A one-dimensional cloud model with trimodal convective outflow
(American Meteorological Society, 2009)The author describes a one-dimensional cloud model designed to investigate the relationships between stratiform downdrafts, congestus outflow, stability, and relative humidity in the tropical lower troposphere. In the ... -
Origin of lapse rate changes in the upper tropical troposphere
(American Meteorological Society, 2002)Vertical motions in clouds arise from a variety of thermodynamic processes, including latent heat release, evaporative cooling, melting, and cloud radiative heating. In the Tropics, the net upward vertical mass flux from ... -
A Study of Natural Convection Onset and Melting Process of Phase Change Materials in Horizontal Cylindrical Enclosures
(2020-08-27)Phase change materials (PCMs) are a promising medium to store thermal energy in latent heat energy storage systems. While these materials offer a large storage density, their thermal conductivities are low and offer ...
