In this paper, we study wave transmission in a rotating fluid with multiple alternating convectively stable and unstable layers. We have discussed wave transmissions in two different circumstances: cases where the wave is propagative in each layer and cases where wave tunneling occurs. We find that efficient wave transmission can be achieved by `resonant propagation or `resonant tunneling, even when stable layers are strongly stratified, and we call this phenomenon `enhanced wave transmission. Enhanced wave transmission only occurs when the total number of layers is odd (embedding stable layers are alternatingly embedded within clamping convective layers, or vise versa). For wave propagation, the occurrence of enhanced wave transmission requires that clamping layers have similar properties, the thickness of each clamping layer is close to a multiple of the half wavelength of the corresponding propagative wave, and the total thickness of embedded layers is close to a multiple of the half wavelength of the corresponding propagating wave (resonant propagation). For wave tunneling, we have considered two cases: tunneling of gravity waves and tunneling of inertial waves. In both cases, efficient tunneling requires that clamping layers have similar properties, the thickness of each embedded layer is much smaller than the corresponding e-folding decay distance, and the thickness of each clamping layer is close to a multiple-and-a-half of half wavelength (resonant tunneling).

In this paper, we study the inertial and gravity wave transmissions near the radiative-convective boundaries in the {it f}-plane. Two configurations have been considered: waves propagate from the convective layer to the radiative stratified stable la
yer, or In this paper, we study inertial and gravity wave transmissions near radiative-convective boundaries on the {it f}-plane. Two configurations have been considered: waves propagate from the convective layer to the radiative stratified stable layer, or the other way around. It has been found that waves prefer to survive at low latitudes when the stable layer is strongly stratified ($N^2/(2Omega)^2>1$). When the stable layer is weakly stratified ($N^2/(2Omega)^2<1$), however, waves can survive at any latitude if the meridional wavenumber is large. Then we have discussed transmission ratios for two buoyancy frequency structures: the uniform stratification, and the continuously varying stratification. For the uniform stratification, we have found that the transmission is efficient when the rotation is rapid, or when the wave is near the critical colatitude. For the continuously varying stratification, we have discussed the transmission ratio when the square of buoyancy frequency is an algebraic function $N^2propto z^{ u} ( u >0)$. We have found that the transmission can be efficient when the rotation is rapid, or when the wave is near the critical colatitude, or when the thickness of the stratification layer is far greater than the horizontal wave length. The transmission ratio does not depend on the configurations (radiative layer sits above convective layer, or vice versa; wave propagates outward or inward), but only on characteristics of the wave (frequency and wavenumber) and the fluid (degree of stratification).
Stellar radiative zones are typically assumed to be motionless in standard models of stellar structure but there is sound theoretical and observational evidence that this cannot be the case. We investigate by direct numerical simulations a three-dime
nsional and time-dependent model of stellar radiation zones consisting of an electrically-conductive and stably-stratified anelastic fluid confined to a rotating spherical shell and driven by a baroclinic torque. As the baroclinic driving is gradually increased a sequence of transitions from an axisymmetric and equatorially-symmetric time-independent flow to flows with a strong poloidal component and lesser symmetry are found. It is shown that all flow regimes characterised with significant non-axisymmetric components are capable of generating self-sustained magnetic field. As the value of the Prandtl number is decreased and the value of the Ekman number is decreased flows become strongly time-dependent with progressively complex spatial structure and dynamos can be generated at lower values of the magnetic Prandtl number.
We study the convective and absolute forms of azimuthal magnetorotational instability (AMRI) in a Taylor-Couette (TC) flow with an imposed azimuthal magnetic field. We show that the domain of the convective AMRI is wider than that of the absolute AMR
I. Actually, it is the absolute instability which is the most relevant and important for magnetic TC flow experiments. The absolute AMRI, unlike the convective one, stays in the device, displaying a sustained growth that can be experimentally detected. We also study the global AMRI in a TC flow of finite height using DNS and find that its emerging butterfly-type structure -- a spatio-temporal variation in the form of upward and downward traveling waves -- is in a very good agreement with the linear stability analysis, which indicates the presence of two dominant absolute AMRI modes in the flow giving rise to this global butterfly pattern.
We present a numerical study of quasistatic magnetoconvection in a cubic Rayleigh-Benard (RB) convection cell subjected to a vertical external magnetic field. For moderate values of the Hartmann number Ha, we find an enhancement of heat transport. Fu
rthermore, a maximum heat transport enhancement is observed at certain optimal $Ha_{opt}$. The enhanced heat transport may be understood as a result of the increased coherency of the thermal plumes, which are elementary heat carriers of the system. To our knowledge this is the first time that a heat transfer enhancement by the stabilising Lorentz force in quasistatic magnetoconvection has been observed. We further found that the optimal enhancement may be understood in terms of the crossing between the thermal and the momentum boundary layers (BL) and the fact that temperature fluctuations are maximum near the position where the BLs cross. These findings demonstrate that the heat transport enhancement phenomenon in the quasistatic magnetoconvection system belongs to the same universality class of stabilising$-$destabilising ($S$-$D$) turbulent flows as the systems of confined Rayleigh-Benard (CRB), rotating Rayleigh-Benard (RRB) and double-diffusive convection (DDC). This is further supported by the findings that the heat transport, boundary layer ratio and the temperature fluctuations in magnetoconvection at the boundary layer crossing point are similar to the other three cases.
We study generation of magnetic fields, involving large spatial scales, by convective plan-forms in a horizontal layer. Magnetic modes and their growth rates are expanded in power series in the scale ratio, and the magnetic eddy diffusivity (MED) ten
sor is derived for flows, symmetric about the vertical axis in a layer. For convective rolls magnetic eddy correction is demonstrated to be always positive. For rectangular cell patterns, the region in the parameter space of negative MED coincides with that of small-scale magnetic field generation. No instances of negative MED in hexagonal cells are found. A family of plan-forms with a smaller symmetry group than that of rectangular cell patterns has been found numerically, where MED is negative for molecular magnetic diffusivity over the threshold for the onset of small-scale magnetic field generation.
