Abstract: It is proposed that certain long-lived mesoscale convective systems maintain themselves through an interaction between quasi-balanced vertical motions and the diabatic effects of moist convection. Latent heat release, ...

Abstract: The objective of this paper is to assess the impact of the entrainment of aerosol from above the inversion on the microphysical structure and radiative properties of boundary layer clouds. For that purpose, the Los Alamos ...

Abstract: The onedimensional (1D) conduction analytical approaches for a semiinfinite domain, widely adopted in the data processing of transient thermal experiments, can lead to large errors, especially near a corner of solid domain. ...

Abstract: The potential impact of intrusions of polluted air into the Arctic basin on sea ice melting rates and the surface energy budget is examined. This paper extends a previous study to cloud-resolving simulations of the entire ...

Abstract: Determination of a scalable Nusselt number (based on “adiabatic heat transfer coefficient”) has been the primary objective of the most existing heat transfer experimental studies. Based on the assumption that the wall ...

Abstract: The relative casing motion can significantly influence the turbine blade tip aerothermal performance. In this study, experimental investigation was conducted in a newly developed high-speed disk rotor rig which can mimic ...
