Moist-entropic vertical adiabatic lapse rates: the standard cases and some lead towards inhomogeneous conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This note is a companion of Marquet and Geleyn (2013, {arXiv:1401.2379 [ao-ph]}), where adiabatic lapse rates $\Gamma_{ns}$ and $\Gamma_{sw}$ are derived for non-saturated ($\Gamma_{ns}$) or saturated ($\Gamma_{sw}$) parcel of moist-air.

The Relative Humidity in an Isentropic Advection–Condensation Model: Limited Poleward Influence and Properties of Subtropical Minima [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
An idealized model of advection and condensation of water vapor is considered as a representation of processes influencing the humidity distribution along isentropic surfaces in the free troposphere.

Absorption of sound in moist air [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1976
Absorption of sound in air has been measured for temperatures from 0° to 100°F, relative humidities from 0% to 100%, at frequencies from 4 to 100 kHz. Measurements were made by propagating pulses of plane waves down a large cylindrical tube. The results have been compared to the value predicted using a new standard for sound absorption in still air ...

Heat Sink Shape and Topology Optimization with Pareto-Vector Length Optimization for Air Cooling

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
Localized air cooling can be used for various purposes, e.g.: electronic equipment cooling, and air conditioning. The paper emphasizes that the connection between the air-flow and cooling has to fulfill a contradictory requirement (low pressure loss and ...

A theoretical model for double diffusive phenomena in cloudy convection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
International audienceUsing classical rheological principles, a model is proposed to depict the molecular diffusion in a moist-saturated dissipative atmosphere: due to the saturation condition existing between water vapor and liquid water in the medium ...

Frost as an insulator [PDF]

open access: yes, 1970
Insulating qualities of frost and mechanisms for using frost in specific applications in controlled experiments are discussed. With available supply of moist air, frost possesses inherent advantage of easy insulation of cryogenic lines and improvement of

Buoyancy Driven Turbulence of Moist Air

open access: yesProcedia IUTAM, 2015
AbstractIn the present experiment we study turbulent moist air convection, where the turbulence is buoyancy driven and characterized by gradient Rayleigh number g(1/ρ0)(Δρ/l)d4/αν ∼ 108, in a square tube of aspect ratio 8. Hot moist air is provided at the bottom of the tube, while the top of the tube is open and is exposed to cold air reservoir. In the
