Dynamo action
driven by three dimensional convective flow with an Ekman layer

The linear and nonlinear dynamo actions in a box have been studied by
using a fully three dimensional code.
Two different fluid motions are considered: convective flow with and
without spiralling shear flow near the bottom boundary.
Results from kinematic and dynamic dynamos are compared.
