We have investigated the role of group velocity in the calculation of pitch-angle diffusion coefficients by electron cyclotron harmonic (ECH) waves in planetary magnetospheres. The assumption which is generally made that the parallel group velocity can be neglected in comparison with particle parallel velocity is examined in detail. It is found that for lowest harmonic band this assumption is quite good. It is found that in general it is not possible to ignore the parallel group velocity. However, for lowest harmonic band this assumption is quite good at low electron temperatures. 相似文献
I INTRODUCTIONThe settlement of particles in fluid has been studied in many fields such as hydraulics, metallurgy andchemistry since the middle of 19 century because of its great importance. Although the settlement ofsingle particle and group settling velocity of uniform particles in still water are relatively well-studied, yetthe settlement of non-uniform particles in flowing water lacks understanding. For instance, Cunningham(1910), Richardson (1954) and Batchelor (1972), have obtained… 相似文献
数值模式能否准确地对降水过程进行预报,很大程度上取决于云微物理参数化方案能否准确地对云内的物理过程进行描述。目前显式云微物理参数化方案中对粒子的下落速度、不同直径粒子的浓度分布两方面的微物理特征,分别使用质量加权下落末速度和粒子谱进行描述。因此,参数化方案中不同的描述方式直接影响数值模式对降水过程的模拟结果。本文使用耦合了一种新的体积水法双参数云微物理参数化方案的WRF模式(Weather Research and Forecasting Model)3.5.1版本对发生在2013年5月8日的一次华南强降水过程进行模拟,分别对Ferrier和Locatelli两种质量加权下落末速度计算方法,以及常数参数和根据东亚地区实际观测结果改进的谱形参数两种粒子谱形参数设置的模拟结果进行分析,并对他们的四组参数组合预报结果进行评估。结果表明:(1)质量加权末速度的改变对降水强度有一定影响;(2)粒子谱形参数对模拟降水的强度和发展都有明显的影响,且谱形参数对本次降水模拟的影响强于下落末速度的影响;(3)Ferrier质量加权末速度和改进的谱形参数的组合试验组对降水的预报效果,相对其他三组试验有较明显的优势。 相似文献
