In this paper, the flow around a main circular cylinder with two small control cylinders is numerically investigated at a subcritical Reynolds number of 3900. Two small control cylinders with diameter ratio of d/D = 0.04 (d and D are the diameters of the control cylinders and the main cylinder, resp...
