متن کاملCoupling leeside grainfall to avalanche characteristics in aeolian dune dynamics
Avalanche (grainflow) processes are fundamental drivers of dune morphodynamics and are typically initiated by grainfall accumulations. In sedimentary systems, however, the dynamism between grainfall and grainflow remains unspecified because simple measurements are hampered by the inherent instability of lee slopes. Here, for the first time, terrestrial laser scanning is used to quantify key asp...
متن کاملNumerical modelling of flow structures over transverse aeolian dunes
Numerical flow models have been widely applied in engineering disciplines for many years. In the last few years, there has been a proliferation of the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) in the fields of geomorphology and hydrology (see Bates and Lane, 1998). These models enable an improved simulation of important processes providing prediction fields that allow considerable insight into ...
متن کاملNumerical modeling of the wind flow over a transverse dune
Transverse dunes, which form under unidirectional winds and have fixed profile in the direction perpendicular to the wind, occur on all celestial objects of our solar system where dunes have been detected. Here we perform a numerical study of the average turbulent wind flow over a transverse dune by means of computational fluid dynamics simulations. We find that the length of the zone of recirc...
متن کاملModeling and Measurement of Macroscopic Flow Fields in Structured Packings
Corrugated structured packings feature strong preferential flow directions due to their structure of crossing triangular channels. This leads to good radial spreading but makes modelling a challenge. Detailed CFD calculations reflecting the exact packing structure are only feasible for small sections of packing. However, effects like large scale maldistribution and instabilities in the flow fie...
