Sentences with phrase «turbulent eddies»

Turbulent eddy diffusion takes energy up from the ocean rather than down from the surface because warm water is lighter than colder water.

For such flow profiles the processes that sustain and create turbulent eddies fail and the fluid gradually returns to smooth laminar motion and it remained laminar until it reached the end of the pipe.

The stream of smoke is smooth enough for a start, but suddenly breaks into random turbulent eddies whose behaviour is inherently unpredictable.

Again because of the grid - point business, oceanic fluctuations and turbulent eddies smaller than the distance between the grid - points of a model are unknown to that model.

A shot bound for the far post hits a turbulent eddy on the way, and goes lightly outside the post instead of inside.

Zweben and co-authors performed computational analysis of the data from the camera, determining the correlations between different regions of the frames as the turbulent eddies moved through them.

The key, Papamoschou realized, was to do something about the turbulent eddies that build up around supersonic exhaust.

«We should be able to watch the turbulent eddies [spin] around; a bit like watching turbulent water in a stream.»

In UP, the cloud - resolving arrays have been upgraded to include sufficient internal resolution to explicitly generate the turbulent eddies that form marine stratocumulus and trade cumulus clouds.

We may believe, for example, that the motion of the unsaturated portion of the atmosphere is governed by the Navier — Stokes equations, but to use these equations properly we should have to describe each turbulent eddy — a task far beyond the capacity of the largest computer.
