4 | | ???By default, PALM has six prognostic quantities: the velocity components ''u'', ''v'', ''w'' on a Cartesian grid, the potential temperature ''θ'', specific humidity ''q'',,v,, or a passive scalar ''s'', and the SGS turbulent kinetic energy (SGS-TKE) ''e''. The separation of resolved scales and SGS is implicitly achieved by averaging the governing equations over discrete Cartesian grid volumes as proposed by [#schumann1975 Schumann (1975)]. Moreover, it is possible to run PALM in a direct numerical simulation mode by switching off the prognostic equation for the SGS-TKE and setting a constant eddy diffusivity. For a list of all symbols and parameters, that we will introduce below, see the following Table 1 and 2.??? |
