Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 DEF
An approximation used in atmospheric modelling which neglects variations in the fluid density except in the buoyancy forcing term of the equations of motion. 2, record 1, English, - Boussinesq%20approximation
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
The Boussinesq approximation is basically an assumption of moderate heating reasonably valid in usual experimental situations .... Mechanically, the fluid can be treated as incompressible and all density fluctuations neglected except in the buoyancy term. 3, record 1, English, - Boussinesq%20approximation

Approximation utilisée dans les modèles atmosphériques qui néglige, dans les équations du mouvement, les variations de la densité du fluide, sauf dans le terme de poussée hydrostatique. 2, record 1, French, - approximation%20de%20Boussinesq
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
L'approximation de Boussinesq repose essentiellement sur une hypothèse de chauffage modéré, raisonnablement valide dans les configurations expérimentales habituelles [...] Du point de vue mécanique, le fluide peut être considéré comme incompressible et toutes les fluctuations de densité négligeables excepté dans le terme de poussée d'Archimède. 3, record 1, French, - approximation%20de%20Boussinesq
