Enthalpy Flux in Extreme Winds and the Roles of Sensible, Latent and Spray Heat Transfer Processes

Abstract

The long-term-goals are: To determine the coefficients for sensible and latent heat transfer (Stanton and Dalton numbers) in high and extreme winds. To understand, quantify and parameterize the role of spray in these fluxes.
