Growth rate of the mean magnetic energy inside the convection zone (averaged over the kinematic phase of the dynamo) as a function of the grid spacing, Δx. For this analysis, we also simulated the kinematic phase of the dynamo on grids with 3843 and 6403 cells (Δx/Lref = 5.2 × 10−3, and Δx/Lref = 3.1 × 10−3, respectively). Error bars represent three standard deviations, computed over the time series. The expected theoretical scaling for SSD amplification (γ ∝ Re1/2 ∝ Δx−2/3) is represented by the black dashed line.
