چکیده

The Soret–driven ferro thermoconvective instability of multi–component fluid in a porous medium heated from below and salted from above in the presence of dust particles subjected to a transverse uniform magnetic field has been analyzed using Darcy model for various values of permeability of the porous medium. The salinity effect has been contained in magnetization and density of the ferrofluid. A small thermal perturbation imparted on the basic state and a linear stability analysis is used for this model for which normal mode technique is applied. An exact solution is obtained for the case of two free boundaries and both stationary and oscillatory instabilities have been investigated. It is found that the system destabilizes only through stationary mode. The non-buoyancy magnetization parameter, the dust particle parameter and the permeability of the porous medium are found to destabilize the system. The results are depicted graphically.

A global nonlinear stability analysis is performed for a couple-stress fluid layer heated from below saturating a porous medium with temperature-pressure dependent viscosity for different conducting boundary systems. Here, the global nonlinear stability threshold for convection is exactly the same as the linear instability boundary. This optimal result is important because it shows that lineari...

Abstract: Penetrative convection due to purely internal heating in a horizontal ferrofluid-saturated porous layer is examined by performing linear stability analysis. Four different types of heat supply functions are considered. The Darcy model is used to incorporate the effect of the porous medium. Numerical solutions are obtained by using the Chebyshev pseudospectral method, and the results a...
