Theory of Turbulence and
Turbulent Transport in the
Atmosphere
A.P. TRUNEV, Sochi Research Centre of the Russian Academy of
Sciences, Russia
The constructive theory of turbulence is based
on the simple idea that there are some physical principles which govern
hydrodynamic turbulence. In this book, for the first time, the author
derives a closed equation system for mean turbulent flow, achieved through
a special type of transformation of the Navier-Stokes equation. This is
then used to estimate mean velocity, temperature and impurity
concentration profiles in turbulent stratified flows, in boundary layers
over rough surfaces with 2-D and 3-D roughness elements and in accelerated
flows, as well as turbulent transport of air pollutants in the
atmosphere.
