Turbulent Diamagnetism in Flowing Liquid Sodium

E. J. Spence, M. D. Nornberg, C. M. Jacobson +4

The nature of Ohm's law is examined in a turbulent flow of liquid sodium. A magnetic field is applied to the flowing sodium, and the resulting magnetic field is measured. The mean…

Intermittent magnetic field excitation by a turbulent flow of liquid sodium

M. D. Nornberg, E. J. Spence, R. D. Kendrick +2

The magnetic field measured in the Madison Dynamo Experiment shows intermittent periods of growth when an axial magnetic field is applied. The geometry of the intermittent field is…

Numerical simulations of current generation and dynamo excitation in a mechanically-forced, turbulent flow

R. A. Bayliss, C. B. Forest, M. D. Nornberg +2

The role of turbulence in current generation and self-excitation of magnetic fields has been studied in the geometry of a mechanically driven, spherical dynamo experiment, using a…

Observation of a Turbulence-Induced Large Scale Magnetic Field

E. J. Spence, M. D. Nornberg, C. M. Jacobson +2

An axisymmetric magnetic field is applied to a spherical, turbulent flow of liquid sodium. An induced magnetic dipole moment is measured which cannot be generated by the interactio…

Measurements of the magnetic field induced by a turbulent flow of liquid metal

M. D. Nornberg, E. J. Spence, R. D. Kendrick +2

Initial results from the Madison Dynamo Experiment provide details of the inductive response of a turbulent flow of liquid sodium to an applied magnetic field. The magnetic field s…
