BB86 Configurations (Layer 1: 500m)

Comparison of momtum2 and momtum4, especially use of visco2/veldf2 or visco4/veldf4:

Fig 1: Total Kin. Energy (kg.s-2) for completed experiments.

Fig 2: Kin. Energy for each layer for 070 (momtum2) and 080 (momtum4) in m2/s2 on top and in kg.s-2 on the bottom. Both experiments only use veldf2 and visco2.

Fig 3: Kin. Energy for each layer for 092 (momtum2) and 102 (momtum4) in m2/s2 on top and in kg.s-2 on the bottom. Both experiments only use visco4 and veldf4.
