Chaotic and oscillatory flows in the magnetized spherical Couette system.


Chaotic and oscillatory flows in the magnetized spherical Couette system.

Garcia Gonzalez, F.; Seilmayer, M.; Stefani, F.

Experiments on the magnetized spherical Couette system are presently being carried out at Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR). A liquid metal (GaInSn) is confined within two differentially rotating spheres and exposed to a magnetic field parallel to the axis of rotation. Bifurcation diagrams for modulated rotating waves and chaotic flows are obtained for investigating the nonlinear saturation of the radial jet, return flow, and shear layer instabilities, as found in previous studies.
