Dynamics of Sheared Convective Boundary Layer Entrainment. Part I: Methodological Background and Large-Eddy Simulations
The reported study examines the dynamics of entrainment and its effects on the evolution of the dry atmospheric convective boundary layer (CBL) when wind shear is present. The sheared CBL can be studied by means of direct measurements in the atmosphere, laboratory studies, and numerical techniques. The advantages and disadvantages of each technique are discussed in the present paper, which also...
متن کاملVolume Imaging Lidar Observations and Large-eddy Simulations of Convective Internal Boundary Layers
Poster presentation preferred. (A computer with MPEG player would be helpful if we can't bring laptop.) Government sponsor: NSF and ARO. Suggested session: Battlespace sensing techniques and applications In previous work we showed 2-D vector wind fields obtained from the cross-correlation of aerosol backscatter images collected with the University of Wisconsin's Volume Imaging Lidar (UW-VIL). W...
متن کاملLarge-eddy Simulations of the Effects of Hilly Terrain on the Convective Boundary Layer
Large-eddy simulations of the convective boundary layer are compared over hilly versus flat surfaces. Moderate values for the height and horizontal spacing of the hills were selected. Thermallydirect hill-valley circulations are induced by the uneven terrain, accounting for a significant fraction of the resolved energy in the boundary-layer eddies. The probability of upward eddy motion reaches ...
متن کاملLarge-Eddy Simulations of Longitudinal Vortices Embedded in a Turbulent Boundary Layer
Large-eddy simulations of pairs of artificially generated longitudinal vortices embedded in a two-dimensional turbulent boundary layer are performed to study the dynamics of the vortical structures and to provide the unsteady inflow data for use in a future turbomachinery simulation. An immersed boundarymethod is employed to represent the wall-mounted half-delta wings that generate the counter-...
متن کاملLarge Eddy Simulations using oodlesDST
The oodlesDST code is based on OpenFOAM software and performs Large Eddy Simulations of turbulent fluid flows. The code contains a number of specialized subgrid scale turbulence models and wall models. This report describes these models in sufficient detail to allow a new user of the code to make informed decisions regarding the use of these models for particular applications. An overview of th...
