What is perturbation technique?
What is perturbation technique? A mathematical technique to eliminate linear terms in an equation in order to retain the nonlinear (turbulence) terms. Variables such as potential temperature (θ) or velocity (U) can be partitioned into mean (slowly varying) and perturbation (rapidly varying) components. Why do we use perturbation? Perturbation is used to find the roots […]
