二维磁流体动力学turbulence中逆级联区的统计特性

Statistics of the inverse-cascade regime in two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic turbulence

Debarghya Banerjee, Rahul Pandit

摘要:

我们提出了一个详细的统计稳定,均匀,各向同性,二维磁流体动力学(2D MHD)湍流的直接数值模拟。我们的研究集中在磁矢势的逆级联。我们研究了这种湍流的统计特性对耗散和摩擦系数的依赖性。我们通过计算流体和磁谱,速度、磁场、涡度、电流、流函数和磁矢量势场及其增量的概率分布函数(PDF),显著地扩展了早期的工作。我们量化的偏差,这些PDF从高斯的计算他们的平坦性和超平坦性。我们还提出了Okubo-Weiss参数的PDF,它区分涡动和伸展流区域,以及它的磁性模拟。我们发现,超平坦的PDF的增量的流函数和磁矢量势表现出显着的尺度依赖性,我们研究这对多尺度的结构函数的含义。我们将我们的结果与早期的研究进行了比较。

英文摘要:

We present a detailed direct numerical simulation of statistically steady, homogeneous, isotropic, two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (2D MHD) turbulence. Our study concentrates on the inverse cascade of the magnetic vector potential. We examine the dependence of the statistical properties of such turbulence on dissipation and friction coefficients. We extend earlier work sig- nificantly by calculating fluid and magnetic spectra, probability distribution functions (PDFs) of the velocity, magnetic, vorticity, current, stream-function, and magnetic-vector-potential fields and their increments. We quantify the deviations of these PDFs from Gaussian ones by computing their flatnesses and hyperflatnesses. We also present PDFs of the Okubo-Weiss parameter, which distin- guishes between vortical and extensional flow regions, and its magnetic analog. We show that the hyperflatnesses of PDFs of the increments of the stream-function and the magnetic vector potential exhibit significant scale dependence and we examine the implication of this for the multiscaling of structure functions. We compare our results with those of earlier studies.
