| Abstract: | The linear stability theory is used to investigate analytically the effect of a permeable mush–melt boundary condition on
the stability of solutal convection in a mushy layer of homogenous permeability at the near eutectic (solid) limit. The results
clearly show that, in contrast to the impermeable mush–melt interface boundary condition, the application of the permeable
mush–melt interface boundary condition destabilizes the convection in a mushy layer. |
