A Linear Stability Analysis of Thermal Convection in a Fluid Layer with Simultaneous Rotation and Magnetic Field Acting in Different Directions
Figure 3
Thermal instability analysis in the presence of a rotation and a magnetic field. Gravity vector parallel to both rotation vector and magnetic field vector. The dependence of the Rayleigh number () on the wave number () when . The effect of the Coriolis force: (without rotation, asterisks curves), (curves labelled a), (curves labelled b), and (curves labelled c). Left panel: free boundaries. Right panel: rigid boundaries.
