Abstract
Large eddy simulation (LES) of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulent Taylor-Couette (TC) flows is conducted to reveal the effect of the Hartmann number proportional to the axial magnetic field strength on the flow and electric current fields. The upper-lower walls are insulated and the inner-outer sidewalls are set to insulating walls (open condition) or perfectly conducting walls (short condition). As increasing the Hartmann number, turbulent fluctuations are suppressed, and the turbulent flow distributions approach the MHD laminar flow distributions. The orientations of turbulent vortices change from the azimuthal flow direction to the axial magnetic field direction even in the TC flow. The triplet high-speed streaky structures are uncovered near the inner wall.
