Weakened Vortex Shedding from a Rotating Cylinder
An experimental study of the turbulent near wake of a rotating circular cylinder was made at a Reynolds number of 2000 for velocity ratios, λ between 0 and 2.7. Particle image velocimetry data are analyzed to study the effects of rotation on the flow structures behind the cylinder. The results indicate that the rotation of the cylinder causes significant changes in the vortex formation. Kármán ...
متن کامل5. the Mean Meridional Circulation
(3) Here the square brackets denote zonal means, RΤ is the net radiation at the top of the atmosphere, and a time average has been used to eliminate the tendency term. Eq. (3) expresses the requirement of total energy balance for a “ring” of air along a latitude circle. By further integration of (3) with respect to latitude, we can obtain the meridional energy transport by the atmosphere, with ...
متن کاملDiscrete vortex simulation of the separated flow around a rotating circular cylinder at high Reynolds number
The separated flow around a rotating circular cylinder is investigated by the discrete vortex method combined with the boundary layer theory. The Keller Box method is used to solve the laminar boundary layer in order to determine the separation points on the upper and the lower sides of the rotating circular cylinder. The nascent vortices are then introduced near the separation points. A discre...
متن کاملMeridional Circulation and Global Solar Oscillations
We investigate the influence of large-scale meridional circulation on solar p-modes by quasi-degenerate perturbation theory, as proposed by Lavely and Ritzwoller (1992). As an input flow we use various models of stationary meridional circulation obeying the continuity equation. This flow perturbs the eigenmodes of an equilibrium model of the Sun. We derive the signatures of the meridional circu...
متن کاملMeridional Circulation and the Solar Magnetic Cycle
The Sun’s magnetic cycle manifests itself in an year periodic variation in the number of sunspots seen on the solar surface and a periodic reversal in the polarity of its large-scale magnetic fields. Exploring the origins of this magnetic cycle can unravel the physical mechanisms at work in the interior of magnetized stars like the Sun. Such studies are also important for understanding how the ...
