Zusammenfassung |
The transfer of a passive tracer in inhomogeneous turbulent
flow is investigated. Starting from Lumley's constitutive equation, we derived an
expression for the ratio between the effective eddy diffusivity K and eddy diffusivity
K
as a function of three length scales characterizing the local turbulence structure, flux
variations and turbulence inhomogeneities. The theoretical predictions for the
one-dimensional case of inhomogeneous symmetric turbulence were validated through a
comparison with the numerical results of a Lagrangian particle model simulating a wind
tunnel experiment of dispersion in the lee of an idealized two-dimensional hill. A
qualitative agreement is reached between the theoretical evaluation of K and the value
obtained from the numerical simulation. |
