旋转球壳中湍流对流和发电机的一些异常性质

Some Unusual Properties of Turbulent Convection and Dynamos in Rotating Spherical Shells

F. H. Busse, R. D. Simitev

摘要:

旋转球壳中对流流体的动力学在单位阶普朗特数下由微分旋转和滚动状对流涡之间的相互作用所控制。虽然差动旋转是由涡的雷诺应力驱动的,但其剪切作用抑制了对流,并导致局部对流和湍流弛豫振荡等现象。在发电机动作的情况下,系统的响应被丰富。洛伦兹力可以完全或部分地制动地转差旋,并产生两种截然不同的发电机状态。当磁普朗特数为1时,湍流发电机存在双稳性。虽然平均磁能和动能之间的比率相差5倍或更多的两个发电机状态,平均对流热传输几乎相同。它们比没有磁场时大得多。

英文摘要:

The dynamics of convecting fluids in rotating spherical shells is governed at Prandtl numbers of the order unity by the interaction between differential rotation and roll-like convection eddies. While the differential rotation is driven by the Reynolds stresses of the eddies, its shearing action inhibits convection and causes phenomena such as localized convection and turbulent relaxation oscillations. The response of the system is enriched in the case of dynamo action. Lorentz forces may brake either entirely or partially the geostrophic differential rotation and give rise to two rather different dynamo states. Bistability of turbulent dynamos exists for magnetic Prandtl numbers of the order unity. While the ratios between mean magnetic and kinetic energies differ by a factor of 5 or more for the two dynamo states, the mean convective heat transports are nearly the same. They are much larger than in the absence of a magnetic field.
