Tayler instability in liquid metal columns and liquid metal batteries


Abstract eng:
This paper investigates the Tayler instability in an incompressible, viscous and resistive liquid metal column and in a model of liquid metal battery. We perform detailed comparisons between numerical simulations and some simplified theoretical models, both in the linear and nonlinear regimes. We present the first direct numerical multiphase simulation of the Tayler instability in a model battery. (Key words: Liquid Metal Batteries, Energy storage, Multiphase flows, Magnetohydrodynamics).
