Revisiting Surface Heat-Flux and Temperature Boundary Conditions in Models of Stably Stratified Boundary-Layer Flows
Two formulations of the surface thermal boundary condition commonly employed in numericalmodelling of atmospheric stably stratified surface-layer flows are evaluated using analytical considerations and observational data from the Cabauw site in the Netherlands. The first condition is stated in terms of the surface heat flux and the second is stated in terms of the vertical potential temperature...
متن کاملApplication of a New Spectral Theory of Stably Stratified Turbulence to the Atmospheric Boundary Layer over Sea Ice
A new spectral closure model of stably stratified turbulence is used to develop a K model suitable for applications to the atmospheric boundary layer. This K model utilizes vertical viscosity and diffusivity obtained from the spectral theory. In the equation, the Coriolis parameter-dependent formulation of the coefficient C1 suggested by Detering and Etling is generalized to include the depende...
متن کاملThe Convective Instability of Boundary-layer Flows over Rotating Spheroids
The continuous development of spinning projectiles and other industrial applications has led to the need to understand the laminar boundary-layer flow and subsequent onset of transition over the general family of rotating spheroids. We begin by finding the laminar boundary-layer flow over a general spheroid. In particular, we distinguish between prolate and oblate spheroids and use an appropria...

متن کاملStratified Flow over Topography: Wave Generation and Boundary Layer Separation
We have performed laboratory experiments to study wave generation over and in the lee of model topography. We have chosen to use periodic, finite-amplitude hills which are representative of the Earth’s major mountain ranges as well as the repetitious topographic features of the ocean floor. The topographic shapes are selected to encompass varying degrees of roughness, from smoothly-varying sinu...
