Effect of Rotation on Thermal Instability in Couple-Stress Elastico-Viscous Fluid
نویسندگان
چکیده
The thermal instability of a layer of a couple-stress fluid acted on by a uniform rotation is considered. Following the linearized stability theory and normal mode analysis, the dispersion relation is obtained. For stationary convection it is found that rotation has a stabilizing effect, whereas the couple-stress has both stabilizing and destabilizing effects. It is found that the presence of rotation introduces oscillatory modes in the system. A sufficient condition for the non-existence of overstability is also obtained.

متن کاملRivlin-erickson Elastico-viscous Fluid of Related Density
A layer of compressible, rotating, elastico-viscous fluid of related density heated & soluted from below is considered in the presence of vertical magnetic field to include the effect of Hall currents. Dispersion relation governing the effect of visco-elasticity, salinity gradient, rotation, magnetic field and Hall currents is derived. For the case of stationary convection, the Rivlin-Erickson ...
متن کاملSlip flow of an optically thin radiating non-Gray couple stress fluid past a stretching sheet
This paper addresses the combined effects of couple stresses, thermal radiation, viscous dissipation and slip condition on a free convective flow of a couple stress fluid induced by a vertical stretching sheet. The Cogley- Vincenti-Gilles equilibrium model is employed to include the effects of thermal radiation in the study. The governing boundary layer equations are transformed into a system o...
متن کاملElastico-Viscous Flow between Two Rotating Discs of Different Transpiration for High Reynolds Numbers (RESEARCH NOTE)
The flow in an elastico-viscous fluid between two co-axial infinite rotating porous discs is considered for high cross flow Reynolds number. The discs are rotating with different angular velocity and the injection rate of the fluid at one disc is different from the suction rate of other disc. The effect of suction parameters on the velocity components have been investigated numerically and solv...
متن کاملGlobal Stability for Thermal Convection in a Couple Stress Fluid Saturating a Porous Medium with Temperature-Pressure Dependent Viscosity: Galerkin Method
A global nonlinear stability analysis is performed for a couple-stress fluid layer heated from below saturating a porous medium with temperature-pressure dependent viscosity for different conducting boundary systems. Here, the global nonlinear stability threshold for convection is exactly the same as the linear instability boundary. This optimal result is important because it shows that lineari...
