Book A Survey of the Turbulence in the Marine Surface Layer for the Operation of Low Reynolds Number Aircraft

Download or read book A Survey of the Turbulence in the Marine Surface Layer for the Operation of Low Reynolds Number Aircraft written by H. W. Tieleman and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The design and operation of remotely piloted aircraft at low-Reynolds numbers an at extremely low altitudes above the ocean requires low level wind input data. Surface winds and gusts are known to have a strong influence on the operation of aircraft near the surface and can cause serious control problems. In general, cross winds, wind shear and gusts encountered by low-flying aircraft pose significant problems in their operation. Although numerous experimental studies have been made in the surface layer and boundary layer over the ocean, the ability to apply the currently available information to the design and operation of aircraft is limited. This report reviews the current experimental knowledge of the marine atmospheric surface layer and discusses the nature and quality of the reported data as well as their applicability as input to the design and operation of low-flying aircraft.

Book Springer Handbook of Atmospheric Measurements

Download or read book Springer Handbook of Atmospheric Measurements written by Thomas Foken and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 1761 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This practical handbook provides a clearly structured, concise and comprehensive account of the huge variety of atmospheric and related measurements relevant to meteorologists and for the purpose of weather forecasting and climate research, but also to the practitioner in the wider field of environmental physics and ecology. The Springer Handbook of Atmospheric Measurements is divided into six parts: The first part offers instructive descriptions of the basics of atmospheric measurements and the multitude of their influencing factors, fundamentals of quality control and standardization, as well as equations and tables of atmospheric, water, and soil quantities. The subsequent parts present classical in-situ measurements as well as remote sensing techniques from both ground-based as well as airborn or satellite-based methods. The next part focusses on complex measurements and methods that integrate different techniques to establish more holistic data. Brief discussions of measurements in soils and water, at plants, in urban and rural environments and for renewable energies demonstrate the potential of such applications. The final part provides an overview of atmospheric and ecological networks. Written by distinguished experts from academia and industry, each of the 64 chapters provides in-depth discussions of the available devices with their specifications, aspects of quality control, maintenance as well as their potential for the future. A large number of thoroughly compiled tables of physical quantities, sensors and system characteristics make this handbook a unique, universal and useful reference for the practitioner and absolutely essential for researchers, students, and technicians.

Book Spatial and Temporal Variations of the Turbulent Fluxes of Heat  Momentum  and Water Vapor Over Lake Ontario During IFYGL

Download or read book Spatial and Temporal Variations of the Turbulent Fluxes of Heat Momentum and Water Vapor Over Lake Ontario During IFYGL written by Bradford R. Bean and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1972 IFYGL 'alert' periods, the highly instrumented NOAA/RFF/DC-6 aircraft was used to record the time series of wind, temperature, and water vapor at heights ranging from 18 to 300 m above the surface of Lake Ontario. The aircraft was equipped with a gust probe system, a fast response thermistor, a microwave refractometer (for water vapor measurements), and a downward-pointing IR system; as well as the normal in-flight measurement of standard meteorological parameters. The time series records have been found to display a highly intermittent nature. This is especially the case for evaporation when, in the fall, Polar Continental outbreaks move across the lake. In particular, such an outbreak of cold dry air moved across the lake at 12-15 m s−1 on 9 October 1972. This resulted in the air temperature at 30 m above the lake to drop from 12 to 6 C while the evaporation rate increased to more than 1 cm day−1. This may be compared with the 0.5 cm day−1 normal evaporation observed in the tropics during BOMEX. Furthermore, IR lake surface temperatures show cold regions (~5 C) along the north shore, presumably due to strong upwelling, while the center and south shore regions of the lake were of the order of 12 to 15C. The turbulent, flux quantities of momentum, heat, and water vapor were obtained by the eddy correlation technique and their spectra were determined at several locations over the lake surface for 3-minute sampling lengths. At the aircraft speed of 92 m s−1, this represents a flight path of ~17 km for both along wind and constant fetch patterns. The spectra demonstrate the tendency for the peak value to march to higher wavelengths with increasing height.
