The Simulation
• Advect minimally structured magnetic field -- horizontal, uniform, untwisted – by inflows at bottom
• Complement simulations of coherent, twisted flux tube emergences
• Objectives:o Investigate formation and structure of sunspots without
ad hoc boundary conditionso Provide synthetic data for validating local helioseismology
and vector magnetograph inversion procedureso Investigate nature of supergranulation

Flux Emergence20 kG @ 20 Mm depth @ 30o to x-axis, 15 – 32 hrs
Average fluid rise time = 32 hrs (interval between frames =1 min) 96 km horizontal resolution -> 48 km
