Study of fluidelastic instability in the streamwise and transverse directions through tube array under two-phase flow conditions using pressure effects by Sijiu Qi, Wei Tan, Ke Zhang, Yuancen Wang, Wenjing Lin, Peize Han, Guorui Zhu

“…Additionally, instability in the streamwise direction was primarily controlled by the stiffness mechanism; a single flexible tube did not exhibit fluidelastic instability in the streamwise direction, while the central cluster did. This paper recommends an instability constant (K) value of 3.4 for the Connors formula for a normal triangular tube bundle configuration with the pitch-to-diameter ratio of 1.41, thereby providing empirical and theoretical support for the vibration analysis of tube bundles.…”
