We carry out series of high-resolution solar dynamo calculations in spherical geometry to investigate generation mechanism of large-scale magnetic field. Solar observations indicate large-scale magnetic field in the solar interior in spite of the chaotic and turbulent fluid motion. Recent high-resolution calculations show that higher-resolution calculations generate weaker large-scale magnetic field, since small-scale turbulence tends to destruct the coherent large-scale magnetic field. In order to address this issue, we carry out a series of higher-resolution calculations. In our "middle"-resolution calculation, we find the same result as previous studies, i.e., when we increase the resolution, the large-scale magnetic field loses its energy. In our unprecedentedly high-resolution calculation, however, large-scale magnetic energy is recovered. In the calculation, we find an efficient small-scale dynamo which leads to strong Lorentz feedback in the small scale. The small-scale turbulent motion, which tends to destructs the large-scale magnetic field is suppressed. As a consequence, the large-scale magnetic field is maintained even with large Reynolds numbers.
