The effect of a uniform distribution of heat source on the onset of stationary convection in a horizontal Boussinesq magnetic fluid layer bounded by isothermal nonmagnetic boundaries is investigated. Solutions are obtained using a higher order Galerkin expansion technique, considering different isothermal boundary combinations (rigid-rigid, rigid-free, and free-free). It is found that the effect of internal magnetic number, due to a heat source, is to make the system more unstable. The results obtained, in the limiting cases, compare well with the existing literature.

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.

AbstractA problem of thermal instability of a compressible micropolar fluid layer heated from below in the presence of suspended particles has been investigated. Dispersion relation is derived and Rayleigh number curve is then plotted against the wavenumber at different values of compressibility parameter for a model example. Compressibility is found to be responsible to destabilize the system in the presence and absence of suspended particles for both stationary and over stationary convection.
