Abstract: The growth of cloud droplets by diffusion of water vapor in a three-dimensional homogeneous isotropic turbulent flow is considered. Within a simple model of advection and condensation, the dynamics and growth of millions ...

Abstract: Turbulent fluctuations of both velocity and temperature fields, issuing from high-resolution large-eddy simulations, have been analyzed in convective boundary layers. The numerically simulated flows are strongly anisotropic ...

Abstract: large-eddy simulation model is adopted to investigate the evolution of scalars transported by atmospheric cloud-free convective boundary layer flows. Temperature fluctuations due to the ground release of sensible heat and ...
