We investigate the stability of convection in a porous medium containing a heat source in which a destabilizing salt field and stabilizing temperature gradient are present. Both conditional and unconditional nonlinear stability thresholds are calculated and we note that RaE(conditional)>RaE(unconditional). The unconditional nonlinear analysis requires the use of a “weighted” energy.

We study the structural stability of a problem in a porous medium when the density of saturating liquid is a nonlinear function of temperature and an internal heat source is present. We prove a convergence result for the Forchheimer coefficient. That is to say, when λ → 0, the solution of the non-isothermal flow in a porous medium of the Forchheimer type, see (1.1), can converge to the solution of the equivalent Darcy type.
