Climate change, in the framework of the Constructal Law
Clausse, Marc; Meunier, Francis; Reis, A. Heitor; Bejan, AdrianHere we present a simple and transparent alternative to the complex models of earth’s thermal behaviour under time-changing conditions. We show the one-to-one relationship between changes in atmospheric properties and time-dependent changes in temperature and its distribution on earth. The model accounts for convection and radiation, thermal inertia and changes in albedo (ρ) and greenhouse factor (γ). The const...
On the use of the Constructal Law to study Climate Change
Meunier, Francis; Clausse, Marc; Reis, A. Heitor; Bejan, AdrianA simple and transparent model, based on the constructal law, is used to study climate change as a response to changes in atmospheric properties (albedo-- and greenhouse factor –-). This model is first used to study the climate response to present changes in albedo and greenhouse factor. This allows comparing, in terms of energy imbalance and temperature, the climate change observed between 1880 and 2003 and ...
