Intrinsic rotation of toroidally confined magnetohydrodynamics
Jorge Morales, Wouter Bos, Kai Schneider +1
The spatiotemporal self-organization of viscoresistive magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) in a toroidal geometry is studied. Curl-free toroidal magnetic and electric fields are imposed. It…
Low magnetic Prandtl number dynamos with helical forcing
P. D. Mininni, D. C. Montgomery
We present direct numerical simulations of dynamo action in a forced Roberts flow. The behavior of the dynamo is followed as the mechanical Reynolds number is increased, starting f…
Numerical solutions of the three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic alpha-model
P. D. Mininni, D. C. Montgomery, A. Pouquet
We present direct numerical simulations and alpha-model simulations of four familiar three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence effects: selective decay, dynamic alignm…
Nonlinear behavior of a non-helical dynamo
P. D. Mininni, Y. Ponty, D. C. Montgomery +3
A three-dimensional numerical computation of magnetohydrodynamic dynamo behavior is described. The dynamo is mechanically forced with a driving term of the Taylor-Green type. The m…
Numerical study of dynamo action at low magnetic Prandtl numbers
Y. Ponty, P. D. Mininni, D. C. Montgomery +3
We present a three--pronged numerical approach to the dynamo problem at low magnetic Prandtl numbers . The difficulty of resolving a large range of scales is circumvented by c…
Alternative statistical-mechanical descriptions of decaying two-dimensional turbulence in terms of "patches" and "points"
Z. Yin, D. C. Montgomery, H. J. H. Clercx
Numerical and analytical studies of decaying, two-dimensional (2D) Navier-Stokes (NS) turbulence at high Reynolds numbers are reported. The effort is to determine computable distin…
