Mean velocity profile in a sheared and thermally stratified atmospheric boundary layer.
A stability correction function φ(m)(ζ) that accounts for distortions to the logarithmic mean velocity profile (MVP) in the lower atmosphere caused by thermal stratification was proposed by Monin and Obukhov in the 1950s using dimensional analysis. Its universal character was established from many field experiments. However, theories that describe the canonical shape of φ(m)(ζ) are still lackin...
متن کاملWind-tunnel simulation of stably stratified atmospheric boundary layers
Results are presented of simulations of a stable boundary layer of moderate surface condition and zero overlying inversion strength. The layer depth is matched to model scale by artificially thickening the boundary layer by means of flow generators (‘spires’) at the working-section inlet. A non-uniform inlet temperature profile is essential in order to preclude the upper part of the layer retai...
متن کاملMean scalar concentration profile in a sheared and thermally stratified atmospheric surface layer.
Using only dimensional considerations, Monin and Obukhov proposed a "universal" stability correction function φ(c)(ζ) that accounts for distortions caused by thermal stratification to the mean scalar concentration profile in the atmospheric surface layer when the flow is stationary, planar homogeneous, fully turbulent, and lacking any subsidence. For nearly 6 decades, their analysis provided th...
متن کاملInternal Waves and Boundary Layers in a Density-stratified Fluid
Internal tides, generated in the density-stratified ocean by the oscillation of the barotropic tide over bottom topography, play a crucial role in the energy balance of the Earth–Moon system [1]. This has led to a recent revival of the classical topic of internal gravity wave generation by oscillating bodies. Wave energy dissipates owing to wave breaking and suband superharmonic excitation, at ...
