Solute Gradient

Thermosolutal instability in a compressible Walters B’ viscoelastic fluid with suspended particles through a porous medium is considered. Following the linearized stability theory and normal mode analysis, the dispersion relation is obtained. For stationary convection, the Walters B’ viscoelastic fluid behaves like a Newtonian fluid and it is found that suspended particles and medium permeability have a destabilizing effect whereas the stable solute gradient and compressibility have a stabilizing effect on the system. Graphs have been plotted by giving numerical values to the parameters to depict the stability characteristics. The stable solute gradient and viscoelasticity are found to introduce oscillatory modes in the system which are non-existent in their absence.

The Impact

In this article, a study on the stability of Walter-B viscoelastic fluid in the highly permeable porous medium under the rotational speed modulation is presented. The impact of rotational modulation on heat transport is performed through a weakly nonlinear analysis. A perturbation procedure based on the small amplitude of the perturbing parameter is used to study the combined effect of rotation and permeability on the stability through a porous medium. Rayleigh–Bénard convection with the Coriolis expression has been examined to explain the impact of rotation on the convective flow. The graphical result of different parameters like modified Prandtl number, Darcy number, Rayleigh number, and Taylor number on heat transfer have discussed. Furthermore, it is found that the modified Prandtl number decelerates the heat transport which may be due to the combined effect of elastic parameter and Taylor number.

The Stability

The present paper deals with a thermal instability problem in a viscoelastic fluid saturating an anisotropic porous medium under gravity modulation. To find the gravity modulation effect, the gravity field is considered in two parts: a constant part and an externally imposed time-dependent periodic part. The time-dependent part of the gravity field, which can be realized by shaking the fluid, has been represented by a sinusoidal function. Using Hill’s equation and the Floquet theory, the convective threshold has been obtained. It is found that gravity modulation can significantly affect the stability limits of the system. Further, we find that there is a competition between the synchronous and subharmonic modes of convection at the onset of instability. Effects of various parameters on the onset of instability have also been discussed.

Heat Transfer Characteristics

An analysis was carried out to study the effect of thermal radiation on magnetohydrodynamic boundary layer flow and heat transfer characteristics of a non-Newtonian viscoelastic fluid near the stagnation point of a vertical stretching sheet in a porous medium with internal heat generation–absorption. The flow is generated because of linear stretching of the sheet and influenced by the uniform magnetic field that is applied horizontally in the flow region. Using a similarity variable, the governing nonlinear partial differential equations have been transformed into a set of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations, which are solved numerically using an accurate implicit finite difference scheme. A comparison of the obtained results with previously published numerical results is done and the results are found to be in good agreement. The effects of the viscoelastic fluid parameter, magnetic field parameter, nonuniform heat source–sink, and the thermal radiation parameter on the heat transfer characteristics are presented graphically and discussed. The values of the skin friction coefficient and the local Nusselt number are tabulated for both cases of assisting and opposing flows.
