For your MQP project you are asked to study fluid (wind) flow over the tall cylinder shaped smokestack near Boynton Hall on the WPI canmpus. Cylinders (or smokestacks) in a fluid flow shed rotating fluid (vortices) at some shedding frequency f (in rad/sec) which is the dependent variable in this problem. Other important physical parameters include the fluid density p, the cylinder diameter d, and the oncoming wind speed V. Use p, V and d as repeating variables. There is one important physical parameter missing from my physical description. Name it.
