Front dynamics and entrainment of finite circular gravity currents on an unbounded uniform slope

We report on the dynamics of circular finite-release Boussinesq gravity currents on a uniform slope. The study comprises a series of highly resolved direct numerical simulations for a range of slope angles between 5 and 20. The simulations were fixed at Reynolds number Re= 5000 for all slopes consid...
