Laboratory Observations of Turbulence Over 3d Dunes

Turbulent Variances Animations



Turbulent kinetic energy image

Animations of planar slices through the flow field were created from nearly 3000 individual TIFF frames and may be accessed from the field of choices below. All animations were rendered on a Macintosh "beige" G3/300 using QuickTime Pro 5.0, at 6 fps using the Sorenson3 codec.

Please choose a run number (T2 - shallow flow, T3 - deep flow) and plane orientation (XY, XZ, or YZ) below or go back to the main animations page:



U Variance
Run T2: XY XZ YZ
Run T3: XY XZ YZ


V Variance
Run T2: XY XZ YZ
Run T3: XY XZ YZ


W Variance
Run T2: XY XZ YZ
Run T3: XY XZ YZ


Turbulent Kinetic Energy
Run T2: XY XZ YZ
Run T3: XY XZ YZ
