中性稳定剪切层中的波相互作用:规则和奇异模态,以及非模态增长

Wave interactions in neutrally stable shear layers: regular and singular modes, and non-modal growth

Eyal Heifetz, Anirban Guha, Jeff Carpenter

摘要:

在最近的一封信中,Carpenter和Guha(2019)将没有拐点的光滑二维剪切剖面的中性模式与其相应的分段线性剖面的模式进行了比较。光滑剖面中的规则模式被认为是对数值分辨率最不敏感的模式,而奇异模式则表现出很高的敏感性。在这里,我们提供了一个物理解释,使用波相互作用的方法来理解的结构和行为的规则和奇异模式。规则模态是位于剪切剖面平均涡度梯度集中处的界面Rossby波。与此相反,奇异模式的奇异涡扰动,被动平流的平均流在不同级别的配置文件,和界面Rossby波之间的单向锁相相互作用的结果。我们发现,这种单向相互作用也可以导致持续的非模态增长的界面Rossby波,不能被捕获的标准特征值分析。

英文摘要:

In a recent letter, Carpenter and Guha (2019) compared the neutral modes of a smooth two dimensional shear profile without an inflection point to the modes of its corresponding piecewise-linear profile. The regular mode in the smooth profile was identified as the one least sensitive to the numerical resolution, while the singular modes displayed high sensitivity. Here we provide a physical interpretation using a wave interaction approach for understanding the structure and behavior of both the regular and singular modes. The regular modes are the interfacial Rossby waves located at the concentrated mean vorticity gradient of the shear profile. In contrast, the singular modes result from a one way phase-locking interaction between singular vorticity disturbances, passively advected by the mean flow at different levels of the profile, and the interfacial Rossby waves. We show that this one way interaction can also lead to a sustained non-modal growth of the interfacial Rossby waves that cannot be captured by standard eigenvalue analysis.
