Ch 12 - Turbulence

Ch 12 - Turbulence. Introduction. A characteristic of most naturally occurring fluids is that they contain some degree of turbulence This means that you can usually find some part of the fluid where the velocities are fluctuating in a chaotic manner. The atmosphere is one of those fluids
