Theory of homogeneous dynamos in a rotating liquid sphere.

چکیده
A spherical harmonic analysis is made of the hydrodynamic equation governing the flow of an incompressible liquid in a rotating sphere in the presence of the magnetic Lorentz force. Nonlinear partial differential equations are derived for the functions S(n)(r,t) and T(n)(r,t) entering the spherical harmonic representation of the velocity field.

This work is a study of the Earths free oscillations considering a merge of solid and liquid model. At the turn of 19th century Geophysicists presented the theory of the free oscillations for a self-gravitating, isotropic and compressible sphere. Assuming a steel structure for an Earth size sphere, they predicted a period of oscillation of about 1 hour. About 50 years later, the free oscillat...
متن کاملSize-dependent thermoelastic analysis of rotating nanodisks of variable thickness
This paper contains a strain gradient theory to capture size effects in rotating nanodisks of variable thickness under thermal and mechanical loading. Material properties of nanodisks have been taken homogeneous material. The strain gradient theory and the Hamilton’s principle are employed to derive the governing equations. Due to complexity of the governing differential equation and boundary c...
متن کاملTidally driven dynamos in a rotating sphere
Large-scale planetary or stellar magnetic fields generated by a dynamo effect are mostly attributed to flows forced by buoyancy forces in electrically conducting fluid layers. However, these large-scale fields may also be controlled by tides, as previously suggested for the star τ -boo, Mars or the Early Moon. By simulating a small local patch of a rotating fluid, Barker & Lithwick (2014) have ...
متن کاملTHEORY, EXPERIMENT AND PRACTICE OF SLAG ATTACK OF REFRACTORIES
Penetration and dissolution mechanisms are reviewed for predominantly single-phase oxide, two phase oxide and oxide-carbon composite refractories by liquid silicate slags. Theoretical models of these processes, as well as static (sessile drop, dipping and crucible) and dynamic (rotating finger and rotary slag) experimental tests, along with their practical limitations are considered. Direct (co...
متن کاملStress Analysis of Magneto Thermoelastic and Induction Magnetic Filed in FGM Hallow Sphere
In this paper a closed form solution for one-dimensional magnetothermoelastic problem in a functionally graded material (FGM) hollow sphere placed in a uniform magnetic field and temperature field subjected to an internal pressure is obtained using the theory of magnetothermoelasticity. Hyper-geometric functions are employed to solve the governing equation. The material properties through the g...
