The Turbulent
Dynamo
¥This type of model should not be confused with a global dynamo model ---
in our case, there is no need for
an interface layer, rotation (differential or otherwise), or prescribed flows.
¥Our work differs from that of Cattaneo (1999) in that our domain is highly
stratified --- but like his
Boussinesq calculation, we find that our small seed field grows exponentially until
it saturates at ~7% of the total kinetic energy of the computational domain. Compute time: 5.5 CPU months (2.4 GHz Xeon)
