Ground Effects

Proposals are made for modelling the pressure-containing correlations which appear in the transport equations for Reynolds stress and heat flux in a simple way which accounts for gravitational effects and the modification of the fluctuating pressure field by the presence of a wall. The predicted changes in structure are shown to agree with Young's (1975) measurements in a free stratified shear flow and with the Kansas data on the atmospheric surface layer.

Kinetic Energy Budget

    ABSTRACT. The various tenns of the turbulent kinetic energy budget in the surface layer over Jodhpur, India have been worked out and compared with established similarity relations. The turbulent production and dissipation tend to balance under moderately unstable conditions for most of the runs considered for investigation.
