The Formation of Concentric Eyewalls with Heat Sink in a Simple Tropical Cyclone Model

A linearized, two-layer axisymmetric model analogous to Schubert el al. (1980) is used to simulate the formation of concentric eyewalls in an ideal strong tropical cyclone. By imposing a heat sink near the center of a cyclone the induced perturbation wind, through thermodynamic adjustment to the hea...
