Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study investigated wind turbulence effects on dune sand transport through field experiment of three dimensional wind velocity and aeolian sand flux. Horizontal turbulence intensity has a negative relationship with mean horizontal wind velocity and also with the aeolian sand flux in various wind conditions. The spatial wind field during the experiment was simulated with large eddy simulation (LES) and the results show wind characteristics reasonably consistent with measured ground elevation change. However, the results also demonstrate that accurate simulation of vertical wind velocity and both horizontal and vertical turbulence intensity in the field is a great challenge compared to simulation of horizontal velocity.
