摘要:

本文用数值方法研究了分层剪切盒中的湍流和发电机作用,其中磁通量为零。我们假设流体服从理想气体定律,并具有有限(常数)的热扩散率。我们在垂直边界处选择辐射边界条件,其中热通量与温度的四次方成比例。我们比较的结果与相应的情况下,其中固定的温度边界条件。最值得注意的结果是,形成一个完全对流的状态,其中密度几乎是恒定的高度的函数和热量被输送到上下边界的翻转运动是强大的,即使在辐射边界条件的情况下仍然存在。有趣的是,在对流制度,虽然扩散运输是可以忽略不计的平均层结不松弛到绝热状态。

英文摘要:

We present a numerical study of turbulence and dynamo action in stratified shearing boxes with zero magnetic flux. We assume that the fluid obeys the perfect gas law and has finite (constant) thermal diffusivity. We choose radiative boundary conditions at the vertical boundaries in which the heat flux is propor- tional to the fourth power of the temperature. We compare the results with the corresponding cases in which fixed temperature boundary conditions are applied. The most notable result is that the formation of a fully convective state in which the density is nearly constant as a function of height and the heat is transported to the upper and lower boundaries by overturning motions is robust and persists even in cases with radiative boundary conditions. Interestingly, in the convective regime, although the diffusive transport is negligible the mean stratification does not relax to an adiabatic state.
