The Moist Available Energy of a Conditionally Unstable Atmosphere. Part II: Further Analysis of GATE Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The generalized convective available potential energy (GCAPE) observed during GATE has been analyzed using the Lagrangian algorithm of Lorenz, as modified by Randall and Wang. The effects of ice are included and are discussed ...
A Cumulus Parameterization Based on the Generalized Convective Available Potential Energy
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper reports tests of a cumulus parameterization in which the reference state associated with the generalized convective available potential energy (GCAPE) is chosen as the end-state of the convective adjustment. The ...
The Moist Available Energy of a Conditionally Unstable Atmosphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The concept of ?moist available energy,? defined by Lorenz, is applied to study the potential energy available for cumulus convection in a conditionally unstable atmosphere. A modified version of Lorenz's parcel-moving ...
Optimum Design and Performance Simulation of a Multi-Device Integrated System Based on a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) based on syngas are a promising technology for electric vehicle applications. To increase the fuel conversion efficiency, the low-temperature waste heat from the PEMFC is absorbed ...
Comparison of Tropical Ocean–Atmosphere Fluxes with the NCAR Community Climate Model CCM3
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The properties of the marine boundary layer produced by the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Community Climate Model version 3 (CCM3) are compared with observations from two experiments in the central and ...
