Exploring parameterization for turbulent entrainment‐mixing processes in clouds
[1] Different turbulent entrainment‐mixing processes (e.g., homogeneous and inhomogeneous) occur in clouds; accurate representation of these processes is critical for improving cloud‐related parameterizations in large‐scale models, but poorly understood and quantified. Using in situ aircraft observations over the U. S. Department of Energy's Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Southern Great Plai...
متن کاملAcceleration-driven variable- density turbulent flow
We discuss turbulent dynamics and mixing of a variable-density flow subject to a uniformacceleration field. The flow resulting from initial misalignments of pressure and density gradients is investigated for small to large density ratios, with evidence that the smalldensity ratio flow is described by the Boussinesq approximation. A new shear-layer growth rate is reported. Spectra collapse when ...
متن کاملan experimental study of turbulent mixing near a density interface
the entrainment of a stably stratified layer into a turbulent mixed layer in a confined region has been studied in the laboratory for different richardson numbers, ri. the results include direct observation of turbulent characteristics and density measurements using two high precision salinity meters. the measurements include turbulence intensity, scale of eddies near the interface and energy s...
متن کاملOn density effects and large structure in turbulent mixing layers
Plane turbulent mixing between two streams of different gases (especially nitrogen and helium) was studied in a novel apparatus. Spark shadow pictures showed that, for all ratios of densities in the two streams, the mixing layer is dominated by large coherent structures. High-speed movies showed that these convect at nearly constant speed, and increase their size and spacing discontinuously by ...
متن کاملTime-averaged Turbulent Mixing and Vertical Concentration Distribution of High-density Suspensions Formed under Waves
We analyzed oscillating flow data from U-tube experiments by Lamb et al. (2004) and found that the time-averaged turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) near bed decreased exponentially with height above the bed in high-densitysuspension (HDS) flows under waves, and that the ratios of TKE distributions in the streamwise, cross-stream, and vertical dimensions were constant. Based on the finite-mixing-len...
