Abstract

Subgrid-scale closures for magnetohydodynamic (MHD) turbulence are examined using the filtering technique. From the similarities between incompressible MHD turbulence and its hydrodynamic counterpart, as well as ideas from dynamo theory, a subgrid model is constructed from the large-eddy simulation (LES) of MHD turbulence. This model should find applicability in treating LES of the reversed-field pinch.
