A numerical formulation for incompressible flows with stable stratification is developed using the framework of variational multiscale methods. In the proposed formulation, both density and temperature stratification are handled in a unified manner. The formulation is augmented with weakly-enforced essential boundary conditions and is suitable for applications involving moving domains, such as fluid–structure interaction. The methodology is tested using three numerical examples ranging from flow-physics benchmarks to a simulation of a full-scale offshore wind-turbine rotor spinning inside an atmospheric boundary layer. Good agreement is achieved with experimental and computational results reported by other researchers. The wind-turbine rotor simulation shows that flow stratification has a strong influence on the dynamic rotor thrust and torque loads.

Abstract. Application of the Brown-Samelson theorem, which shows that particle motion is integrable in a class of vorticity-conserving, two-dimensional incompressible flows, is extended here to a class of explicit time dependent dynamically balanced flows in multilayered systems. Particle motion for nonsteady two-dimensional flows with discontinuities in the vorticity or potential vorticity fields (modon solutions) is shown to be integrable. An example of a two-layer modon solution constrained by observations of a Gulf Stream ring system is discussed.

Incompressible Fluid Flows

The lattice-Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) method has been used to simulate fluid flow in the nearly incompressible limit. But for the completely incompressible flows, two special approaches should be applied to the general model, for the steady and unsteady cases, respectively. Introduced by Zou et al.,1 the method for steady incompressible flows will be described briefly in this paper. For the unsteady case, we will show, using a simple numerical example, the need to solve a Poisson equation for pressure.
