Reynolds Stress and Eddy Diffusivity of b-Plane Shear Flows
The Reynolds stress induced by anisotropically forcing an unbounded Couette flow, with uniform shear g, on a b plane, is calculated in conjunction with the eddy diffusivity of a coevolving passive tracer. The flow is damped by linear drag on a time scale m. The stochastic forcing is white noise in time and its spatial anisotropy is controlled by a parameter a that characterizes whether eddies a...
متن کاملVanishing Viscosity in the Barotropic b-Plane
The initial boundary value problems associated with the inviscid barotropic potential vorticity equation in the b-plane and its viscous analogue are considered. It is shown that the solution velocity to the viscous equation converges to the inviscid solution in a C1 sense for finite times and that, under additional smoothness assumptions on the inviscid flow, this convergence can be extended to...
متن کاملDirect Numerical Simulation of Eddy Diffusivity in a Plane Jet with a second-order reaction
Turbulent flows with chemical reactions can be seen in various fields. Therefore, it is important to establish numerical methods to predict turbulent reactive flows. Reynolds-averaged approach is often used for predictions of reactive flows. In this approach, Reynolds-averaged scalar transport equations are solved by using models for a turbulent mass flux and an averaged production rate ...
متن کاملDetermination of eddy diffusivity in the lowermost stratosphere
[1] We present a 2D-advection-diffusion model that simulates the main transport pathways influencing tracer distributions in the lowermost stratosphere (LMS). The model describes slow diabatic descent of aged stratospheric air, vertical (cross-isentropic) and horizontal (along isentropes) diffusion within the LMS and across the tropopause using equivalent latitude and potential temperature coor...
متن کاملA New Model for Prediction of Heat Eddy Diffusivity in Pipe Expansion Turbulent Flows
A new model to calculate heat eddy diffusivity in separating and reattaching flows based on modification of constant Prt is proposed. This modification is made using an empirical correlation between maximum Nusselt number and entrance Reynolds number. The model includes both the simplicity of Prt=0.9 assumption and the accuracy of two-equation heat-transfer models. Furthermore, an appropriate l...
