Viscous dissipation by tidally forced inertial modes in a rotating spherical shell
We investigate the properties of forced inertial modes of a rotating fluid inside a spherical shell. Our forcing is tidal like, but its main property is that it is on the large scales. By numerically solving the linear equations of this problem, including viscosity, we first confirm some analytical results obtained on a two-dimensional model by Ogilvie (2005); some additional properties of this...
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 کاملMHD Free and Forced Convective Flow in a Rotating Channel
A steady MHD free and forced convective viscous incompressible electrically conducting flow in a rotating channel under constant pressure gradient has been studied. An exact solution of the governing equations has been obtained in closed form. The numerical results for the velocity components, the induced magnetic field components and the temperature distribution are being presented graphically...
متن کاملInstability Associated Baroclinic Critical Layers in Rotating Stratified Shear Flow
The notion of over-reflection has been used to rationalize the linear instability of shear flows that are directed and sheared in a horizontal plane but stratified and subject to rotation in the vertical. In the linear stability analysis of these types of flows, two types of critical levels may appear that translate to singular points in the corresponding differential eigenvalue problem. The fi...
متن کاملTurbulent flow regimes behind a coastal cape in a stratified and rotating environment
A numerical study aimed at investigating the roles of both the stratification and topographic slope in generation of turbulent coherent structures in the lee of capes is presented. We consider a steady barotropic current impinging on an obstacle in a rotating and linearly stratified environment. The obstacle is a triangular prism and represents an idealized headland extending from the coast. Nu...
