The problem of Benard double diffusive Marangoni convection is investigated in a horizontally infinite composite layer system enclosed by adiabatic boundaries for Darcy model. This composite layer is subjected to three temperature gradients with constant heat sources in both the layers. The lower boundary of the porous region is rigid and upper boundary of the fluid region is free with Marangoni effects. The Eigenvalue problem of a system of ordinary differential equations is solved in closed form for the Thermal Marangoni number, which happens to be the Eigen value. The three different temperature profiles considered are linear, parabolic and inverted parabolic profiles with the corresponding thermal Marangoni numbers are obtained. The impact of the porous parameter, modified internal Rayleigh number, solute Marangoni number, solute diffusivity ratio and the diffusivity ratio on Darcy-Benard double diffusive Marangoni convection are investigated in detail.

The problem of non-Darcian-Bènard double diffusive magneto-Marangoni convection   is considered in a horizontal infinite two layer system. The system consists of a two-component fluid layer placed above a porous layer, saturated with the same fluid with a constant heat sources/sink in both the layers, in the presence of a vertical magnetic field.   The lower porous layer is bounded by rigid boundary, while the upper boundary of the fluid region is free with the presence of Marangoni effects.  The system of ordinary differential equations obtained after normal mode analysis is solved in a closed form for the eigenvalue and the Thermal Marangoni Number (TMN) for two cases of Thermal Boundary Combinations (TBC); these are type (i) Adiabatic-Adiabatic and type (ii) Adiabatic-Isothermal.  The corresponding two TMNs   are obtained and the impacts of the porous parameter, solute Marangoni number, modified internal Rayleigh numbers, viscosity ratio, and the diffusivity ratios on the non-Darcian-Bènard double diffusive magneto - Marangoni convection are studied in detail.

Double diffusive Marangoni convection flow of viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid in a square cavity is studied in this paper by taking into consideration of the effect of applied magnetic field in arbitrary direction and the chemical reaction. The governing equations are solved numerically by using alternate direct implicit (ADI) method together with the successive over relaxation (SOR) technique. The flow pattern with the effect of governing parameters, namely the buoyancy ratio W, diffusocapillary ratio w, and the Hartmann number Ha, is investigated. It is revealed from the numerical simulations that the average Nusselt number decreases; whereas the average Sherwood number increases as the orientation of magnetic field is shifted from horizontal to vertical. Moreover, the effect of buoyancy due to species concentration on the flow is stronger than the one due to thermal buoyancy. The increase in diffusocapillary parameter, w causes the average Nusselt number to decrease, and average Sherwood number to increase.
