Experimental study of convection in the compressible regime
Rémi Menaut, Yoann Corre, Ludovic Huguet +6
An experiment of thermal convection with significant compressible effects is presented. The high-gravity environment of a centrifuge and the choice of xenon gas enable us to observ…
Added mass: a complex face of tidal conversion
C. Brouzet, E. V. Ermanyuk, M. Moulin +2
This paper revisits the problem of tidal conversion at a ridge in a uniformly stratified fluid of limited depth using measurements of complex-valued added mass. When the height of…
Generation of magnetic field by dynamo action in a turbulent flow of liquid sodium
R. Monchaux, M. Berhanu, M. Bourgoin +13
We report the observation of dynamo action in the VKS experiment, i.e., the generation of magnetic field by a strongly turbulent swirling flow of liquid sodium. Both mean and fluct…
