Experimental investigations and numerical analysis were carried out to clarify the behavior of an interactive flow around two circular cylinders with different diameters, in particular, the phenomenon that the shear layer separated from the main cylinder reattaches to the rear surface due to the Coanda effect. Numerical analysis was simplified by applying a vortex method and a boundary element method. The results obtained were as follows. The reattachment due to the Coanda effect appeared intermittently and could simulated. Negative lift acted on the main cylinder, and the calculated lift and drag coefficient showed good agreement with those of experiments. The calculated Strouhal numbers were 20∼30% higher than the experimental ones.
