-ω turbulence model to achieve fluid-structure coupling. Investigating the flow rotation and vibration response of the cylinder with Savonius impeller structure of different ellipticities. Revealing the mechanism of coupling between flow rotation and vortex-induced vibration. The results show that the impeller structure ellipticity is the key to influence the transverse flow displacement of the cylinder. For cylinders with the same ellipticity, the projected area is an important factor affecting the downstream displacement. At low reduction velocities, the cylinder rotates unsteadily, forming an asymmetric flow wake, showing a P+S wake pattern. At high reduction velocities, the cylinder rotates steadily in the clockwise direction. The rotational angular velocity fluctuates periodically. In the same rotation period, cylinders with smaller impeller structure ellipticities exhibit larger absolute values of the cylinder's instantaneous torque coefficient.
