A Linear Stability Analysis of Thermal Convection in a Fluid Layer with Simultaneous Rotation and Magnetic Field Acting in Different Directions
Figure 6
Thermal instability analysis in the presence of a rotation and a magnetic field. The dependence of the Rayleigh number for the onset of instability on the wave number when and (for free surfaces). Left panel: rotation vector at , for different values of , (continuous line), (+ curve), ( curve), and ( curve). Right panel: magnetic field vector at , for different values of , (continuous line), (+ curve), ( curve), and ( curve).
