Abstract
In this talk, I bill briefly recall the main features of the dynamo magnetic field observed in the von-Kàrmàn Sodium dynamo experiment (where a turbulent sodium flow is created by the counter-rotation of two coaxial impellers in a cylinder). I will then focus on the influence of boundary conditions in dynamo generation and dynamics of the magnetic field.
