Turbulent Convection in Stellar Interiors. I. Hydrodynamic Simulation
We describe the results of three-dimensional (3D) numerical simulations designed to study turbulent convection in the stellar interiors, and compare them to stellar mixing-length theory (MLT). Simulations in 2D are significantly different from 3D, both in terms of flow morphology and velocity amplitude. Convective mixing regions are better predicted using a dynamic boundary condition based on t...
متن کاملStellar Turbulent Convection: A Selfconsistent Model
We present a selfconsistent model for stellar turbulent convection which is similar in spirit to the CM model (Canuto & Mazzitelli 1991) since it accounts for the full spectrum of the turbulent eddies rather than only one eddy, as done in the mixing length theory (MLT). The model differs from the CM model in the treatment of the rate of energy input ns(k) from the source that generates the turb...
متن کاملStellar Kinematics of Young Clusters in Turbulent Hydrodynamic Simulations
The kinematics of newly-formed star clusters are interesting both as a probe of the state of the gas clouds from which the stars form, and because they influence planet formation, stellar mass segregation, cluster disruption, and other processes controlled in part by dynamical interactions in young clusters. However, to date there have been no attempts to use simulations of star cluster formati...
متن کاملEfficient Turbulent Compressible Convection in the Deep Stellar Atmosphere
This paper reports an application of gas-kinetic BGK scheme to the computation of turbulent compressible convection in the stellar interior. After incorporating the Subgrid Scale (SGS) turbulence model into the BGK scheme, we tested the effects of numerical parameters on the quantitative relationships among the thermodynamic variables, their fluctuations and correlations in a very deep, initial...
