CFD simulation is employed to carry out the entire procedure from FR to the TWW. Influences of the TWW propagation direction and the wave velocity are investigated. TWW in the “Downstream” direction eliminates the oscillating wake of the cylinder. Fluctuating value of the lift coefficient plummets to minimum value at c/U∞ = 2.0. Mechanism of the TWW method is expounded by the BVF and the relative flow fields.
