Abstract
The solution of buoyant jets in a calm stratified atmosphere is considered. The Morton model yields a set of differential equations that can be solved in a closed form in a phase space having for coordinates the integral with height of the mass flux, the mass flux, and the derivative with height of the mass flux. By using an approximate expression that relates the mass flux integral with height to a given height, we are able to transfer knowledge of the phase space solution to physical space.
