Multi-fluid simulations of Ganymede’s magnetosphere
[1] Comparative studies of 3D multi-fluid simulations with Galileo magnetometer data are used to develop a quantitative model of the currents and fields within Ganymede’s magnetosphere as well as its bulk plasma environment. The model includes contributions from Jupiter’s magnetosphere and the flux of different ion species originating from Ganymede’s ionosphere. Comparisons between the magnetom...
متن کاملThree-dimensional multi-fluid simulations of Pluto’s magnetosphere: A comparison to 3D hybrid simulations
[1] Results from 3D multi-fluid simulations of the solar wind interaction with Pluto are compared to 3D hybrid simulations of the same interaction. The results from the multi-fluid simulations are similar to the hybrid results in both the overall size of the magnetosphere as well as predicting pick-up of ionospheric ions by the solar wind. The results from the multi-fluid simulations also show ...
متن کاملThree-dimensional MHD simulations of Ganymede’s magnetosphere
[1] Ganymede is unique among planetary moons because it has its own magnetic field strong enough to form a magnetosphere within Jupiter’s magnetospheric environment. Here we report on our three-dimensional global magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations that model the interaction between Ganymede’s magnetosphere and the corotating Jovian plasma. We use the measured field and particle properties to...
متن کاملInterface Reconstruction in Multi-fluid, Multi-phase Flow Simulations
An advanced Volume-of-Fluid or VOF procedure for locally conservative reconstruction of multi-material interfaces based on volume fraction information in cells of an unstructured mesh is presented in this paper. The procedure employs improved neighbor definitions and topological consistency checks of the interface for computing a more accurate interface approximation. Comparison with previously...
متن کاملMulti-scale high-performance fluid flow: Simulations through porous media
In petroleum production and engineering, the subsurface formation that surrounds the well screen gets, in many cases, deteriorated with time in relation to its hydraulic conductivity. As a consequence, well production declines with time and this limits to a large extent its efficiency. Since well installation is a major production operation that usually requires a large capital, it is always im...
