Development and Application of Models and Diagnostics for Geophysical Fluid Flows
(University of Waterloo, 2019-01-07)This thesis presents the development and application of numerical tools for simulating and diagnosing quasi-geostrophic fluid systems. In this thesis we present a new numerical model called SPIQG that is pseudo-spectral ... -
Experimental Investigation of a Normally Impinging Planar Jet
(University of Waterloo, 2017-12-08)Impinging jets are commonly employed in engineering applications, such as cooling and drying processes, requiring relatively high local transport properties. Flow development of a planar impinging jet and the effect of ... -
An exploration of isolated vortex collisions
(University of Waterloo, 2021-10-27)Vortices are ubiquitous in fluid dynamics, and their interactions are critical in various natural and engineering phenomena, such as the turbulence cascade and unsteady fluid loading on structures. This thesis focuses on ...
