Threshold Windspeeds for Sand on Mars Wind Tunnel Simulations
Wind friction threshold speeds (u,t) for particle movement (saltation) were determined in a wind tunnel operating at martian surface pressure with a 95 percent CO 2 and 5 percent air atmosphere. The relationship between friction speed (u,) and free-stream velocity (%0) is extended to the critical case for Mars of momentum thickness Reynolds numbers (Re0) between 425 and 2000. It is determined t...
متن کاملOn the saltation of fresh snow in a wind tunnel: Profile characterization and single particle statistics
[1] We present experimental results on the snow drift in a turbulent boundary layer over a flat fresh snow-covered surface. Vertical profiles of mass flux and of the distribution of particle diameters were obtained by means of a pair of Snow Particle Counters parallel with measurements of the stream-wise velocity profile. The aim of the paper is to discuss current parameterizations of the verti...
متن کاملWind tunnel measurements for dispersion modelling of vehicle wakes
7 Wind tunnel measurements downwind of reduced scale car models have been made to study the 8 wake regions in detail, test the usefulness of existing vehicle wake models, and draw key 9 information needed for dispersion modelling in vehicle wakes. The experiments simulated a car 10 moving in still air. This is achieved by (i) the experimental characterisation of the flow, turbulence 11 and conc...
متن کاملPlant Canopy Effects on Wind Erosion Saltation
Maintaining standing vegetative soil cover is an important method of wind erosion control. However^ an improved physical understanding of the mechanisms by which standing vegetation control wind erosion is needed so the erosion control level of vegetation not previously tested in a wind tunnel can be calculated. In this report, a theoretical approach that accounts for both the surface friction ...
متن کاملPilot-scale concept of real-time wind speed-matching wind tunnel for measurements of gaseous emissions
Comprehensive control of odors, hydrogen sulfide (H2S), ammonia (NH3) and odorous volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions associated with animal production is a critical need. Current methods utilizing wind tunnels and flux chambers for measurements of gaseous emissions from area sources such as feedlots, lagoons, pastures and cropland are often criticized for potential bias. The bias is due ...
