Weakly non-Boussinesq convection in a gaseous spherical shell
Lydia Korre, Nicholas Brummell, Pascale Garaud
We examine the dynamics associated with weakly compressible convection in a spherical shell by running 3D direct numerical simulations using the Boussinesq formalism [1]. Motivated…
Effect of metallic walls on dynamos generated by laminar boundary-driven flow in a spherical domain
Celine Guervilly, Toby S. Wood, Nicholas H. Brummell
We present a numerical study of dynamo action in a conducting fluid encased in a metallic spherical shell. Motions in the fluid are driven by differential rotation of the outer met…
Self-consistent simulations of a von Kármán type dynamo in a spherical domain with metallic walls
Céline Guervilly, Nicholas H. Brummell
We have performed numerical simulations of boundary-driven dynamos using a three-dimensional non-linear magnetohydrodynamical model in a spherical shell geometry. A conducting flui…
Dynamics of fingering convection II: The formation of thermohaline staircases
S. Stellmach, A. Traxler, P. Garaud +2
Regions of the ocean's thermocline unstable to salt fingering are often observed to host thermohaline staircases, stacks of deep well-mixed convective layers separated by thin stab…
Dynamics of fingering convection I: Small-scale fluxes and large-scale instabilities
A. Traxler, S. Stellmach, P. Garaud +2
Double-diffusive instabilities are often invoked to explain enhanced transport in stably-stratified fluids. The most-studied natural manifestation of this process, fingering convec…
