Rayleigh Taylor Instability of Two Rotating Maxwellian Superposed Fluid with Variable Magnetic Field in Porous Medium
Subscribe/Renew Journal
The instability of the plane interface between two viscoelastic (Maxwellian) superposed fluids in porous medium in the presence of uniform rotation and variable magnetic field is considered. The magnetic field, the viscosity and the density are assumed to be exponentially varying. For stable density stratification, the system is found to be stable for disturbances of all wave numbers. The magnetic field stabilizes the potentially unstable stratification for small wave-length perturbations which are otherwise unstable. The long wave-length perturbations remain unstable and are not stabilized by magnetic field. Rotation does not affect the stability or instability, as such, of stratification.
