Optimizing helical disc dynamo

J. Priede, R. A. Avalos-Zúñiga

We present an optimized design of our recently realized helical disc dynamo. Like the original set-up, the optimized dynamo consists of a flat multi-arm spiral coil and a co-axiall…

Fully conservative hydraulic jumps and solibores in two-layer Boussinesq fluids

Jānis Priede

We consider a special type of hydraulic jumps (internal bores) which, in the vertically bounded system of two immiscible fluids with slightly different densities, conserve not only…

Realization of Bullard's disc dynamo

Raúl Alejandro Avalos-Zúñiga, Jānis Priede

We report experimental results from three successful runs of a Bullard-type homopolar disc dynamo. The set-up consisted of a copper disc with a radius of 30 cm and thickness of 3 c…

Comment on "Linear stability of a rotating channel flow subjected to a static magnetic field" [Phys. Fluids 34, 054116 (2022)]

Jānis Priede

Recently, Sengupta and Ghosh [Phys. Fluids 34, 054116, (2022)] published a linear stability analysis of a pressure-driven channel flow which is subject to rotation around a spanwis…

Fractality of metal pad instability threshold in rectangular cells

Gerasimos Politis, Jānis Priede

We analyse linear stability of interfacial waves in an idealised model of an aluminium reduction cell consisting of two stably stratified liquid layers which carry a vertical elect…

Lock-exchange problem for Boussinesq fluids revisited: exact shallow-water solution

Gerasimos Politis, Jānis Priede

An exact solution to the lock-exchange problem, which is a two-layer analogue of the classical dam-break problem, is obtained in the shallow-water (SW) approximation for two immisc…
