Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study explored the use of automatic identification system (AIS) data to assess the sheltering effectiveness of three inlet structures in the coastal United States: Columbia River at the border of Oregon and Washington; ...
Early Time Modifications to the Buoyancy-Drag Model for Richtmyer–Meshkov Mixing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Buoyancy-Drag model is a simple model, based on ordinary differential equations, for estimating the growth in the width of a turbulent mixing zone at an interface between fluids of different densities due to Richtmyer–Meshkov ...
An Investigation Into Nonlinear Growth Rate of Two Dimensional and Three Dimensional Single Mode Richtmyer–Meshkov Instability Using an Arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian Algorithm
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents an investigation into the use of a moving mesh algorithm for solving unsteady turbulent mixing problems. The growth of a shock induced mixing zone following reshock, using an initial setup comparable ...
Computational Studies of Two Dimensional Rayleigh Taylor Driven Mixing for a Tilted Rig
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A timedependent, incompressible, turbulent mixing problem, referred here to as the “tiltedrig,†is defined, based results from an experiment that involved the introduction of a largescale overturning motion, with a ...
Phase Analysis of Scale Deposition in Boiler Tubes Utilizing Steam-Assisted Gravity Drainage Produced Water
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Scale buildup on water-side heat transfer surfaces poses a potential operating challenge for steam-assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) boilers used in the production of bitumen since produced water, which has a high dissolved ...
Inference of Cirrus Cloud Properties Using Satellite-observed Visible and Infrared Radiances. Part II: Verification of Theoretical Cirrus Radiative Properties
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A methodology is developed to apply a parameterization of radiative transfer calculations to satellite analyses of cirrus clouds. Cloud heights and optical depths are derived from visible and infrared window measurements ...
Integration of Satellite and Surface Data Using a Radiative–Convective Oceanic Boundary-Layer Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A mixing-line boundary-layer model is used to retrieve cloud-top height from satellite-derived cloud-top temperature using 700-hPa National Meteorological Center (NMC) analyses and the Comprehensive Ocean and Atmosphere ...
Examination of New CERES Data for Evidence of Tropical Iris Feedback
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: New data products from the Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES) instrument on the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission Satellite have been examined in the context of the recently proposed adaptive tropical ...
Examination of the Relationship between Outgoing Infrared Window and Total Longwave Fluxes Using Satellite Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The relationship between narrowband and broadband thermal radiances is explored to determine the accuracy of outgoing longwave radiation derived from narrowband data. Infrared window (10.2?12.2 ?m) data from the Geostationary ...
Validation of the CERES/TRMM ERBE-Like Monthly Mean Clear-Sky Longwave Dataset and the Effects of the 1998 ENSO Event
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Clouds and the Earth?s Radiant Energy System (CERES) is a new National Aeronautics and Space Administration space-borne measurement project for monitoring the radiation environment of the earth?atmosphere system. The ...
