Experimental realization of dynamo action: present status and prospects

Andre Giesecke, Frank Stefani, Thomas Gundrum +3

In the last decades, the experimental study of dynamo action has made great progress. However, after the dynamo experiments in Karlsruhe and Riga, the von-Karman-Sodium (VKS) dynam…

Nonlinear dynamo in a short Taylor-Couette setup

C. Nore, J. -L. Guermond, R. Laguerre +2

It is numerically demonstrated by means of a magnetohydrodynamics code that a short Taylor-Couette setup with a body force can sustain dynamo action. The magnetic threshold is comp…

Nonlinear dynamo action in a precessing cylindrical container

C. Nore, J. Léorat, J. -L. Guermond +1

It is numerically demonstrated by means of a magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) code that precession can trigger the dynamo effect in a cylindrical container. This result adds credit to th…

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…

Impact of impellers on the axisymmetric magnetic mode in the VKS2 dynamo experiment

R. Laguerre, C. Nore, A. Ribeiro +3

In the VKS2 (von Kármán Sodium 2) successful dynamo experiment of September 2006, the magnetic field that was observed showed a strong axisymmetric component, implying that non axi…
