A Characterization Theorem in Magnetohydrodynamic Triply Diffusive Convection with Viscosity Variations
Subscribe/Renew Journal
The paper mathematically establishes that magnetohydrodynamic triply diffusive convection, with variable viscosity and with one of the components as heat with diffusivity κ, cannot manifest itself as oscillatory motions of growing amplitude in an initially bottom heavy configuration if the two concentration Rayleigh numbers R1 and R2, the Lewis numbers τ1 and τ2 for the two concentrations with diffusivities k1 and k2 respectively (with no loss of generality κ > κ1 > κ2), μmin (the minimum value of viscosity μ in the closed interval [0,1]) and the Prandtl number σ satisfy the inequality R1 + R2 ≤ 27π4/4{μmin+(τ1+τ2)/σ/1+τ1/τ22 provided D2μ is positive everywhere. It is further proved that this result is uniformly valid for any combination of rigid and/or free perfectly conducting boundaries.
