Calculation of Matter and Energy Transfer in an Inviscous Stratified Ocean and Atmosphere
摘要
Abstract
The wave mass transfer associated with the propagation of periodic capillary–gravity flows along the interface between inviscid stratified ocean and atmosphere is analyzed. The problem is considered in a two-dimensional formulation. The contacting fluids are assumed to be uniformly stratified. Each of the media is characterized by its own stratification scale. The wave mass transfer rates in both contacting media are studied, and expressions to describe the trajectories of individual liquid particles in the upper and lower liquids are obtained.
