Abstract:
      A 2-D slab-symmetric model of mixed convective-stratiform cloud is developed by superimposing convective cloud-size field on the convergence field,in order to simulate and study the mixed clouds consisting of stratiform cloud and convective cloud.A deep convective,anelastic and conservative system of equations with basic variables(V,θ,π') is solved by a new method to calculate dynamic field.The water substance in the cloud is divided into 6 categories and the microphysical processes are described in spectrum with two variable parameters and more reasonable particle number/size distributions.To compare with measured radar echo intensity and structure,the model may calculate echo intensity of the model cloud observed by radar.
