Summary
The paper presents large-eddy simulations of the flow around a cylinder of finite height mounted on a flat plate. The Reynolds number is 43000 and the height-to- diameter ratio is 2.5. The computations were performed with two different Finite Volume codes and grids of different resolution. An analysis of the average and of the instantaneous flow is provided. Furthermore, the results are compared to a companion experiment.
