An Integral Equation Approach to Kinematic Dynamo Models
The paper deals with dynamomodels in which the induction effects act within a bounded region surrounded by an electrically conducting medium at rest. Instead of the induction equation, an equivalent integral equation is considered, which again poses an eigenvalue problem. The eigenfunctions and eigenvalues represent the magnetic field modes and corresponding dynamo numbers. In the simplest case...
متن کاملIntegral Equations for Kinematic Dynamo Models
2 S u m m a r y : A new technique for the treatment of the kinematic dynamo problem is presented. The method is applicable when the dynamo is surrounded by a medium of nite conductivity and is based on a reformulation of the induction equation and boundary conditions at innnity into an integral equation. We show that the integral operator ^ I involved here is compact in the case of homogeneous ...
متن کاملThe integral equation approach to kinematic dynamo theory and its application to dynamo experiments in cylindrical geometry
The conventional magnetic induction equation that governs hydromagnetic dynamo action is transformed into an equivalent integral equation system. An advantage of this approach is that the computational domain is restricted to the region occupied by the electrically conducting fluid and to its boundary. This integral equation approach is first employed to simulate kinematic dynamos excited by Be...
متن کاملA Numerical Method for Solving Stochastic Volterra-Fredholm Integral Equation
In this paper, we propose a numerical method based on the generalized hat functions (GHFs) and improved hat functions (IHFs) to find numerical solutions for stochastic Volterra-Fredholm integral equation. To do so, all known and unknown functions are expanded in terms of basic functions and replaced in the original equation. The operational matrices of both basic functions are calculated and em...
متن کاملShear dynamo problem: Quasilinear kinematic theory.
Large-scale dynamo action due to turbulence in the presence of a linear shear flow is studied. Our treatment is quasilinear and kinematic but is nonperturbative in the shear strength. We derive the integrodifferential equation for the evolution of the mean magnetic field by systematic use of the shearing coordinate transformation and the Galilean invariance of the linear shear flow. For nonheli...
