Resolved turbulence characteristics in large-eddy simulations nested within mesoscale simulations using the weather research and forecasting model
(2014)
One-way concurrent nesting within the Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF) is examined for conducting large-eddy simulations (LES) nested within mesoscale simulations. Wind speed spectra and resolved turbulent ...
A framework for water and carbon footprint analysis of national electricity production scenarios
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017)
While carbon footprint reduction potential and energy security aspects of renewable and non-renewable resources are widely considered in energy policy their effects on water resources are mostly overlooked. This research ...
A numerical study of the laminar necklace vortex system and its effect on the wake for a circular cylinder
(Amer Inst Physics, 2012)
Large eddy simulation (LES) is used to investigate the structure of the laminar horseshoe vortex (HV) system and the dynamics of the necklace vortices as they fold around the base of a circular cylinder mounted on the flat ...
Modeling of Wind Effects on Stratified Flows in Open Channels: A Model for the Istanbul Strait (Bosphorus)
(2016)
Stratified flows in open channels arise as a result of density or surface level differences. If the channel is connected to a basin at one or both ends, strong winds originating from the basin cause the "wind setup" effect ...
Flow Structure in a Shallow Mixing Layer Developing over 2-D Dunes
(E D P Sciences, 2018)
A high resolution Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) are used to characterize the evolution of a shallow mixing layer developing between two parallel streams in a long open channel over two-dimensional (2D) dunes. The study ...
Large Eddy Simulation of Wind Flow over A Realistic Urban Area
(MDPI, 2020)
A high-resolution large eddy simulation (LES) of wind flow over the Oklahoma City downtown area was performed to explain the effect of the building height on wind flow over the city. Wind flow over cities is vital for ...
