The use of transverse cylinders of various sizes for generating vortex-induced waves in stratified oil–water pipe flows is investigated in this work. From CFD simulations in single phase flows, cylinders with 2 mm and 8 mm in diameter were selected which are found to generate vortices with frequenci...
