本文研究了热强迫涡中的轴对称平衡流动,其中摩擦入流被限制在薄边界层内。在边界层以上,绝对角动量1/2fR 2 =rv+1/2fr 2是守恒的。我们将R称为势能半径,即,粒子必须移动的半径(保持绝对角动量),以便将其切向分量v变为零。本文以R为因变量,对Eliassen平衡涡模型的方程进行了讨论。接下来,我们将实际半径r和潜在半径R的作用颠倒过来,即,我们把R当作自变量,r当作因变量。引入横向环流的变换分量(u ~*,w ~*),得到了变换后的Eliassen平衡涡方程,它与原方程的区别在于:1)径向坐标为R,导致正相对涡度区的拉伸和负相对涡度区的收缩。
Abstract We consider the axisymmetric balanced flow occurring in a thermally forced vortex in which the frictional inflow is confined to a thin boundary layer. Above the boundary layer the absolute angular momentum ½fR2=rv+½fr2 is conserved. We refer to R as the potential radius, i.e., the radius to which a particle must be moved (conserving absolute angular momentum) in order to change its tangential component v to zero. Using R as one of the dependent variables we review the equations of the Eliassen balanced vortex model. We next reverse the roles of the actual radius r and the potential radius R, i.e., we treat R as an independent variable and r as a dependent variable. Introducing transformed components (u*, w*) of the transverse circulation we obtain the transformed Eliassen balanced vortex equations, which differ from the original equations in the following respects: 1) the radial coordinate is R which results in a stretching of positive relative vorticity regions and a shrinking of negative relati...
