The role of magnetic boundaries in kinematic and self-consistent magnetohydrodynamic simulations of precession-driven dynamo action in a closed cylinder

André Giesecke, Mike Wilbert, Ján Šimkanin +2

We numerically examine dynamo action generated by a flow of an electrically conducting fluid in a precessing cylindrical cavity. We compare a simplified kinematic approach based on…

Towards a precession driven dynamo experiment

F. Stefani, T. Albrecht, G. Gerbeth +5

The most ambitious project within the DREsden Sodium facility for DYNamo and thermohydraulic studies (DRESDYN) at Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) is the set-up of a pre…

Influence of high permeability disks in an axisymmetric model of the Cadarache dynamo experiment

A. Giesecke, C. Nore, F. Stefani +5

Numerical simulations of the kinematic induction equation are performed on a model configuration of the Cadarache von-Kármán-Sodium dynamo experiment. The effect of a localized axi…

Electromagnetic induction in non-uniform domains

A. Giesecke, C. Nore, F. Luddens +4

Kinematic simulations of the induction equation are carried out for different setups suitable for the von-Kármán-Sodium (VKS) dynamo experiment. Material properties of the flow dri…

Generation of axisymmetric modes in cylindrical kinematic mean-field dynamos of VKS type

A. Giesecke, C. Nore, F. Plunian +6

In an attempt to understand why the dominating magnetic field observed in the von-Kármán-Sodium (VKS) dynamo experiment is axisymmetric, we investigate in the present paper the abi…

Ambivalent effects of added layers on steady kinematic dynamos in cylindrical geometry: application to the VKS experiment

F. Stefani, M. Xu, G. Gerbeth +4

The intention of the ''von Karman sodium'' (VKS) experiment is to study the hydromagnetic dynamo effect in a highly turbulent and unconstrained flow. Much effort has been devoted t…
