Quasi-static magnetohydrodynamic turbulence at high Reynolds number
We analyse the anisotropy of homogeneous turbulence in an electrically conducting fluid submitted to a uniform magnetic field, for low magnetic Reynolds number, in the quasi-static approximation. We interpret contradictory earlier predictions between linearized theory and simulations: in the linear limit, the kinetic energy of transverse velocity components, normal to the magnetic field, decays...
متن کاملDevelopment of anisotropy in incompressible magnetohydrodynamic turbulence.
We present a set of three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of incompressible decaying magnetohydrodynamic turbulence in which we investigate the influence of an external uniform magnetic field B0 . A parametric study in terms of B0 intensity is made where, in particular, we distinguish the shear-from the pseudo-Alfvén waves dynamics. The initial kinetic and magnetic energies are equal w...
متن کاملScaling and anisotropy in magnetohydrodynamic turbulence in a strong mean magnetic field.
We present an analysis of the anisotropic spectral energy distribution in incompressible magnetohydrodynamic turbulence permeated by a strong mean magnetic field. The turbulent flow is generated by high-resolution pseudospectral direct numerical simulations with large-scale isotropic forcing. Examining the radial energy distribution for various angles θ with respect to B0 reveals a specific str...
متن کاملAnisotropy of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence at low magnetic Reynolds number
Turbulent fluctuations in magnetohydrodynamic flows are known to become anisotropic under the action of a sufficiently strong magnetic field. We investigate this phenomenon in the case of low magnetic Reynolds number using direct numerical simulations and large eddy simulations of a forced flow in a periodic box. A series of simulations is performed with different strengths of the magnetic fiel...
متن کاملElectron magnetohydrodynamic turbulence in a high-beta plasma. I. Plasma parameters and instability conditions
The interaction of a dense discharge plasma with a weak external magnetic field has been studied experimentally. The electron pressure exceeds the field pressure and forms a magnetic hole in the plasma interior. The ions are unmagnetized, while the electrons are in a transition regime from none to full magnetization. The electron confinement changes from Boltzmann equilibrium to magnetic confin...
