Numerical simulations of the Princeton magneto-rotational instability experiment with conducting axial boundaries
Xing Wei, Hantao Ji, Jeremy Goodman +4
We investigate numerically the Princeton magneto-rotational instability (MRI) experiment and the effect of conducting axial boundaries or endcaps. MRI is identified and found to re…

Instabilities of Shercliff and Stewartson layers in spherical Couette flow
Xing Wei, Rainer Hollerbach
We explore numerically the flow induced in a spherical shell by differentially rotating the inner and outer spheres. The fluid is also taken to be electrically conducting (in the l…

Magnetic spherical Couette flow in linear combinations of axial and dipolar fields
Xing Wei, Rainer Hollerbach
We present axisymmetric numerical calculations of the fluid flow induced in a spherical shell with inner sphere rotating and outer sphere stationary. A magnetic field is also impos…
