小Reynolds numbers剪切发电机问题的输运系数

Transport coefficients for the shear dynamo problem at small Reynolds numbers

Nishant K. Singh, S. Sridhar

摘要:

我们建立在Sridhar和Singh(JFM,664,265,2010)中开发的公式的基础上,并针对小的磁和流体雷诺数,但对于任意值的剪切参数,提出了\emph{shear dynamo problem}的理论。专门的情况下,是缓慢变化的平均磁场,在时间上,明确的表达式的输运系数,$α_{il}$和$η_{iml}$,推导。证明了当速度场为非螺旋时,输运系数$α_{il}$为零。然后,我们考虑强迫,随机动力学的不可压缩的速度场在低雷诺数。一个精确的,明确的解决方案的速度场的推导,和速度谱张量计算的伽利略不变强迫统计。我们考虑了非螺旋、各向同性和时间上的δ相关的强迫统计量,并专门研究了平均场仅是空间坐标$X_3$和时间$τ\,$的函数的情况;这种简化对于与Brandenburg,R{ä}dler,Rheinhardt & Käpylä(ApJ,676,740,2008)的数值实验进行比较是必要的。明确的表达式推导出所有四个组成部分的磁扩散系数张量,$η_{ij}(τ)\,$。这些被用来证明,剪切电流效应不能负责发电机行动在小$\re$和$\rem$,但剪切参数的所有值。

英文摘要:

We build on the formulation developed in Sridhar & Singh (JFM, 664, 265, 2010), and present a theory of the \emph{shear dynamo problem} for small magnetic and fluid Reynolds numbers, but for arbitrary values of the shear parameter. Specializing to the case of a mean magnetic field that is slowly varying in time, explicit expressions for the transport coefficients, $α_{il}$ and $η_{iml}$, are derived. We prove that, when the velocity field is non helical, the transport coefficient $α_{il}$ vanishes. We then consider forced, stochastic dynamics for the incompressible velocity field at low Reynolds number. An exact, explicit solution for the velocity field is derived, and the velocity spectrum tensor is calculated in terms of the Galilean--invariant forcing statistics. We consider forcing statistics that is non helical, isotropic and delta-correlated-in-time, and specialize to the case when the mean-field is a function only of the spatial coordinate $X_3$ and time $τ\,$; this reduction is necessary for comparison with the numerical experiments of Brandenburg, R{ä}dler, Rheinhardt & Käpylä (ApJ, 676, 740, 2008). Explicit expressions are derived for all four components of the magnetic diffusivity tensor, $η_{ij}(τ)\,$. These are used to prove that the shear-current effect cannot be responsible for dynamo action at small $\re$ and $\rem$, but for all values of the shear parameter.
