Specific features of wake flow behind a two-dimensional body with a cavity on its rear edge

We present experimental results on the effect exerted by the width of a cavity made at the rear edge of a two-dimensional model on the magnitude of the bottom pressure, the Strouhal number, and the turbulent characteristics of a wake.Academic Scientific Complex A.
