Mixing, Dissipation Rate, and Their Overturn-Based Estimates in a Near-Bottom Turbulent Flow Driven by Internal Tides
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: irect numerical simulation (DNS) and large-eddy simulation (LES) are employed to study the mixing brought about by convective overturns in a stratified, oscillatory bottom layer underneath internal tides. The phasing of ...
On the Accuracy of Overturn-Based Estimates of Turbulent Dissipation at Rough Topography
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: vidence in support of overturn-based methods, often used to infer turbulent dissipation rate from density profiles, is typically from regions with weaker turbulence than that at rough-topography hotspots. The present work ...
Evaluation of the Performance of Twin Rotor Vertical Axis Wind Turbines Employing Large Eddy Simulations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The current strong global consensus on reducing carbon emissions is a motivation to develop more efficient means of harnessing sustainable sources of energy. Accordingly, research efforts toward the development of more ...
