We experimentally investigated the flow characteristics around a circular cylinder with a slot at different angles of attack. The experimental campaign was performed in a wind tunnel at the Reynolds number of Re  = 2.67 × 10 4 . The cylindrical test model was manufactured with a slot at the slot wid...
