Electrodynamics Hydrodynamics penetration depth

 

  These three quantities — the skin depth, the viscous penetration depth, and the thermal penetration depth — share the same mathematical structure.  Each describes how far an oscillatory disturbance can penetrate into a dissipative medium. In electromagnetics, the skin depth measures how deeply a time-harmonic field penetrates into a conductor.
  In fluid mechanics, the viscous penetration depth gives the thickness of the oscillatory viscous layer near a vibrating boundary.
  In heat transfer, the thermal penetration depth describes how far a periodic temperature variation can propagate into a medium. In all three cases, the penetration depth is determined by the competition between diffusivity and oscillation frequency, and scales as






《Physical Hydrodynamics》, §4.5.4 Oscillating flows in a viscous fluid
“ In Physical Hydrodynamics (§4.5.4), the oscillatory viscous boundary-layer problem is explicitly described as analogous to the skin effect in electrical conduction and to the penetration of seasonal temperature variations into the ground.”





熊野本宮大社新茶祭

 熊野本宮大社

紀伊國熊野本宮大社舉行新茶祭,境內的茶田裡,身穿白衣、緋紅袴,並繫著紅色襷帶的巫女們,正在採摘當地特產「音無茶」的新芽。

熊野本宮大社的主祭神即為熊野大神家津美御子。



世界地球日

今天是世界地球日,就以作為Lokadhātrī的白衣觀音手持地球來紀念此日!
