ABSTRACT Turbulent convection is thought to act as an effective viscosity in damping equilibrium tidal flows, driving spin and orbital evolution in close convective binary systems. Compared to mixing-length predictions, this viscosity ought to be reduced when the tidal frequency |ωt| exceeds the turnover frequency ωcv of the dominant convective eddies, but the efficiency of this reduction has been disputed. We re-examine this long-standing controversy using direct numerical simulations of an idealized global model. We simulate thermal convection in a full sphere, and externally forced by the equilibrium tidal flow, to measure the effective viscosity νE acting on the tidal flow when |ωt|/ωcv ≳ 1. We demonstrate that the frequency reduction of νE is correlated with the frequency spectrum of the (unperturbed) convection. For intermediate frequencies below those in the turbulent cascade (|ωt|/ωcv ∼ 1−5), the frequency spectrum displays an anomalous 1/ωα power law that is responsible for the frequency reduction νE∝1/|ωt|α, where α < 1 depends on the model parameters. We then get |νE| ∝ 1/|ωt|δ with δ > 1 for higher frequencies, and δ = 2 is obtained for a Kolmogorov turbulent cascade. A generic |νE| ∝ 1/|ωt|2 suppression is next found for higher frequencies within the dissipation range of the convection (but with negative values). Our results indicate that a better knowledge of the frequency spectrum of convection is necessary to accurately predict the efficiency of tidal dissipation in stars and planets resulting from this mechanism.
