Abstract: This paper describes El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) interannual variability simulated in the second Hadley Centre coupled model under ?control? and ?greenhouse warming? scenarios. The model produces a very reasonable ...

Abstract: There have been numerous studies of the behavior of shaped film cooling holes for turbine applications. It is known that the introduction of coolant is an unsteady process, and a handful of studies have described and ...

Abstract: The relative importance of initial conditions and boundary conditions in interannual to decadal climate predictability is addressed. A simple framework is developed in which (i) ensembles of climate model simulations with ...

Abstract: In this paper, we describe the design, modeling, and experimental testing of a film cooling scheme employed on an unshrouded high-pressure (HP) rotor casing. The casing region has high thermal loads at both low and high ...

Abstract: The high pressure (HP) rotor tip and overtip casing are often lifelimiting features in the turbine stages of current gas turbine engines. This is due to the high thermal load and high temperature cycling at both low and ...

Abstract: AbstractThe rate of damping of tropical Pacific sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTAs) associated with El Niño events by surface shortwave heat fluxes has significant biases in current coupled climate models [phase 5 ...

Abstract: A simple linear stochastic climate model of extratropical wintertime ocean?atmosphere coupling is used to diagnose the daily interactions between the ocean and the atmosphere in a fully coupled general circulation model. ...
