Numerical simulations of rotating axisymmetric sunspots
A numerical model of axisymmetric convection in the presence of a vertical magnetic flux bundle and rotation about the axis is presented. The model contains a compressible plasma described by the nonlinear MHD equations, with density and temperature gradients simulating the upper layer of the sun’s convection zone. The solutions exhibit a central magnetic flux tube in a cylindrical numerical do...
متن کاملLarge numerical simulations of turbulent rotating flows
Scientific context Rotation, as measured by the Rossby number (the ratio of the rotation period to the eddy turn over time) is present in astroand geophysics. For example, the high Reynolds number large scales of atmospheric and oceanic flows are affected by the rotation of the Earth; the Rossby number Ro = U0/[L0Ω] for mid-latitude atmospheric synoptic scales is Ro ≈ 0.1 whereas in the solar c...
متن کاملMHD simulations of flows around rotating and non-rotating axisymmetric magnetic flux concentrations
We present results on modeling magnetic flux tubes in an unstably stratified medium and the flows around them using 2D axisymmetric magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) simulations. The study is motivated by the formation of magnetic field concentrations at the solar surface in sunspots and magnetic pores and the large-scale flow patterns associated with them. The simulations provide consistent, self-mai...
متن کاملSimulations of waves in sunspots
Magnetic field modifies the properties of waves in a complex way. Significant advances has been made recently in our understanding of the physics of waves in solar active regions with the help of analytical theories, numerical simulations, as well as hi-resolution observations. In this contribution we review the current ideas in the field, with the emphasis on theoretical models of waves in sun...
متن کاملNumerical Simulations of Rotating Accretion Flows near a Black Hole
We present time-dependent solutions of thin, supersonic accretion flows near a black hole and compare them with analytical solutions. Such flows of inviscid, adiabatic gas are characterized by the specific angular momentum and the specific energy. We confirm that for a wide range of above parameters a stable standing shock wave with a vortex inside it forms close to the black hole. Apart from s...
