Large-scale vortices and zonal flows in spherical rotating convection
Yufeng Lin, Andrew Jackson
Motivated by understanding the dynamics of stellar and planetary interiors, we have performed a set of direct numerical simulations of Boussinesq convection in a rotating full sphe…
Strong field, scale separated, ultra low viscosity dynamos
Andrey Sheyko, Christopher Finlay, Jean Favre +1
The mechanism by which the Earth's magnetic field is generated is thought to be thermal convection in the metallic liquid iron core. Computational considerations previously restric…
Precession-driven dynamos in a full sphere and the role of large scale cyclonic vortices
Yufeng Lin, Philippe Marti, Jerome Noir +1
Precession has been proposed as an alternative power source for planetary dynamos. Previous hydrodynamic simulations suggested that precession can generate very complex flows in pl…
Applications of a finite-volume algorithm for incompressible MHD problems
S. Vantieghem, A. Sheyko, A. Jackson
We present the theory, algorithms and implementation of a parallel finite-volume algorithm for the solution of the incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations using unstruct…
Experimental study of fluid flows in a precessing cylindrical annulus
Yufeng Lin, Jerome Noir, Andrew Jackson
The flow inside a precessing fluid cavity has been given particular attention since the end of the 19th century in geophysical and industrial contexts. The present study aims at sh…
Kinematic dynamo in spherical Couette flow
Xing Wei, Andrew Jackson, Rainer Hollerbach
We investigate numerically kinematic dynamos driven by flow of electrically conducting fluid in the shell between two concentric differentially rotating spheres, a configuration no…
