Gradient evolution for potential vorticity flows
Two-dimensional unsteady incompressible flows in which the potential vorticity (PV) plays a key role are examined in this study, through the development of the evolution equation for the PV gradient. For the case where the PV is conserved, precise statements concerning topologyconservation are presented. While establishing some intuitively well-known results (the numbers of eddies and saddles i...
متن کاملSpace discontinuous Galerkin method for shallow water flows —kinetic and HLLC flux, and potential vorticity generation
In this paper, a second order space discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method is presented for the numerical solution of inviscid shallow water flows over varying bottom topography. Novel in the implementation is the use of HLLC and kinetic numerical fluxes 1 in combination with a dissipation operator, applied only locally around discontinuities to limit spurious numerical oscillations. Numerical solu...
متن کاملVORTICITY GENERATION IN LOCALIZED MAGNETIC FIELDS S.Cuevas
The generation of vorticity in localized magnetic fields is explored under the low magnetic Reynolds number approximation. Analytic solutions for a creeping flow past a magnetic point dipole are obtained through a perturbation method. Also, numerical calculations for the flow past a finite size magnetic dipole are presented. It is shown that vortical structures may become unstable when inertial...
متن کاملVorticity generation in large-scale structure caustics
A fundamental hypothesis for the interpretation of the measured large-scale line-of-sight peculiar velocities of galaxies is that the large-scale cosmic flows are irrotational. In order to assess the validity of this assumption, we estimate, within the frame of the gravitational instability scenario, the amount of vorticity generated after the first shell crossings in large-scale caustics. In t...
متن کاملHow can vorticity be produced in irrotationally forced flows?
A spherical hydrodynamical expansion flow can be described as the gradient of a potential. In that case no vorticity should be produced, but several additional mechanisms can drive its production. Here we analyze the effects of baroclinicity, rotation and shear in the case of a viscous fluid. Those flows resemble what happens in the interstellar medium. In fact in this astrophysical environment...
