Forecasting Solar Wind Speeds
By explicitly taking into account effects of Alfvén waves, I derive from a simple energetics argument a fundamental relation which predicts solar wind (SW) speeds in the vicinity of the earth from physical properties on the sun. Kojima et al. recently found from their observations that a ratio of surface magnetic field strength to an expansion factor of open magnetic flux tubes is a good indica...
متن کاملExtreme Wind Speeds in the Kingdom of
Extreme value analysis of wind data in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is described. Probabilistic models of wind behavior at twenty stations are generated which yield the basic design wind speeds for a given recurrence interval in fastest mile units. The models are verified by the Chisquare and Kolmogorov-Smirnov goodness-of-fit tests at 5 percent significance level. Basic design wind speeds are c...
متن کاملDrag coefficient reduction at very high wind speeds
[1] The correct representation of the 10-m drag coefficient for momentum (K10) at extreme wind speeds is very important for modeling the development of tropical depressions and may also be relevant to the understanding of other intense marine meteorological phenomena. We present a unified boundary layer model for (K10), which takes account of both the wave field and spray production, and asympt...
متن کاملAn Estimate of the Geosat Altimeter Wind Speed Algorithm at High Wind Speeds
Existing wind speed algorithms for satellite altimeters have been developed from data in the range 0 to 20 m/s. At higher wind speeds the available algorithms diverge alarmingly. By comparing Geosat altimeter values of the radar cross section with model predictions of the surface winds during satellite overpasses of tropical cyclones, a wind speed algorithm valid for wind speeds between 20 and ...
متن کاملAnalysis of Unsteady Airfoils at Low Speeds
In this study exemplary results on the influence of two fundamental unsteady parameters, the reduced frequency k and the non-dimensional pitching rate α+, on the transition from a steady to an unsteady flow field around the reference airfoil BAC3-11/RES/30/21 are presented using experimental and numerical techniques. The tools used are described and their results verified with each other. On th...
