  Effect MFD Viscosity on Bénard–Marangoni Ferroconvection in a Rotating Ferrofluid Layer with Convective Surface Boundary Condition

  By Savitha B, C E Nanjundappa C E

  Abstract: AbstractThe combined effect of Coriolis force due to rotation and magnetic field dependent (MFD) viscosity on the onset of Bénard–Marangoni convection in a horizontal layer of ferrofluid is investigated theoretically. The lower boundary is taken to be rigid–isothermal, while the upper free boundary open to the atmosphere is flat and subject to a convective surface boundary condition. The Galerkin technique is employed to extract the critical stability parameters numerically. It …
