PPT-1.4 thermal wind balance

geostrophic wind hypsometric eqn plug 2 into 1 finite difference expression this is the thermal wind an increase in wind with height due to a temperature gradient greater thickness lower thickness. Three real forces . (gravity, pressure gradient, and friction) push the air around. Two apparent forces . due to rotation (Coriolis and centrifugal). Large-scale flow is dominated by gravity/pressure and Coriolis … . Geostrophic. Balance. Thermal Wind. Effect . of Friction. Geostrophic. Balance. Pressure gradient force balances . Coriolis. force. L. H. Flow is counterclockwise around low pressure systems (cyclones) and clockwise around high pressure systems (anticyclones). Thermal balance and control.. Introduction [See F&S, Chapter 11]. We will look at how a spacecraft gets heated. How it might dissipate/generate heat. The reasons why you want a temperature stable environment within the spacecraft.. You Can Build!.

Atmospheric Sciences 370. Heights and winds aloft are closely related by the geostrophic and gradient wind relationships. For 80%+ of the atmosphere outside of the inner tropics, the geostrophic relationship is quite good..
