요약Numerical simulations of thermal convection with either rapid rotation or a strong imposed magnetic field are carried out. The scaling of various quantities such as flow speeds, heat transport, and length scales are analyzed for these systems, with a focus on the asymptotic nature of these quantities. The geometry and boundary conditions are varied, with each chapter focusing on a particular configuration.Chapter two considers a non-conducting fluid contained between rotating spherical shells with no magnetic field. Both the Ekman number and the Rayleigh number are varied in order to study the influence of these parameters. It is found that the asymptotic scaling of the small-scale flow speeds, forces, and some length scales roughly follow the same asymptotic scaling found in quasi-geostrophic plane layer convection. However, due to the use of stress-free boundary conditions, a large-scale zonal flow develops. This large-scale zonal flow follows a different asymptotic dependence than the small-scale flow, and a balance between Reynolds stresses and viscous stresses can be used to determine an asymptotic scaling of the large-scale zonal flow. This suggests that the saturation of the zonal flow occurs when the zonal flow becomes large enough such that the viscous stresses are as large as the Reynolds stresses.Chapter three considers plane layer convection with an imposed magnetic field. The imposed magnetic field is misaligned with the direction of gravity, forming an angle of 135◦ . The strength of the magnetic field and Rayleigh number are varied, which allows for a similar analysis as conducted in chapter two. Heat transport and convective flow speeds are found to be similar to the case of a vertical magnetic field, though the tilt of the magnetic field ends up introducing a large-scale horizontal flow. This large-scale flow is again found to result from a balance between the Reynolds stresses and viscous stresses, analogous to the rotating case in chapter two. An empirical asymptotic scaling with respect to magnetic field strength for the small-scale flow speeds is found, which can be used with the Reynolds stress relationship to predict the scaling of the large-scale flow speeds. The balance between the Reynolds stresses and viscous stresses also predicts that the zonal flow speeds should increase as the aspect ratio of the simulation domain is changed, which is confirmed for one case. Horizontally averaged flows and magnetic fields are also investigated, though these are found to be asymptotically small, and so appear to be largely irrelevant when the imposed magnetic field is strong.Chapter four compares a set of rotating spherical shell dynamo cases with an approximate MAC (magnetic-Archimedes-Coriolis) force balance to otherwise identical non-magnetic cases. Since the magnetic field is self-generated and not imposed, it is the rotation rate of the system which is important to the asymptotics, and the Ekman number dependence of the dynamo and non-magnetic cases is compared. It is found that the flow speeds, the viscous dissipation length scale, the viscous force, and the advective term of the momentum equation follow roughly the same Ekman number dependence for the dynamo and non-magnetic cases. However, owing to the strong influence of the Lorentz force in the dynamo cases, the buoyancy force for the dynamo cases is found to be asymptotically stronger than the buoyancy force in the non-magnetic cases, with the buoyancy force for the dynamo cases entering at the same asymptotic order as the Coriolis force. The reason for this change in the asymptotic size of the buoyancy force is at least partly explained by changes in the dissipation equation: the non-magnetic cases require that all dissipation is viscous, which, under a few assumptions, limits the buoyancy force to be asymptotically the same order as the viscous force. However, the dynamo cases also have magnetic dissipation, so for strong magnetic field strength, the magnetic dissipation can allow the buoyancy force to be asymptotically larger than the viscous force.
