Abstract The study is aimed at analysing thermal convection in a compressible couple stress fluid in a porous medium in the presence of rotation and magnetic field. After linearizing the relevant equations, the perturbation equations are analysed in terms of normal modes. A dispersion relation governing the effects of rotation, magnetic field, couple stress parameter and medium permeability have been examined. For a stationary convection, the rotation postpones the onset of convection in a couple stress fluid heated from below in a porous medium in the presence of a magnetic field. Whereas, the magnetic field and couple stress postpones and hastens the onset of convection in the presence of rotation and the medium permeability hastens and postpones the onset of convection with conditions on Taylor number. Further the oscillatory modes are introduced due to the presence of rotation and the magnetic field which were non-existent in their absence, and hence the principle of exchange stands valid. The sufficient conditions for nonexistence of over stability are also obtained.

Double Diffusive

The double-diffusive convection in a compressible couple-stress fluid layer heated and soluted from below through porous medium is considered in the presence of a uniform vertical magnetic field. Following the linearized stability theory and normal mode analysis, the dispersion relation is obtained. For stationary convection, the compressibility, stable solute gradient, magnetic field, and couple-stress postpone the onset of convection whereas medium permeability hastens the onset of convection. Graphs have been plotted by giving numerical values to the parameters to depict the stability characteristics. The stable solute gradient and magnetic field introduce oscillatory modes in the system, which were non-existent in their absence. A condition for the system to be stable is obtained by using the Rayleigh-Ritz inequality. The sufficient conditions for the non-existence of overstability are also obtained.

Abstract An investigation made on the effect of Hall currents on double-diffusive convection of a compressible synovial (couple-stress) fluid in the presence of a horizontal magnetic field through a porous layer is considered. The analysis is carried out within the framework of linear stability theory and normal mode technique. A dispersion relation governing the effects of viscoelasticity, compressibility, magnetic field and porous layer is derived. For the stationary convection, a synovial fluid behaves like an ordinary Newtonian fluid due to the vanishing of the viscoelastic parameter. The stable-solute gradient, compressibility, and magnetic field have postponed the onset of convection, whereas Hall currents and medium permeability have not postponed the onset of convection, moreover, a synovial fluid has a dual character in the presence of Hall currents, whereas in the absence of Hall current in synovial fluid have postponed the onset of convection, which is in contrast in case of thermal convection couple-stress fluid with same effects. These analytic results are confirmed numerically and the effects of various parameters are depicted graphically. It has been observed that oscillatory modes are introduced due to the presence of viscoelasticity, magnetic field, porous medium and Hall currents which were non- existent in their absence. The sufficient conditions for the non-existence of overstability are also obtained.

AbstractThermal Instability (Benard’s Convection) in the presence of uniform rotation and uniform magnetic field (separately) is studied. Using the linearized stability theory and normal mode analyses the dispersion relation is obtained in each case. In the case of rotatory Benard’s stationary convection compressibility and rotation postpone the onset of convection whereas the couple-stress have duel character onset of convection depending on rotation parameter. While in the absence of rotation couple-stress always postpones the onset of convection. On the other hand, magnetic field on thermal instability problem on couple-stress fluid for stationary convection couple-stress parameter and magnetic field postpones the onset of convection. The effect of compressibility also postpones the onset of convection in both cases as rotation and magnetic field. Graphs have been plotted by giving numerical values to the parameters to depict the stationary characteristics. Further, the magnetic field and rotation are found to introduce oscillatory modes which were non-existent in their absence and then the principle of exchange of stability is valid. The sufficient conditions for non-existence of overstability are also obtained.

A numerical computation has been carriedout for the steady, mixed convective, incompressible, viscous, electrically conducting couple stress fluid through a vertical plate with variable fluid properties in a porous medium. A uniform magnetic field is applied in the transverse direction and parallel to the vertical plate of the physical model and governing equations are derived for it."Using a suitable similarity transformation, governed PDE's are transformed into a set of ODE's which are highly non-linear coupled equations. An advanced Shooting technique is adopted to compute the variations of velocity, temperature, concentration in terms of non-dimensional parameters. Also physical interpretation of non-dimensional parameters like couple stress parameter magnetic field Prandtl number Schmidt number thermal conductivity and solutal diffusivity parameters are examined through plots for both variable permeability and uniform permeability."From the numerical results, an excellent agreement has been observed for the present results, as well as comparison is made between the present and the earlier works for a particular case of the problem.

The outset of convection in a thin layer of couple stress fluid is analyzed using the linear stability analysis when the fluid is heated from below. In order to assimilate the inertial effects Maxwell-Cattaneo law is used in lieu of the classical Fourier's heat conduction law. The normal mode analysis is used to arrive at the eigenvalues of the perturbed state and a regular perturbation method to find the analytical solutions. The effect of Cattaneo number, couple stress parameter and Prandtl number is discussed and it is concluded that gravity modulation can delay or advance the onset of convection.
