Abstract
We use direct and stochastic numerical simulations of the magnetohydrodynamic equations to explore the influence of turbulence on the dynamo threshold. In the spirit of the Kraichnan-Kazantsev model, we model the turbulence by a noise, with given amplitude, injection scale, and correlation time. The addition of a stochastic noise to the mean velocity significantly alters the dynamo threshold and increases it for any noise at large scale. For small-scale noise, the result depends on its correlation time and on the magnetic Prandtl number.
