Abstract: | Summary For the inclined stationary internal atmospheric boundary as is the upper boundary of the bora flow down the lee-side slope of an orographic obstacle, the dynamic forces must be appropriately balanced, similar as at the atmospheric frontal surfaces. Starting from this idea, a model for the bora flow conditions was developed. Introducing some special suppositions, the model finally consists of four partial differential equations, which are solved numerically.Numerical experiments with the model by changing parameters such as friction and warm air stratification, as well as initial values of the flow: thickness, velocity, inclination and air mass temperature difference, show interesting results and finings. The shape of upper bora boundary and the distribution of the bora velocity above and downward the slope are graphycally presented, as they develop under the influence of different values of the mentioned parameters.With 5 Figures |
