The linear stability of triply diffusive convection in a binary Maxwell fluid saturated porous layer is investigated. Applying normal mode analysis , the criterion for the onset of stationary and oscillatory convection is obtained. The modified Darcy-Maxwell model is used as the analysis model. This allows us to make a thorough investigation of the processes of viscoelasticity and diffusions that causes the convection to set in through oscillatory rather than stationary. The effects of the parameters of Vadasz number, normalized porosity parameter, relaxation parameter, Lewis number and solute Rayleigh number are presented.

Abstract The onset of thermal convection in an anisotropic horizontal porous layer heated from below and rotating about vertical axis, under local thermal non-equilibrium hypothesis is studied. Linear and nonlinear stability analysis of the conduction solution is performed. Coincidence between the linear instability and the global nonlinear stability thresholds with respect to the L2—norm is proved. Article Highlights A necessary and sufficient condition for the onset of convection in a rotating anisotropic porous layer has been obtained. It has been proved that convection can occur only through a steady motion. A detailed proof is reported thoroughly. Numerical analysis shows that permeability promotes convection, while thermal conductivities and rotation stabilize conduction.
