On the Onset of Thermosolutal Instability in a Layer of an Elastico- Viscous Nanofluid in Porous Medium

چکیده
The thermosolutal instability problem in a horizontal layer of an elasticoviscous nanofluid in porous medium is considered. Walters’ (model B') fluid model is employed to describe the rheological behavior of the nanofluid and for the porous medium, the Darcy model is employed. From the linear stability analysis based upon normal modes analysis method, the dispersion relation accounting for the effect of various parameters is derived. The onset criterion for stationary convection is analytically derived and it is observed that the Walters’ (model B') elastico-viscous nanofluid fluid behaves like an ordinary Newtonian nanofluid. The effects of solutal Rayleigh Number, thermo-nanofluid Lewis number, thermosolutal Lewis number, Soret and Dufour parameter on the stability of stationary convection are investigated.

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.

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...
