Small-scale magnetic buoyancy and magnetic pumping effects in a turbulent convection
We determine the nonlinear drift velocities of the mean magnetic field and nonlinear turbulent magnetic diffusion in a turbulent convection. We show that the nonlinear drift velocities are caused by the three kinds of the inhomogeneities, i.e., inhomogeneous turbulence; the nonuniform fluid density and the nonuniform turbulent heat flux. The inhomogeneous turbulence results in the well-known tu...
متن کاملMagnetic fluctuations and formation of large-scale inhomogeneous magnetic structures in a turbulent convection.
Magnetic fluctuations generated by a tangling of the mean magnetic field by velocity fluctuations are studied in a developed turbulent convection with large magnetic Reynolds numbers. We show that the energy of magnetic fluctuations depends on the magnetic Reynolds number only when the mean magnetic field is smaller than B(eq)/4Rm(1/4), where B(eq) is the equipartition mean magnetic field deter...
متن کاملTurbulent magnetic pumping in a Babcock-Leighton solar dynamo model
Context. The turbulent pumping effect corresponds to the transport of magnetic flux due to the presence of density and turbulence gradients in convectively unstable layers. In the induction equation it appears as an advective term and for this reason it is expected to be important in the solar and stellar dynamo processes. Aims. In this work, we have explored the effects of the turbulent pumpin...
متن کاملMagnetic flux concentrations from turbulent stratified convection
Context. The formation of magnetic flux concentrations within the solar convection zone leading to sunspot formation is unexplained. Aims. We study the self-organization of initially uniform sub-equipartition magnetic fields by highly stratified turbulent convection. Methods. We perform simulations of magnetoconvection in Cartesian domains representing the uppermost 8.5−24 Mm of the solar conve...
متن کاملA Convection Zone Dynamo including the Effects of Magnetic Buoyancy and Downward Flows
A magnetic flux tube may be considered both as a separate body and as a confined field. As a field, it is affected both by the cyclonic convection (α-effect) and differential rotation (Ω-effect). As a body, the tube experiences not only a buoyant force, but also a dynamic pressure due to downflows above the tube. When these two dynamic effects are incorporated into the αΩ dynamo equations, we o...
