As a non-streamline body, bluff body is widely applied in many engineering projects such as aerospace, construction, transportation, and environment, which has a larger and even more overwhelming differential pressure resistance compared to streamlines in case of aircraft, building structures, bridges, automobiles, heat exchangers, eddy-current flowmeter, etc., and is a classic branch in the research field of fluid mechanics. There are rich passing flow structures around the bluff body. For example, the surface of the bluff body will generate a wide range of boundary layers of separation and form a wide wake flow with vortex shedding.
