Numerical investigations of the turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate in the Rhine region of freshwater influence
The turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate, ε, in tidal seas is maximum at the bottom during full flood and during full ebb, i.e. when tidal currents are strongest. In coastal regions with tides similar to a Kelvin wave, this coincides with high water and low water. If there is a freshwater source at the coast, stratification in such a region will be most stable at high water and least at lo...
متن کاملEstimating the turbulent energy dissipation rate in an airport environment
This note reports on the influence of aircraft wake vortices on the estimation of the turbulent energy dissipation rate using sonic anemometer measurements near the runway threshold. The wake vortex traces, which are generated at a height of about 65m and subsequently evolve in ground effect, are clearly visible in the velocity components and temperature. The observed temperature increase of 1K...
متن کاملRenormalized expression for the turbulent energy dissipation rate.
Conditional elimination of degrees of freedom is shown to lead to an exact expression for the rate of turbulent energy dissipation in terms of a renormalized viscosity and a correction. The correction is neglected on the basis of a previous hypothesis [W. D. McComb and C. Johnston, J. Phys. A 33, L15 (2000)] that there is a range of parameters for which a quasistochastic estimate is a good appr...
متن کاملTurbulent flow in pulsed extraction columns with internals of discs and rings:Turbulent kinetic energy and its dissipation rate during the pulsation
Turbulent energy parameters of single-phase pulsed flow in an extraction column with internals of immobile discs and rings (doughnuts) are studied. Simulation results are obtained by resolution of Reynolds equations coupled with k–ε model of turbulence. As far as pulsed flow is concerned, the evolution of space distribution of turbulent kinetic energy k and its dissipation rate ε during the pul...
متن کاملInternal wave energy radiated from a turbulent mixed layer
We examine mixed-layer deepening and the generation of internal waves in stratified fluid resulting from turbulence that develops in response to an applied surface stress. In laboratory experiments the stress is applied over the breadth of a finite-length tank by a moving roughened conveyor belt. The turbulence in the shear layer is characterized using particle image velocimetry to measure the ...
