Abstract [en]

Cloud droplet dynamics is an important part of cloud physics. This element of cloud physics analyses the features of each droplet, including its size distribution, probability density and mean saturation. The cloud's structure is significantly important for the Earth's atmosphere and this structure is affected by changes in the droplet's micro-physical properties. In order to investigate and understand the dynamics of cloud droplets in both the high and low vortex areas, data obtained from Direct Numeric Simulations (DNS) are utilized. Data generated from simulations of cumulus clouds, which are defined as low-level clouds located between 800 and 1200 m above the surface of the earth. DNS data reveals complex droplet dynamics on a scale that is three-dimensional. When employing conventional machine learning methods, the processing of data relating to dynamic droplets requires a substantial amount of CPU resources. In this study, we discussed the advantages of using quantum mechanisms in cloud physics in order to investigate the complicated nature of cloud droplets. The use of quantum computing in the study of droplet dynamics using the quantum k-mean approach was further investigated in the discussion. Quantum machine learning is used to study the micro-physical characteristics of cloud droplets in order to investigate the effect that droplet dynamics have on the overall structure of clouds. The current topic of discussion delves more into the specifics of how data relating to DNS can be processed by an analog quantum computer in order to deal with enormous amounts of data in this specific area of research.
