Energy page 1 The energy density per unit volume of the atmosphere is the sum of internal, potential, and kinetic energies: ρ(CvT + gz + v2/2). Internal and potential energies are closely coupled. When air in a hydrostatic atmosphere is heated, it expands, doing work against the local pressure, and converting some of the heat into potential energy. Raising the temperature of a parcel by δT requires CvδT of internal energy and RδT of work. The sum (Cv + R)δT ≡ CpδT is called the enthalpy. The quantity which is conserved by a parcel moving in a hydrostatic atmosphere is the dry static energy. It includes the enthalpy rather than the internal energy. The energy flux is the product of the dry static energy and the velocity vector: ρ(CpT + gz + 1

2v2)

v. The conservation law for atmospheric energy density says that the rate of change of energy in a volume plus the flux out of the volume equals the diabatic heating rate Q ∂ ∂t{ρ(CvT + gz + 1 2v2)} + ∇ · {ρ(CpT + gz + 1 2v2) v} = ρQ
