The combined effects of vertical heterogeneity of permeability and local thermal non-equilibrium (LTNE) on the onset of ferromagnetic
convection in a ferrofluid saturated Darcy porous medium in the presence of a uniform vertical magnetic field are investigated.
A two-field model for temperature representing the solid and fluid phases separately is used. The eigenvalue problem is solved
numerically using the Galerkin method for different forms of permeability heterogeneity function Γ( z) and their effect on the stability characteristics of the system has been analyzed in detail. It is observed that the general
quadratic variation of Γ( z) with depth has more destabilizing effect on the system when compared to the homogeneous porous medium case. Besides, the
influence of LTNE and magnetic parameters on the criterion for the onset of ferromagnetic convection is also assessed. 相似文献

The effect of local thermal non-equilibrium (LTNE) on the onset of thermomagnetic convection in a ferromagnetic fluid-saturated
horizontal porous layer in the presence of a uniform vertical magnetic field is investigated. A modified Forchheimer-extended
Darcy equation is employed to describe the flow in the porous medium, and a two-field model is used for temperature representing
the solid and fluid phases separately. It is found that both the critical Darcy–Rayleigh number and the corresponding wave
number are modified by the LTNE effects. Asymptotic solutions for both small and large values of scaled interphase heat transfer
coefficient H
t are presented and compared with those computed numerically. An excellent agreement is obtained between the asymptotic and
the numerical results. Besides, the influence of magnetic parameters on the instability of the system is also discussed. The
available results in the literature are recovered as particular cases from the present study. 相似文献

The simultaneous effect of local thermal nonequilibrium (LTNE) and magnetic field dependent (MFD) viscosity on thermal convective instability in a horizontal ferrofluid saturated Brinkman porous layer in the presence of a uniform vertical magnetic field is studied analytically. The results indicate that the onset of Brinkman ferroconvection is delayed with increasing MFD viscosity parameter but the critical wave number is found to be independent of this parameter. When compared to the simultaneous presence of buoyancy and magnetic forces, it is observed that the onset of Brinkman ferroconvection is delayed more when the magnetic forces alone are present. Asymptotic solutions for both small and large values of scaled inter-phase heat transfer coefficient H t are compared with those computed numerically and good agreement is found between them. Besides, the influence of magnetic and LTNE parameters on the stability characteristics of the system is also discussed. The available results in the literature are recovered as particular cases from the present study. 相似文献

Finger type double diffusive convective instability in a fluid-saturated porous medium is studied in the presence of coupled
heat-solute diffusion. A local thermal non-equilibrium (LTNE) condition is invoked to model the Darcian porous medium which
takes into account the energy transfer between the fluid and solid phases. Linear stability theory is implemented to compute
the critical thermal Rayleigh number and the corresponding wavenumber exactly for the onset of stationary convection. The
effects of Soret and Dufour cross-diffusion parameters, inter-phase heat transfer coefficient and porosity modified conductivity
ratio on the instability of the system are investigated. The analysis shows that positive Soret mass flux triggers instability
and positive Dufour energy flux enhances stability whereas their combined influence depends on the product of solutal Rayleigh
number and Lewis number. It also reveals that cell width at the convection threshold gets affected only in the presence of
both the cross-diffusion fluxes. Besides, asymptotic solutions for both small and large values of the inter-phase heat transfer
coefficient and porosity modified conductivity ratio are found. An excellent agreement is found between the exact and asymptotic
solutions. 相似文献

The triple-diffusive convection in a micropolar ferromagnetic fluid layer heated and soluted from below is considered in the presence of a transverse uniform magnetic field. An exact solution is obtained for a flat fluid layer contained between two free boundaries. A linear stability analysis and a normal mode analysis method are carried out to study the onset convection. For stationary convection, various parameters such as the medium permeability, the solute gradients, the non-buoyancy magnetization, and the micropolar parameters (i.e., the coupling parameter, the spin diffusion parameter, and the micropolar heat conduction parameter) are analyzed. The critical magnetic thermal Rayleigh number for the onset of instability is determined numerically for a sufficiently large value of the buoyancy magnetization parameter M 1. The principle of exchange of stabilities is found to be true for the micropolar fluid heated from below in the absence of the micropolar viscous effect, the microinertia, and the solute gradients. The micropolar viscous effect, the microinertia, and the solute gradient introduce oscillatory modes, which are non-existent in their absence. Sufficient conditions for the non-existence of overstability are also obtained. 相似文献

The effect of Coriolis force on the onset of ferromagnetic convection in a rotating horizontal ferrofluid saturated porous
layer in the presence of a uniform vertical magnetic field is studied. The boundaries are considered to be either stress free
or rigid. The modified Brinkman–Forchheimer-extended Darcy equation with fluid viscosity different from effective viscosity
is used to characterize the fluid motion. The condition for the occurrence of direct and Hopf bifurcations is obtained analytically
in the case of free boundaries, while for rigid boundaries the eigenvalue problem has been solved numerically using the Galerkin
method. Contrary to their stabilizing effect in the absence of rotation, increasing the ratio of viscosities, Λ, and decreasing
the Darcy number Da show a partial destabilizing effect on the onset of stationary ferromagnetic convection in the presence of rotation, and
some important observations are made on the stability characteristics of the system. Moreover, the similarities and differences
between free–free and rigid–rigid boundaries in the presence of buoyancy and magnetic forces together or in isolation are
emphasized in triggering the onset of ferromagnetic convection in a rotating ferrofluid saturated porous layer. For smaller
Taylor number domain, the stress-free boundaries are found to be always more unstable than in the case of rigid boundaries.
However, this trend is reversed at higher Taylor number domain because the stability of the stress-free case is increased
more quickly than the rigid case. 相似文献

A linear stability analysis is carried out to study viscoelastic fluid convection in a horizontal porous layer heated from below and cooled from above when the solid and fluid phases are not in a local thermal equilibrium. The modified Darcy–Brinkman–Maxwell model is used for the momentum equation and two-field model is used for the energy equation each representing the solid and fluid phases separately. The conditions for the onset of stationary and oscillatory convection are obtained analytically. Linear stability analysis suggests that, there is a competition between the processes of viscoelasticity and thermal diffusion that causes the first convective instability to be oscillatory rather than stationary. Elasticity is found to destabilize the system. Besides, the effects of Darcy number, thermal non-equilibrium and the Darcy–Prandtl number on the stability of the system are analyzed in detail. 相似文献

The effect of magnetic field dependent viscosity on thermosolutal convection in a ferromagnetic fluid saturating a porous medium is considered for a fluid layer heated and soluted from below in the presence of uniform magnetic field. Using linearized stability theory and normal mode analysis, an exact solution is obtained for the case of two free boundaries. For case of stationary convection, medium permeability has a destabilizing effect, whereas a stable solute gradient and magnetic field dependent viscosity have a stabilizing effect on the system. In the absence of magnetic field dependent viscosity, the destabilizing effect of non-buoyancy magnetization is depicted but in the presence of magnetic field dependent viscosity non-buoyancy magnetization may have a destabilizing or stabilizing effect on the onset of instability. The critical wave number and the critical magnetic thermal Rayleigh number for the onset of instability are also determined numerically for sufficiently large values of buoyancy magnetization parameter M1 and the results are depicted graphically. The principle of exchange of stabilities is found to hold true for the ferromagnetic fluid saturating a porous medium heated from below in the absence of stable solute gradient. The oscillatory modes are introduced due to the presence of the stable solute gradient, which were non-existent in its absence. A sufficient condition for the non-existence of overstability is also obtained. The paper also reaffirms the qualitative findings of earlier investigations which are, in fact, limiting cases of the present study. 相似文献

Double diffusive convection in a fluid-saturated rotating porous layer is studied when the fluid and solid phases are not
in local thermal equilibrium, using both linear and nonlinear stability analyses. The Brinkman model that includes the Coriolis
term is employed as the momentum equation. A two-field model that represents the fluid and solid phase temperature fields
separately is used for the energy equation. The onset criterion for stationary, oscillatory, and finite amplitude convection
is derived analytically. It is found that small inter-phase heat transfer coefficient has significant effect on the stability
of the system. There is a competition between the processes of thermal diffusion, solute diffusion, and rotation that causes
the convection to set in through either oscillatory or finite amplitude mode rather than stationary. The effect of solute
Rayleigh number, porosity modified conductivity ratio, Lewis number, diffusivity ratio, Vadasz number, and Taylor number on
the stability of the system is investigated. The nonlinear theory based on the truncated representation of Fourier series
method predicts the occurrence of subcritical instability in the form of finite amplitude motions. The effect of thermal non-equilibrium
on heat and mass transfer is also brought out. Some of the convection systems previously reported in the literature is shown
to be special cases of the system presented in this study. 相似文献

Stability analysis of free convection in a liquid-saturated sparsely-packed porous medium with local-thermal-non-equilibrium (LTNE) effect is presented. For the vertical boundaries free–free, adiabatic and rigid–rigid, adiabatic are considered while for horizontal boundaries it is the stress-free, isothermal and rigid–rigid, isothermal boundary combinations we consider. From the linear theory, it is apparent that there is advanced onset of convection in a shallow enclosure followed by that in square and tall enclosures. Asymptotic analysis of the thermal Rayleigh number for small and large values of the inter-phase heat transfer coefficient is reported. Results of Darcy–Bénard convection (DBC) and Rayleigh–Bénard convection can be obtained as limiting cases of the study. LTNE effect is prominent in the case of Brinkman–Bénard convection compared to that in DBC. Using a multi-scale method and by performing a non-linear stability analysis the Ginzburg–Landau equation is derived from the five-mode Lorenz modal. Heat transport is estimated at the lower plate of the channel. The effect of the Brinkman number, the porous parameter and the inter-phase heat transfer coefficient is to favour delayed onset of convection and thereby enhanced heat transport while the porosity-modified ratio of thermal conductivities shows the opposite effect. 相似文献

The effect of rotation and anisotropy on the onset of double diffusive convection in a horizontal porous layer is investigated
using a linear theory and a weak nonlinear theory. The linear theory is based on the usual normal mode technique and the nonlinear
theory on the truncated Fourier series analysis. Darcy model extended to include time derivative and Coriolis terms with anisotropic
permeability is used to describe the flow through porous media. The effect of rotation, mechanical and thermal anisotropy
parameters, and the Prandtl number on the stationary and overstable convection is discussed. It is found that the effect of
mechanical anisotropy is to allow the onset of oscillatory convection instead of stationary. It is also found that the existence
of overstable motions in case of rotating porous medium is not restricted to a particular range of Prandtl number as compared
to the pure viscous fluid case. The finite amplitude analysis is performed to find the thermal and solute Nusselt numbers.
The effect of various parameters on heat and mass transfer is also investigated. 相似文献

A linear stability analysis was performed in order to study the onset of thermal convection in the presence of a strong viscosity variation, with a special emphasis on the condition for the stagnant-lid (ST) convection where a convection takes place only in a sublayer beneath a highly viscous lid of cold fluid. We consider the temporal evolution (growth or decay) of an infinitesimal perturbation superimposed to a Boussinesq fluid with an infinite Prandtl number which is in a static (motionless) and conductive state in a basally heated planar layer or spherical shell. The viscosity of the fluid is assumed to be exponentially dependent on temperature. The linearized equations for conservations of mass, momentum, and internal (thermal) energy are numerically solved for the critical Rayleigh number, Ra c , as well as the radial profiles of eigenfunctions for infinitesimal perturbations. The above calculations are repeatedly carried out by systematically varying (i) the magnitude of the temperature dependence of viscosity, E, and (ii) the ratio of the inner and outer radii of the spherical shell, γ. A careful analysis of the vertical structure of incipient flows demonstrated that the dominance of the ST convection can be quantitatively identified by the vertical profile of Δ h (a measure of conversion between horizontal and vertical flows), regardless of the model geometries. We also found that, in the spherical shell relevant to the Earth’s mantle ( γ = 0.55), the transition into ST convection takes place at the viscosity contrast across the layer ${r_\eta\simeq10^4}$ . Taken together with the fact that the threshold value of r η falls in the range of r η for a so-called sluggish-lid convection, our finding suggests that the ST-mode of convection with horizontally elongated convection cells is likely to arise in the Earth’s mantle solely from the temperature-dependent viscosity. 相似文献

Summary The thermal instability of a Rivlin–Ericksen fluid in a porous medium is considered in the presence of a uniform vertical
magnetic field to include the effect of Hall currents. For the case of stationary convection, the magnetic field has a stabilizing
effect on the system, whereas the Hall current has a destabilizing effect on the system. The medium permeability has both
stabilizing and destabilizing effects, depending on the Hall parameter M. The kinematic viscoelasticity has no effect on stationary convection. Graphs have been plotted by giving numerical values
to the parameters, to depict the stability characteristics. The magnetic field (and corresponding Hall currents) introduces
oscillatory modes in the system, which would be nonexistent in their absence. The sufficient conditions for the nonexistence
of overstability are also obtained.

The onset of Darcy–Brinkman double-diffusive convection in a binary viscoelastic fluid-saturated porous layer is studied using both linear and weakly nonlinear stability analyses. The Oldroyd-B model is employed to describe the rheological behavior of the fluid. An extended form of Darcy–Oldroyd law incorporating the Brinkman’s correction and time derivative is used to describe the fluid flow and the Oberbeck–Boussinesq approximation is invoked. The onset criterion for stationary and oscillatory convection is derived analytically. The effects of rheological parameters, Darcy number, normalized porosity, Lewis number, solute Rayleigh number, and Darcy–Prandtl number on the stability of the system is investigated. The results indicated that there is a competition among the processes of thermal, solute diffusions and viscoelasticity that causes the convection to set in through the oscillatory modes rather than the stationary. The Darcy–Prandtl number has a dual effect on the threshold of oscillatory convection. The nonlinear theory based on the method of truncated representation of Fourier series is used to find the transient heat and mass transfer. Some existing results are reproduced as the particular cases of present study. 相似文献

The effect of depth-dependent viscosity on the onset of convection in deep horizontal layers heated from below is investigated. In the Zeytounian deep convection model (1989), the depth-dependent viscosity is introduced. The instability threshold of the thermal conduction rest state, is evaluated (in the free-free case). It is obtained that: (1) the strong principle of exchange of stability holds; (2) the instability threshold depends – via a simple closed form (1.1) – on the viscosity law; (3) a fall in the instability threshold is driven by the depth-dependent viscosity. The action of (quadratic) polynomial and exponential depth-dependent viscosity on the instability threshold is evaluated. Although needs to be verified by experiments, the results obtained appear to be of interest not only for theoreticians but also for experimentalists. 相似文献

Effect of local thermal non-equilibrium (LTNE) on onset of Brinkman–Bénard convection and on heat transport is investigated. Rigid–rigid and free–free, isothermal boundaries are considered for investigation. The assumption of LTNE leads to an ‘advanced onset’ situation compared to that predicted by the local thermal equilibrium (LTE) assumption. This results in the ‘enhanced heat transport’ situation in the problem. Asymptotic analysis for small and large values of inter-phase heat transfer coefficient is also carried out on critical Rayleigh number, critical wave number and Nusselt number. In respect of boundary influences on onset and heat transport, it is found that classical results hold even under the LTNE assumption. The other parameters’ influences on onset and heat transport are qualitatively similar in LTNE and LTE cases. 相似文献

This study focuses analytically on the local thermal non-equilibrium (LTNE) effects in the developed region of forced convection in a saturated porous medium bounded by isothermal parallel-plates. The flow in the channel is described by the Brinkman–Forchheimer-extended Darcy equation and the LTNE effects are accounted by utilizing the two-equation model. Profiles describing the velocity field obtained by perturbation techniques are used to find the temperature distributions by the successive approximation method. A fundamental relation for the temperature difference between the fluid and solid phases (the LTNE intensity) is established based on a perturbation analysis. It is found that the LTNE intensity ( $\Delta \textit{NE}$ ) is proportional to the product of the normalized velocity and the dimensionless temperature at LTE condition. Also, it depends on the conductivity ratio, Da number, and the porosity of the medium. The intensity of LTNE condition ( $\Delta \textit{NE}$ ) is maximum at the middle of the channel and decreases smoothly to zero by moving to the wall. Finally, the established relation for the intensity of LTNE condition is simple and fundamental for estimating the importance of LTNE condition and validation of numerical simulation results. 相似文献

The linear stability of a viscoelastic fluid saturated densely packed horizontal porous layer heated from below and cooled
from above is investigated by considering the Oldroyd-B type fluid. A generalized Darcy model, which takes into account the
viscoelastic properties, is employed as momentum equation and a two-field model is used for energy equation each representing
solid and fluid phases separately. Linear stability analysis suggests that, there is a competition between the processes of
viscous relaxation and thermal diffusion that causes the first convective instability to be oscillatory rather than stationary.
Analytical expression for the occurrence of oscillatory onset is obtained, and it is found that the necessary condition for
the existence of the same is Λ < 1. Besides, the effect of viscoelastic parameters and the thermal non-equilibrium on the
stability of the system is analyzed. 相似文献
