OUTER SCALE OF TURBULENCE IN THE ANISOTROPIC BOUNDARY

LAYER

During a period of 40 years we have performed successively the investigations of the effect of low-frequency spectral range of atmospheric turbulence on the optical characteristics. The turbulence models as well as a outer scale of turbulence have been determined and its influence on the characteristics of telescopes and systems of laser beam formations has been investigated too.

In the early 70’s the scientists in Italy (A.Consortini, M. Bertolotti, L. Ronchi), in USA (Ochs, Buser, S.Clifford) and in USSR (V.Pokasov, V.Lukin) almost simultaneously discovered the phenomenon of deviation from the power law and the effect of saturation for the structure phase function. This meant the existence of correlation for phase fluctuations and the need in applying the turbulence spectrum with a finite outer scale Lo. My main papers for subject are:

2. DEVELOPMENT OF THE MODELS OF TURBULENCE SPECTRA (cont.)

• Atmospheric turbulence models with a finite outer scale, such as Greenwood-Tarazino’s, Von Karman’s, Russian model, have found wide usage.

• In 1993 I showed that it is possible to pass from one model to the other:

3. OUTER SCALE OF TURBULENCE AND INSTABILITY PARAMETER

• Measurements of phase structure function in saturation region may to give information for outer scale:

• In experiments we used a homodyne phasometer and obtained the nice tool for measurements of outer scale in near surface region of atmospheric.

• In the experiments also were employed: measurers of the temperature and wind velocity at fixed altitudes, data were used for calculating the temperature structure parameter and instability parameter

3. OUTER SCALE OF TURBULENCE AND INSTABILITY PARAMETER (cont.)

• In 1980 I found that the outer scale of turbulence Lo depends on the thermodynamic stability of the atmosphere.

• In the surface layer of the atmosphere the outer scale of the turbulence can be comparable, on the one hand, with the hight over the underlayer surface and, on the other hand, the scale is dependent on characteristics of thermodynamic instability.

4. INVESTIGATION OF ANISOTROPY OF THE SPECTRUM OF ATMOSPHERIC TURBULENCE IN LOW-FREQUENCY

REGIONTogether with the dependence of theouter scale of turbulence on variationsof meteorological parameters of theatmosphere, there exists anisotropy ofatmospheric turbulent spectra.The properties of inhomogeneities withdimensions exceeding several metersdepend on direction.As a consequence, the characteristics ofsome parameters of optical waves appearto be direction dependent. Three dimensional turbulentatmospheric spectra for optical wavepropagating application is convertedinto two-dimensional one.Actually we take into account two sizesof outer scale along two perpendiculardirection:

The so-called coefficient of anisotropy obtained in the experiment, varied in

the

interval from 0.82 to 2.87 with the mean value 1.85 that indirectly indicated that the optical inhomogeneities, which produce the phase fluctuations, were anisotropic in the large-scale region. The relationship is obvious between the coefficient of anisotropy value and the instability parameter.

The measured values of anisotropy can be explained with the help of the spectrum as a model with two different projections of the outer scale of turbulence into the vertical and horizontal directions.

5. INVESTIGATION OF THE ATMOSPHERIC TURBULENCE DYNAMICS OF THE BASIS OF ASTROCLIMATIC

OBSERVATIONS

We applied the stars motion measurements in focal plane small telescope for

near horizontal atmospheric paths.

Several experiments with point source jitter for propagation along horizontal

paths near ground ( h = 2.5 m) were made.

Under the near surface conditions one can expect a strong anisotropy of the

turbulence that leads to the anisotropy of the jittering process. As a result for

horizontal propagation we have the strong anisotropy:

,)33.0(0 mLmeteo ),6.85.5()1(2*)/( 0203

Thus, the vertical size of large-scale turbulence smaller then horizontal one in (1.4 – 3) times and this level depend from parameter of stability of atmosphere

Then we apply the stars motion measurements in focal plane small telescope for vertical and slant atmospheric paths we used.

• For the stars, observed at small zenith angles the jitter is

• practically isotropic – parameter

• At the same time, observed at large zenith angles is order are

• indicate of strong anisotropy too ( ).

• Thus it implies that:• in the case of vertical propagation (along the zenith direction) the effective

spectra of turbulence practically isotropic,• the anisotropy of the spectrum is maximum near ground surface (observed

optical beams jitter along the horizontal propagation) and determined by the atmospheric instability.

6. HIGH-ALTITUDE OF ATMOSPHERIC TURBULENCE

• To describe the optical radiation propagation at vertical and slant optical paths it is necessary to introduce into account vertical distribution of parameters of atmospheric turbulence. Undoubtedly, the outer scale of the turbulence undergoes significant variations both in the surface layer and at the large altitudes.

• At present, there are exist a lot of models of height profiles L0(h). Some models chosen for the study are presented below:

7. THE MODEL “AVERAGED” OVER THE ENTIRE COLOMN ATMOSPHERE

• The possibility to introduce an efficient outer scale as an integral characteristic of turbulence is of great interest as it can permit one to change the height profile for the outer scale.

• One of the reasons to introduce this parameter is that the applicability of the models of height profiles of atmospheric turbulence is restricted due to their dependence on geographical location. It will also permit one to simplify mathematical calculations connected with the account for influence of the atmospheric turbulence on the phase of optical wave.

• Analysis of the value obtained by different methods for the same height profile demonstrates that its growth i.e.,

• Dr. Borgino alike us suggested to use the effective outer scale for the atmosphere as a whole as a given in formula:

• For the outer scale of turbulence, several models of its vertical profile in the atmosphere were proposed.

• Based on them I calculated the effective outer scale for the atmosphere as a whole for Gurvich model of structure parameter.

• This scale turned out to be about 10-20 meters for the best observatories of the world.

• As can be seen from formula the effective outer scale of turbulence depends on the receiver’s height above the surface .

• However, this height is often taken zero. • Estimates show that the relative error

introduced by substitution of zero• ( = 0) for the real receiver’s height is • on the order of .

• This error becomes significant for large ground-based telescopes, in which the center of the entrance mirror is typically located at the heights of some tens of meters from the underlying surface.

• For example, for the 25m receiver’s height

• = 25 m the error is 20%.

7. THE MODEL “AVERAGED” OVER THE ENTIRE COLOMN ATMOSPHERE (cont.)

• 1. One can introduce the effective outer scale of turbulence as an integral parameter describing the character of atmospheric turbulence along the whole propagation path.

• 2. Introduction of the effective outer scale can considerably simplify mathematical calculations connected with the account for the influence of atmospheric turbulence on the phase of optical wave propagated along vertical atmospheric paths.

• 3. The description accuracy studied demonstrate that the error caused by the change of the height profile of the outer scale for a constant value, i.e., the effective outer scale, considerably varies depending both on the model of a parameter profile and the method of determination.

• 4. The error in determination of the Strehl parameter does not exceed 16% in the situation when the effective outer scale is larger than the diameter of a telescope.

8. Outer scale of anisotropic turbulence

• V.I. Tatarski determines the vertical outer scale from the condition of equality of mean squares of random difference of temperatures and its systematic difference .

• This condition gives

• 1.17,

• In our paper we generalized this expression for the case anisotropic turbulence:

• where is the height, is the function of similarity (

• and are the Monin-Obukhov number and scale), is the temperature scale,

• and are the energy and temperature functions of anisotropy.

8. Outer scale of anisotropic turbulence (cont.)

• From measurements of meteorological characteristics (in the mountain of the Baikal Astrophysical Observatory) on the surface values were reconstructed of outer scale of anisotropic turbulence – in the wide range of local temperature stratifications (from stable to super-strong instable).

• A comparison of experimental and theoretical results of outer scales measurements L0T in mountain region for anisotropic turbulence:

• 1 – experiment (data from spectra on 5/3 dependence),

• 2 – experiment (data from spectra in saturation regime),

• 3 – experiment (data on Tatarski determination),

• 4 – semiempirical theory for anisotropical layer,

• 5 – semiempirical theory for isotropical layer.

• Using an analytical algorithm for atmospheric correction the performance of the Euro50 telescope is analyzed.

• The atmospheric model employed here is the ORM (Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos) 7 layer model with an outer scale distribution.

• Direct estimations of the effective outer scale of turbulence by formula Borgino based on the seven layers models of Cn2 and some assumptions for the vertical distribution L0 give value about 20…40 m, including the turbulence of the ground boundary layer.

• The values of effective outer scale found that at apertures of modern telescopes of several meters the influence of the finite L0 on the energy balance between tip-tilt and higher order modes must be properly taken into account.
