Magneto convection in a layer of nanofluid with soret effect

Chand R., Rana G. C.

Acta Mechanica et Automatica

2015

Vol. 9, no. 2

63--69

Double diffusive convection in a horizontal layer of nanofluid in the presence of uniform vertical magnetic field with Soret effect is investigated for more realistic boundary conditions. The flux of volume fraction of nanoparticles is taken to be zero on the isothermal boundaries. The normal mode method is used to find linear stability analysis for the fluid layer. Oscillatory convection is ruled out because of the absence of the two opposing buoyancy forces. Graphs have been plotted to find the effects of various parameters on the stationary convection and it is found that magnetic field, solutal Rayleigh number and nanofluid Lewis number stabilizes fluid layer, while Soret effect, Lewis number, modified diffusivity ratio and nanoparticle Rayleigh number destabilize the fluid layer.

A Characterization of the Rivlin-Ericksen Viscoelastic Fluid in the Presence of a Magnetic Field and Rotation

Banyal A. S.

Vol. 60, iss. 4

355-355

A layer of Rivlin-Ericksen viscoelastic fluid heated from below is considered in the presence of an uniform vertical magnetic field and rotation. Following the linearized stability theory and normal mode analysis, this paper mathematically establishes the condition for characterizing oscillatory motion, which may be neutral or unstable, for rigid boundaries at the top and bottom of the fluid. It is established that all non-decaying slow motions starting from rest, in the configurations, are necessarily non-oscillatory in the regime TAF 2 + TA 4 + Qp2 2 1; where TA is the Taylor number, Q is the Chandrasekhar number, p2 is the magnetic Prandtl number, and F is the viscoelasticity parameter. This result is important, since it holds for all wave numbers for rigid boundaries of infinite horizontal extension at the top and bottom of the fluid, and the exact solutions of the problem investigated in closed form are not obtainable.
