Q4: run the case of Re=5000 using transient solver. Monitor the lift force or lift coefficient of the cylinder. Estimate the oscillation frequency of the flow from the profile of

life force/coefficient and compare it with the data in literature. Experiments show that the frequency, f, of this periodic flow (in Hz) can be expressed in terms of a non-dimensional parameter known as the Strouhal number, defined as: S t=\frac{f D}{U_{\infty}}
