Turbulent Mixing in Buoyancy-Modified Flows

将通过实验确定速度， 湍流环境中浮力羽流的浓度场 交叉流动，并在稳定的密度界面上混合， 一个推进的盐水楔 将使用LDV测量速度 使用具有密度差异但匹配的流体的诊断 折射率 这两种配置都非常重要 在大气和海洋环境中的湍流传输。 研究结果将应用于 用于设计和分析的计算机代码，以及湍流中的计算机代码 建模验证

An experimental determination will be made of the velocity and concentration fields of buoyant plumes in an ambient turbulent cross-flow, and of mixing across the stable density interface of an advancing saline wedge. Velocities will be measured with LDV diagnostics using fluids with density differences but matched index of refraction. Both configurations are of key importance in turbulent transport in the atmosphere and marine environment. The results of the research will find application both in computer codes for design and analysis, and in turbulence modeling validation.
