Study on the Downburst Field Characteristics under the Influence of Two-Dimensional Continuous Mountains at Different Distance

Abstract:

Downburst is an outburst strong wind on or near the ground, and its wind field characteristics are significantly different from boundary layer winds. Continuous mountains at different distance are one of the main factors for the influence of downburst wind field characteristic. In this thesis, the changes of the wind field characteristics under the influence of continuous mountains at different distance after the downburst happened are studied by CFD numerical simulation. The impact of downburst is analysed and summarized through the charts.
