A Regional Mathematical Model of the Wind System of the Earth’s Lower Atmosphere: A Non-Hydrostatic Approach| Chapter 10 | Innovations in Science and Technology Vol. 6

 The goal of this paper is to provide a regional mathematical model of the Earth's lower atmosphere wind system that was constructed at the Polar Geophysical Institute. The mathematical model is based on numerical solutions to gas dynamic equations, and it generates three-dimensional distributions of atmospheric parameters in the height range of 0 to 15 km over a small area of the Earth's surface. The mathematical model is non-hydrostatic, meaning that it calculates both the horizontal and vertical components of the neutral wind velocity using a numerical solution of a generalised Navier-Stokes equation for compressible gas, rather than using the hydrostatic equation. There is also a description of an application of the mathematical model. The results of numerical modelling of the early stages of the origin of tropical cyclonic vortex near an intertropical convergence zone are presented.
