This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rather excessive public preoccupation of the immediate past with what has been labeled the 'environmental crisis' is now fortunately being replaced by a more sus tained and rational concern with pollution problems by public administrators, engineers, and scientists. It is to be expected that members of the engineering profes sion will in the future widely be called upon to design disposal systems for gaseous and liquid wastes which meet strict pollution control regulations and to advise on possible improvements to existing systems of this kind. The engineering decisions involved will have to be based on reasonably accurate quantitative predictions of the effects of pollutants introduced into the atmosphere, ocean, lakes and rivers. A key input for such calculations comes from the theory of turbulent diffusion, which enables the prediction of the concentrations in which pollutants may be found in the neighborhood of a release duct, such as a chimney or a sewage outfall. Indeed the role of diffusion theory in pollution prediction may be likened to the role of applied mechanics (,strength of materials') in the design of structures for adequate strength. At least a certain group of engineers will have to be proficient in applying this particular branch of science to practical problems. At present, training in the theory of turbulent diffusion is available only at the gra duate level and then only in a very few places.

Book Synopsis Turbulence and Diffusion in the Atmosphere by : Alfred K. Blackadar
Download or read book Turbulence and Diffusion in the Atmosphere written by Alfred K. Blackadar and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book grew out of an introductory course that I was invited to teach on a number of occasions to senior and graduate level students at the University of Kid. I have cherished these opportunities in part because I was never required to conduct examinations or give grades. For the students, however, my good fortune presented special problems that induced my sympathy: in addition to having to contend with a foreign language, they would eventually have to confront an examiner with his own ideas about what they should have learned. Although I always left a copy of my lecture notes with this person, they were too sketchy to be of much use. The present book is an attempt to solve some of these problems. The content is intended to be as broad as possible within the limitations of an introductory one-semester course. It aims at providing an insightful view of present understanding, emphasizing the methods and the history of their development. In particular I have tried to expose the power of intuitive reasoning - the nature of tensor invariants, the usefulness of dimensional analysis, and the relevance of scales of physical quantities in the inference of relationships. I know of no other subject that has benefited more from these important tools, which seem to be widely neglected in the teaching of more fundamental disciplines.
Book Synopsis Hamiltonian Chaos and Fractional Dynamics by : George M. Zaslavsky
Download or read book Hamiltonian Chaos and Fractional Dynamics written by George M. Zaslavsky and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2004-12-23 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dynamics of realistic Hamiltonian systems has unusual microscopic features that are direct consequences of its fractional space-time structure and its phase space topology. The book deals with the fractality of the chaotic dynamics and kinetics, and also includes material on non-ergodic and non-well-mixing Hamiltonian dynamics. The book does not follow the traditional scheme of most of today's literature on chaos. The intention of the author has been to put together some of themost complex and yet open problems on the general theory of chaotic systems. The importance of the discussed issues and an understanding of their origin should inspire students and researchers to touch upon some of the deepest aspects of nonlinear dynamics.The book considers the basic principles of the Hamiltonian theory of chaos and some applications including for example, the cooling of particles and signals, control and erasing of chaos, polynomial complexity, Maxwell's Demon, and others. It presents a new and realistic image of the origin of dynamical chaos and randomness. An understanding of the origin of randomness in dynamical systems, which cannot be of the same origin as chaos, provides new insights in the diverse fields of physics,biology, chemistry, and engineering.
Book Synopsis Turbulence and Diffusion by : Oleg G. Bakunin
Download or read book Turbulence and Diffusion written by Oleg G. Bakunin and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-08-15 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended to serve as an introduction to the multidisciplinary ?eld of anomalous diffusion in complex systems such as turbulent plasma, convective rolls, zonal ?ow systems, stochastic magnetic ?elds, etc. In spite of its great importance, turbulent transport has received comparatively little treatment in published mo- graphs. This book attempts a comprehensive description of the scaling approach to turbulent diffusion. From the methodological point of view, the book focuses on the general use of correlation estimates, quasilinear equations, and continuous time random walk - proach. I provide a detailed structure of some derivations when they may be useful for more general purposes. Correlation methods are ?exible tools to obtain tra- port scalings that give priority to the richness of ingredients in a physical pr- lem. The mathematical description developed here is not meant to provide a set of “recipes” for hydrodynamical turbulence or plasma turbulence; rather, it serves to develop the reader’s physical intuition and understanding of the correlation mec- nisms involved.
Book Synopsis Experiments on Turbulent Wakes in a Stable Density-stratified Environment by : Walter P. M. van de Watering
Download or read book Experiments on Turbulent Wakes in a Stable Density-stratified Environment written by Walter P. M. van de Watering and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a laboratory experiment, turbulent mixed regions were generated in a linearly density-stratified fluid and their behavior was studied. Such regions may occur in nature in the atmosphere and in the ocean. Particularly during their early history, the shape of such regions is influenced by the interacting effects of turbulence and buoyancy, culminating in the occurrence of a maximum thickness and subsequent vertical collapse. A Richardson number (equivalent to the ratio of the characteristic turbulence time and the Vaisala period) was found satisfactorily to correlate the data obtained, together with those previously obtained by other investigators with self-propelled bodies. An estimate is made of the degree of mixing that takes place inside a turbulent mixed region during its growth in stably-stratified surroundings: the effectiveness of this mixing determines the ultimate thickness to which the mixing region collapses.

Book Synopsis Atmospheric Turbulence and Air Pollution Modelling by : F.T. Nieuwstadt
Download or read book Atmospheric Turbulence and Air Pollution Modelling written by F.T. Nieuwstadt and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of turbulence in the atmosphere has seen considerable progress in the last decade. To put it briefly: boundary-layer meteorology, the branch of atmospheric science that concentrates on turbulence in the lower atmosphere, has moved from the surface layer into the boundary layer itself. The progress has been made on all fronts: theoretical, numerical and observational. On the other hand, air pollution modeling has not seen such a rapid evolution. It has not benefited as much as it should have from the increasing knowledge in the field of atmospheric turbulence. Air pollution modeling is still in many ways based on observations and theories of the surface layer only. This book aims to bring the reader up to date on recent advances in boundary-layer meteorology and to pave the path for applications in air pollution dispersion problems. The text originates from the material presented during a short course on Atmospheric Turbulence and Air Pollution Modeling held in The Hague during September 1981. This course was sponsored and organized by the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute, xi xii PREFACE to which both editors are affiliated. The Netherlands Government Ministry of Health and Environmental Protection and the Council of Europe also gave support.

Book Synopsis Turbulent Mixing in Nonreactive and Reactive Flows by : S. Murthy
Download or read book Turbulent Mixing in Nonreactive and Reactive Flows written by S. Murthy and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turbulence, mixing and the mutual interaction of turbulence and chemistry continue to remain perplexing and impregnable in the fron tiers of fluid mechanics. The past ten years have brought enormous advances in computers and computational techniques on the one hand and in measurements and data processing on the other. The impact of such capabilities has led to a revolution both in the understanding of the structure of turbulence as well as in the predictive methods for application in technology. The early ideas on turbulence being an array of complicated phenomena and having some form of reasonably strong coherent struc ture have become well substantiated in recent experimental work. We are still at the very beginning of understanding all of the aspects of such coherence and of the possibilities of incorporating such structure into the analytical models for even those cases where the thin shear layer approximation may be valid. Nevertheless a distinguished body of "eddy chasers" has come into existence. The structure of mixing layers which has been studied for some years in terms of correlations and spectral analysis is also getting better understood. Both probability concepts such as intermittency and conditional sampling as well as the concept of large scale structure and the associated strain seem to indicate possibilities of distinguishing and synthesizing 'engulfment' and molecular mixing.

Book Synopsis A One-dimensional Vertical Diffusion Parameter for Extremely Inhomogeneous, Layered Turbulence in Stratified Fluids by : Edmond M. Dewan
Download or read book A One-dimensional Vertical Diffusion Parameter for Extremely Inhomogeneous, Layered Turbulence in Stratified Fluids written by Edmond M. Dewan and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A self-consistent method of characterizing vertical turbulent transport by means of a diffusion parameter is demonstrated for the extremely inhomogeneous case of layered turbulence in a stratified fluid. Between the horizontal turbulent layers, horizontal laminar flow is assumed to occur, and molecular diffusion is ignored. The layers are assumed to occur at random heights with random thickness. An analogy is made between the process of random mixing layers and the finite difference representation of the diffusion equation. It is demonstrated by means of a series of digital computer experiments that, in the case where total mixing takes place within the turbulent layers, the diffusion parameter herein developed is the valid one to use (in contrast to 'eddy diffusivity'). The relation between this inhomogeneous diffusion parameter and practical experimental measurements is given. The motive behind this investigation involves vertical transport of pollution in the environment in general and in the stratosphere in particular.
