均匀各向同性磁流体力学Turbulence中的概率密度函数

Probability Density Functions in Homogeneous and Isotropic Magneto-Hydrodynamic Turbulence

J. Friedrich

摘要:

推导了磁流体动力学(MHD)湍流中多点概率密度函数的演化方程。本文讨论了MHD湍流中的矩族与Eschrasekhar导出的矩族的关系,并导出了一个联合特征泛函的泛函方程,它可以被认为是流体动力学湍流中的Hopf泛函的类比。在此基础上,我们发展了一种基于非封闭项联合高斯假设的单点磁场概率密度函数演化方程的封闭方法。它明确表明,这种封闭,连同假设的均匀性和各向同性,导致消失的非线性项。我们讨论了这一发现的影响,产生磁场,并给出了一个简短的展望轴对称理论,其中包括一个平均磁场。

英文摘要:

We derive a hierarchy of evolution equations for multi-point probability density functions in magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence. We discuss the relation to the moment hierarchy in MHD turbulence derived by Chandrasekhar and derive a functional equation for a joint characteristic functional which can be considered as the analogon to the Hopf functional in hydrodynamic turbulence. Furthermore, we develop a closure method for the evolution equation of the single-point magnetic field probability density function which is based on a joint Gaussian assumption for unclosed terms. It is explicitly shown that this closure, together with the assumptions of homogeneity and isotropy, leads to vanishing nonlinear terms. We discuss the implications of this finding for magnetic field generation and give a brief outlook on an axisymmetric theory which includes a mean magnetic field.
