论文摘要
在最近的一篇论文中,卢梭·里兹(Rousseau-Rizzi)和伊曼纽尔(Emanuel,2019)提出了表面最大飓风速度的上限。该推导是基于对最大风速点的无限狭窄(差分)卡诺循环的考虑。在这里,我们表明该推导忽略了一个重要的术语,描述了流出中的动能变化。此外,我们强调了适当考虑升级液体水所需的功率的重要性。最后,我们为热和动量表面通量的公式提供了修订,表明如果我们接受Rousseau-Rizzi和Emanuel(2019)所采用的假设,则所得的速度估计并不取决于明智的热量的通量。
In a recent paper Rousseau-Rizzi and Emanuel (2019) presented a derivation of an upper limit on maximum hurricane velocity at the surface. This derivation was based on a consideration of an infinitely narrow (differential) Carnot cycle with the warmer isotherm at the point of the maximum wind velocity. Here we show that this derivation neglected a significant term describing the kinetic energy change in the outflow. Additionally, we highlight the importance of a proper accounting for the power needed to lift liquid water. Finally, we provide a revision to the formula for surface fluxes of heat and momentum showing that, if we accept the assumptions adopted by Rousseau-Rizzi and Emanuel (2019), the resulting velocity estimate does not depend on the flux of sensible heat.
