Vortices are usually shed from the rear of a cylinder, which are placed in a uniform flow at low speeds. The vortices alternatively leave the top and the bottom of the cylinder, as shown in figure, causing an alternating force normal because of generating a dimensionless relationship for Kármán vortex shedding frequency fk (1/s)  as a function of free-stream speed V(m/s), fluid density r (kg/m3), fluid viscosity µ (kg/m.s), sound velocity c (m/s), surface roughness ɛ (m)  and cylinder diameter D(m).
