Fig. 1: Saturation of the no-cosines flow
Total energies as a function of time for an experiment with Rem = 100 and Re = 2. Here the solid curve is magnetic energy Emag, the dotted curve kinetic energy Ekin and the dotted-dashed curve the total thermal energy Eth. The dashed horizontal line indicates unity energy.
