A wind-tunnel simulation of the diffusion patterns in a sea breeze has been attempted. No attempt was made to reproduce the recirculation that characterizes a sea breeze, but the results indicate that the low-level onshore flow was well simulated for neutral, stable, unstable, and elevated inversion conditions. Velocity, turbulence, shear stress, and temperature data were taken, and the spread of emissions from ground-level sources was investigated.Comparison is made with theoretical predictions by Inoue and with the open, countryside results of Pasquill. Agreement with the predictions by Inoue is good. The comparison with Pasquill's results shows that the wind-tunnel flows are shifted two categories towards more stable. The discrepancy may be explained as a lack of mesoscale turbulence in the wind-tunnel. 相似文献

利用大涡模式模拟了对流边界层结构演变以及深对流触发过程。通过改变鲍恩比的敏感性试验研究不同大气初始状况下湿润和干旱下垫面湍流特征及其对深对流触发过程的影响。结果表明:干旱下垫面的混合层干而暖,厚度较大;湿润下垫面相反。由于地表感热通量对热力湍流形成的作用更大,干旱下垫面上湍流混合和夹卷作用更强,使得水汽和相当位温在边界层内分布更均一,而在边界层顶有较大的负扰动;干旱下垫面上对流强度较湿润下垫面大,但均表现为泡状对流,水平方向上呈网状结构。不同下垫面上深对流的发生与大气初始状况有关,当初始时刻1—3 km的逆温强度较弱时（0.15 K/（100 m））,边界层内湍流迅速发展,深对流首先在干旱下垫面发生,但因对流有效位能较小,云层厚度小于湿润下垫面。当1—3 km的逆温强度增加到0.55 K/（100 m）时,云层形成时间较晚,云层厚度明显减小,仅当边界层顶的比湿较大时,有深对流发生,但仍首先发生在干旱下垫面,考虑贯穿对流在边界层顶引起的较强冷却作用,云层厚度大于湿润下垫面。 相似文献

风切变对边界层对流影响的大涡模拟研究 总被引：5，自引：0，他引：5
利用"西北干旱区陆-气相互作用野外观测实验"加密观测期间在敦煌站的观测资料以及大涡模式,模拟了对流边界层的发展,以及示踪物从混合层向残留层传输的时空变化。模拟的对流边界层的结构及演变特征与实测结果基本一致。进一步通过有风切变和无风切变的敏感性数值试验,研究了风切变对垂直速度、位温和示踪物浓度的水平分布以及示踪物传输高度的影响。研究结果表明,在有风切变的试验中(甚至风切变仅存在于近地层中),对流边界层的增长加强,而且示踪物被传输的高度也较高。与浮力驱动的对流边界层相比,由浮力和风切变共同驱动的边界层中上升气流较弱而下沉气流较强,但前者的上升气流与下沉气流的分布在垂直方向上更为倾斜。由于夹卷作用的增强,浮力和风切变共同驱动的对流边界层较浮力驱动的对流边界层暖。在夹卷层,浮力和风切变共同驱动的边界层对流的上升气流和下沉气流都比浮力驱动的边界层对流中的强,而且垂直速度的概率密度函数分布也较对称,其位温和示踪物浓度的概率密度函数分布也比浮力驱动的边界层中的平直。对湍流动能收支的分析也表明风切变对湍流动能有重要影响,尤其对夹卷层中的湍流动能切变产生项影响较大。示踪物浓度的概率密度函数垂直分布显示,浮力驱动的边界层中示踪物浓度随高度变化较小,而浮力和风切变共同驱动的边界层中示踪物浓度随高度递减,但是示踪物传输的高度比较高。 相似文献

Thermal stability changes the properties of the turbulent atmospheric boundary layer, and in turn affects the behaviour of wind-turbine wakes. To better understand the effects of thermal stability on the wind-turbine wake structure, wind-tunnel experiments were carried out with a simulated convective boundary layer (CBL) and a neutral boundary layer. The CBL was generated by cooling the airflow to 12–15 °C and heating up the test section floor to 73–75 °C. The freestream wind speed was set at about 2.5 m s?1, resulting in a bulk Richardson number of ?0.13. The wake of a horizontal-axis 3-blade wind-turbine model, whose height was within the lowest one third of the boundary layer, was studied using stereoscopic particle image velocimetry (S-PIV) and triple-wire (x-wire/cold-wire) anemometry. Data acquired with the S-PIV were analyzed to characterize the highly three-dimensional turbulent flow in the near wake (0.2–3.2 rotor diameters) as well as to visualize the shedding of tip vortices. Profiles of the mean flow, turbulence intensity, and turbulent momentum and heat fluxes were measured with the triple-wire anemometer at downwind locations from 2–20 rotor diameters in the centre plane of the wake. In comparison with the wake of the same wind turbine in a neutral boundary layer, a smaller velocity deficit (about 15 % at the wake centre) is observed in the CBL, where an enhanced radial momentum transport leads to a more rapid momentum recovery, particularly in the lower part of the wake. The velocity deficit at the wake centre decays following a power law regardless of the thermal stability. While the peak turbulence intensity (and the maximum added turbulence) occurs at the top-tip height at a downwind distance of about three rotor diameters in both cases, the magnitude is about 20 % higher in the CBL than in the neutral boundary layer. Correspondingly, the turbulent heat flux is also enhanced by approximately 25 % in the lower part of the wake, compared to that in the undisturbed CBL inflow. This study represents the first controlled wind-tunnel experiment to study the effects of the CBL on wind-turbine wakes. The results on decreased velocity deficit and increased turbulence in wind-turbine wakes associated with atmospheric thermal stability are important to be taken into account in the design of wind farms, in order to reduce the impact of wakes on power output and fatigue loads on downwind wind turbines. 相似文献

边界层对流对示踪物抬升和传输影响的大涡模拟研究 总被引：3，自引：1，他引：2
利用"西北干旱区陆气相互作用野外观测实验"加密观测期间敦煌站的实测资料以及大涡模式, 通过一系列改变地表热通量和风切变的敏感性数值试验, 分析了地表热通量和风切变对边界层对流的强度、形式, 以及对对流边界层结构和发展的影响。模拟结果显示风切变一定, 增大地表热通量时, 由于近地层湍流运动增强, 向上输送的热量也较多, 使对流边界层变暖增厚, 而且边界层对流的强度明显增强, 对流泡发展的高度也较高。当地表热通量一定, 增大风切变时, 由于风切变使夹卷作用增强, 将逆温层中的暖空气向下卷入混合层中, 使对流边界层增暖增厚, 但是对流泡容易破碎, 对流的强度也较弱。另外通过在模式近地层释放绝对浓度为100的被动示踪物方法, 用最小二乘法定量地分析了地表热通量和风切变分别与示踪物抬升效率和传输高度的关系。分析结果表明, 风切变小于10.5×10-3 s-1时, 增大地表热通量加强了上层动量的下传, 使示踪物的抬升效率也线性增大;地表热通量小于462.5 W m-2时, 增大风切变减弱了边界层对流的强度, 从而使示踪物的抬升效率减弱。当风切变一定时, 示踪物的平均传输高度随地表热通量增加而增大, 而地表热通量一定, 只有风切变大于临界值时, 示踪物平均传输高度才随风切变的增加而增大, 而临界风速的大小由地表热通量决定。 相似文献

Roll vortices,which often appear when cold air outbreaks over warm ocean surfaces,are an important system for energy and substance exchange between the land surface and atmosphere.Numerical simulations were carried out in the study to simulate roll vortices in the convective boundary layer(CBL).The results indicate,that with proper atmospheric conditions,such as thermal instability in the CBL,stable stratification in the overlying layer and suitable wind shear,and a temperature jump between the two layers in a two-layer atmosphere,convective bands appear after adding initial pulses in the atmosphere.The simulated flow and temperature fields presented convective bands in the horizontal and roll vortices in the crosswind section. The structure of the roll vortices were similar to those observed in the cloud streets,as well as those from analytical solutions.Simulations also showed the influence of depth and instability strength of the CBL, as well as the stratification above the top of the CBL,on the orientation spacing and strength of the roll vortices.The fluxes caused by the convective rolls were also investigated,and should perhaps be taken into account when explaining the surface energy closure gap in the CBL. 相似文献

为研究黄河源区边界层湍流特征及其对物质和能量输送的影响,本文首次采用大涡模拟的方法,对比分析了黄河源区两种不同下垫面上（鄂陵湖和湖边草地）对流边界层（CBL）中精细的湍流结构特征。使用资料为2012年夏季黄河源区鄂陵湖流域野外观测实验的GPS探空资料、涡动相关观测资料。分析表明,模拟的黄河源区草地和湖上CBL的平均结构与实测结果吻合较好,但草地和湖上CBL的湍流结构特征差异较明显。模拟结果显示,草地CBL内湍能收支、湍流特征量的时空分布和湍涡结构特征均与陆地上热力驱动CBL的研究结果一致;湖上CBL顶部存在明显的对流卷特征,且夹卷层的湍流强度比草地的强,而草地近地面湍强则更大。通过改变水平分辨率的模拟试验,发现两个不同下垫面上模拟结果对模式分辨率的敏感性不同,湖面CBL的模拟要选择较高的水平分辨率（50～100 m）,以提高近湖面和夹卷层对湍流动能和湍流通量模拟的精度,也充分模拟出各种尺度的波对湍流通量的累积贡献。考虑到计算时间等影响,模拟草地边界层精细的湍流结构时建议选择网格距为100～200 m。 相似文献

Six state-of-the-art large-eddy simulation codes were compared in Fedorovich et al. (Preprints, 16th American Meteorological Society Symposium on Boundary Layers and Turbulence, 2004b) for three airflow configurations in order to better understand the effect of wind shear on entrainment dynamics in the convective boundary layer CBL). One such code was the University of Oklahoma large-eddy simulation (LES) code, which at the time employed a second-order leapfrog time-advancement scheme with the Asselin filter. In subsequent years, the code has been updated to use a third-order Runge–Kutta (RK3) time-advancement scheme. This study investigates what effect the upgrade from the leapfrog scheme to RK3 scheme has on turbulence statistics in the CBL differently affected by mean wind shear, also in relation to predictions by other LES codes that participated in the considered comparison exercise. In addition, the effect of changing the Courant number within the RK3 scheme is investigated by invoking the turbulence spectral analysis. Results indicate that low-order flow statistics obtained with the RK3 scheme generally match their counterparts from simulations with the leapfrog scheme rather closely. CBL growth rates due to entrainment in the shear-free case were also similar using both timestepping schemes. It was found, however, that care should be given to the choice of the Courant number value when running LES with the RK3 scheme in the sheared CBL setting. The advantages of the largest possible (based on the stability criterion) Courant number were negated by degrading the energy distribution across the turbulence spectrum. While mean profiles and low-order turbulence statistics were largely unaffected, the entrainment rate was over-predicted compared to that reported in the original code-comparison study. 相似文献

Large-eddy simulations (LES) of the Martian and terrestrial convective boundary layers (CBL) are performed to compare the
physical characteristics of simulated convective vertical vortices to those of observed dust devils and vortices. Martian
and terrestrial CBLs are outwardly found to have similar structures and turbulence statistics based on primary mechanisms
for the transfer of energy from the insolated surface. Applying the heating effect of radiative flux divergence in the Martian
atmosphere caused differences in atmospheric vertical profiles in the surface and mixed layers of Mars. In general, the Martian
boundary layer is found to be roughly four times deeper than Earth’s, indicating that convection on Mars is more intense than
that on Earth due to a lower atmospheric density. Performing fine-resolution simulations in quiescent atmospheres of the two
planets, it is found that the general vorticity development in all cases is similar and that the Martian vorticity columns
extend six times higher and are 10 times wider than those on Earth. The accuracy of the simulated vortices as compared with
observed physical characteristics is discussed. This study is a necessary part of a larger effort for the Phoenix Mars mission
and examines the possible formation and maintenance mechanisms for vertical vortices in the Martian convective boundary layer
at the Phoenix lander site. 相似文献

The knowledge of the concentration probability density function (pdf) is of importance in a number of practical applications,
and a Lagrangian stochastic (LS) pdf model has been developed to predict statistics and concentration pdf generated by continuous
releases of non-reactive and reactive substances in canopy generated turbulence. Turbulent dispersion is modelled using a
LS model including the effects of wind shear and along-wind turbulence. The dissipation of concentration fluctuations associated
with turbulence and molecular diffusivity is simulated by an Interaction by Exchange with the Conditional Mean (IECM) micromixing
model. A general procedure to obtain the micromixing time scale needed in the IECM model useful in non-homogeneous conditions
and for single and multiple scalar sources has been developed. An efficient algorithm based on a nested grid approach with
particle splitting, merging techniques and time averaging has been used, thus allowing the calculation for cases of practical
interest. The model has been tested against wind-tunnel experiments of single line and multiple line releases in a canopy
layer. The approach accounted for chemical reactions in a straightforward manner with no closure assumptions, but here the
validation is limited to non-reacting scalars. 相似文献

Parameterization of Entrainment in a Sheared Convective Boundary Layer Using a First-order Jump Model 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

Basic entrainment equations applicable to the sheared convective boundary layer (CBL) are derived by assuming an inversion layer with a finite depth, i.e., the first-order jump model. Large-eddy simulation data are used to determine the constants involved in the parameterizations of the entrainment equations. Based on the integrated turbulent kinetic energy budget from surface to the top of the CBL, the resulting entrainment heat flux normalized by surface heat flux is a function of the inversion layer depth, the velocity jumps across the inversion layer, the friction velocity, and the convection velocity. The developed first-order jump model is tested against large-eddy simulation data of two independent cases with different inversion strengths. In both cases, the model reproduces quite reasonably the evolution of the CBL height, virtual potential temperature, and velocity components in the mixed layer and in the inversion layer.The part of this work was done when the first author visited at NCAR. 相似文献

Wind-Tunnel Experiment on Logarithmic-Layer Turbulence under the Influence of Overlying Detached Eddies 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0

A wind-tunnel experiment was carried out to test a hypothesis that the turbulence characteristics in the near-neutral surface
layer are largely determined by detached eddies from above. The surrogate detached eddies were generated by using an active
turbulence grid installed at the front of the test section and the parameters of the grid were chosen such that the fully
developed logarithmic layer downstream consists of a turbulent flow that has similar normalized intensity to that typically
observed in the near-neutral atmospheric surface layer. The effects of the detached eddies on turbulence characteristics were
investigated by comparison with a second experiment without detached eddies. The influence of the detached eddies on the logarithmic
layer was mostly on the coherent structures; the logarithmic layer with the detached eddies revealed a multi-layer structure
similar to that found in the atmosphere where the lower part of the surface layer is dominated by sweep-like events and the
upper part by ejection-like events. Our experiments show that the mean velocity gradient and the Reynolds shear stress were,
however, not affected significantly by the detached eddies and hence the eddy viscosity. 相似文献

The Influence of Thermally-Induced Mesoscale Circulations on Turbulence Statistics Over an Idealized Urban Area Under a Zero Background Wind 总被引：2，自引：2，他引：0
Weiguo Wang 《Boundary-Layer Meteorology》2009,131(3):403-423
The influence of mesoscale circulations induced by urban-rural differential surface sensible heat flux and roughness on convective
boundary-layer (CBL) flow statistics over an isolated urban area has been examined using large-eddy simulation (LES). Results
are analyzed when the circulations influence the entire urban area under a zero background wind. For comparison, the CBL flow
over an infinite urban area with identical urban surface characteristics under the same background meteorological conditions
is generated as a control case (without circulations). The turbulent flow over the isolated urban area exhibits a mix of streaky
structure and cellular pattern, while the cellular pattern dominates in the control case. The mixed-layer height varies significantly
over the isolated urban area, and can be lower near the edge of the urban area than over the rural area. The vertical profiles
of turbulence statistics over the isolated urban area vary horizontally and are dramatically different from the control case.
The turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) sources include wind shear, convergence, and buoyancy productions, compared to only buoyancy
production in the control case. The normalized vertical velocity variance is reduced compared to the control case except in
the central urban area where it is little affected. The low-level flow convergence is mainly responsible for the enhanced
horizontal velocity variance in the central urban area, while wind shear is responsible for the additional local maximum of
the horizontal velocity variance near the middle of the CBL outside the central area. Parameterizations in the prognostic
equation for TKE used in mesoscale models are evaluated against the LES results over the isolated urban area. We also discuss
conditions under which the urban-induced circulations occur and when they may affect the entire urban area. Given that urban-induced
circulations can influence the entire urban area within hours for an urban area of a realistic size, it is inappropriate to
directly apply empirical relations of turbulence statistics derived under horizontally-homogenous flow conditions to an urban
area. 相似文献

Large-eddy simulations (LES) are performed to investigate the entrainment andthe structure of the inversion layer of the convective boundary layer (CBL) withvarying wind shears. Three CBLs are generated with the constant surface kinematicheat flux of 0.05 K m s-1 and varying geostrophic wind speeds from 5 to 15m s-1. Heat flux profiles show that the maximum entrainment heat flux as afraction of the surface heat flux increases from 0.13 to 0.30 in magnitude withincreasing wind shear. The thickness of the entrainment layer, relative to the depthof the well-mixed layer, increases substantially from 0.36 to 0.73 with increasingwind shear. The identification of vortices and extensive flow visualizations nearthe entrainment layer show that concentrated vortices perpendicular to the meanboundary-layer wind direction are identified in the capping inversion layer for thecase of strong wind shear. These vortices are found to develop along the mean winddirections over strong updrafts, which are generated by convective rolls and to appearas large-scale wavy motions similar to billows generated by the Kelvin–Helmholtzinstability. Quadrant analysis of the heat flux shows that in the case of strong windshear, large fluctuations of temperature and vertical velocity generated by largeamplitude wavy motions result in greater heat flux at each quadrant than that inthe weak wind shear case. 相似文献

The Prandtl, Obukhov, and Monin andObukhov similarity theories are widely used todescribe the structure of turbulence in theatmospheric surface layer. Currently it isunderstood that in strong convection with no or veryweak mean wind the traditional theory breaks down.In particular, the traditional theory implies asingle-valued correspondence between localturbulence statistics and local properties ofthe flow. In very strong convection, this is nottrue because of large-scale ( 10 3 m) coherentstructures, embracing the entire convective boundarylayer (CBL). These structures produce random guststhat crucially affect surface-layer turbulence andmake it dependent on global properties of theflow, such as the CBL depth. In the present paperthe limits of validity of the traditional surface-layer similarity theory are determined and a revisedtheory of fair weather convection in the surface layeris developed by considering the effect of gustiness. It is shownthat the theoretical predictions are consistent withfield data from the TOGA COARE and SCOPEexperiments. 相似文献

The treatment of turbulence closure in atmospheric models is examined in the context of the dry convective boundary layer
(CBL) and the eddy-diffusivity/mass-flux (EDMF) approach. The EDMF approach is implemented into a model called TAPM to use
a coupled two-equation prognostic turbulence closure and the mass-flux approach to represent turbulence in the CBL. This work
also extends the range of turbulence variables that can be derived from the mass-flux component of the model and uses these
along with their values from the prognostic scheme to provide total turbulence fields that can be used to compare to data
and/or to feed into other components of TAPM, including those needed to drive Eulerian and Lagrangian air pollution dispersion
modules. Model results are presented for the afternoon of a simulated summer day and are compared to both laboratory and field
observations in a mixed-layer scaled framework. The results show that the EDMF approach works well within TAPM and can provide
good predictions of mean and turbulence fields, including in the upper levels of the CBL. The EDMF approach has several attractive
features, including the potential to be one approach to unify the treatment of turbulence and dry and moist convection in
atmospheric models. 相似文献

Dispersion of passive tracer in the atmospheric convective boundary layer with wind shears: a review of laboratory and numerical model studies 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2

Summary Paper reviews recent laboratory and numerical model studies of passive gaseous tracer dispersion in the atmospheric convective boundary layer (CBL) with surface and elevated wind shears. Atmospheric measurement data used for validation of these two model techniques are briefly discussed as well. A historical overview is given of laboratory studies of dispersion in the atmospheric CBL. Model studies of tracer dispersion in two CBL types, the (i) non-steady, horizontally homogeneous CBL and (ii) quasi-stationary, horizontally heterogeneous CBL, are reviewed. The discussion is focused on the dispersion of non-buoyant plume emitted from a point source located at different elevations within the CBL. Approaches towards CBL modeling employed in different laboratory facilities (water tanks and wind tunnels) are described. The reviewed numerical techniques include Large Eddy Simulation (LES) and Lagrangian modeling. Numerical data on dispersion in the sheared CBL is analyzed in conjunction with experimental results from wind-tunnel CBLs. 相似文献

A warm on-ice air flow from the open water over the Arctic sea ice in the Fram Straitwas, for the first time, systematically measured on 12 March 1998 by aircraft in thelowest 3 km over a 300-km long distance. The air mass modification and the processesinvolved are discussed.Over the water, air temperature was lower than water temperature so that a convectiveboundary layer (CBL) was present as initial condition. As soon as the CBL passed theice edge, a shallow stable internal boundary layer (IBL) was formed. In the residual CBL, turbulence and pre-existing convective clouds dissolved within about 20 km. Within about the same distance, due to the transition from unstable to stable stratification, the influence of surface friction increased in the IBL and decreased above the IBL with consequent generation of a low-level jet at IBL top. The IBL was strongly stratified with respect to both temperature and wind. The wind shear was around 0.1 s-1 so that the Richardson number in the IBL was subcritical and turbulence was generated. The IBL top grew to about 145 m over 230 km distance. The growth of the IBL was not monotonic and was influenced by (a) inhomogeneous ice surface temperatures causedby both different ice thickness and changes in the cloud conditions, and (b) leads in theice deck. At the front side of the on-ice flow, the air mass boundary between the warmair and the cold Arctic air was sharp (12 K over 10 km) at low levels and tilted withheight. Observations suggest that the stratified IBL was lifted as a slab on top of thecold air. 相似文献
