| | 4 | Duration: 01/12/2008-30/11/2011 \\\\ |
| | 5 | This project generates realistic meteorological scenarios in an existing model for wing circulations in order to study the interaction between the turbulent atmosphere and the wing circulation. \\\\ |
| | 6 | It is of huge relevance to examine the behavior of aircrafts at its known limits especially during approach and therefore to get the feasibility to expand these limits. Experiments are mostly afflicted with excessive risks and costs thus numerical simulations are the alternative and powerful method. The dynamic of the lower turbulent atmosphere needs to be included in these models for a detailed investigation. \\\\ |
| | 7 | The meteorological scenarios are obtained by high-resolution large-eddy simulations. PALM is used to produce these scenarios with the necessary turbulent elements ranging from few meters up to the height of a convective boundary layer. |
