英文摘要: | We present an experimental study on the shear instability driven by tidal forcing in a model planetary liquid core. The experimental setup consists of a water-filled deformable sphere rotating around its axis and subjected to an elliptical forcing. At resonant forcing frequencies, the nonlinear self-interaction of the excited inertial mode drives an intense and localized axisymmetric jet. The jet becomes unstable at low Ekman number because of a shear instability. Using particle image velocimetry measurements, we derive a semiempirical scaling law that captures the instability threshold of the shear instability. This mechanism is fully relevant to planetary systems, where it constitutes a new route to generate turbulence in their liquid cores. © 2014. American Geophysical Union. |
