Abstract
Analysis of Linear stability on double diffusive convection in a fluid
saturated anisotropic porous layer with Soret effect
S. N. Gaikwad and S. S. Kamble
The double diffusive convection in a horizontal anisotropic porous layer saturated with a Boussinesq fluid, which is heated and salted from below in the presence of Soret coefficient is studied analytically using linear stability analysis based on the usual normal mode technique. The generalized Darcy model is employed for the momentum equation. The effect of mechanical anisotropy parameter, thermal anisotropy parameter, Lewis number and Soret parameter on stationary and oscillatory convection are shown graphically.
