An attempt has been made to investigate the instability of the plane interface between two viscoelastic superposed conducting fluids in the presence of suspended particles and variable horizontal magnetic field through porous medium is studied. The cases of two fluids of uniform densities, viscosities, magnetic fields, and suspended particles number densities separated by a horizontal boundary; and of exponentially varying density, viscosity, suspended particles number density, and magnetic field are considered. It is found that the stability criterion is independent of the effects of viscoelasticity, medium porosity, and suspended particles but is dependent on the orientation and magnitude of the magnetic field. The magnetic field succeeds in stabilizing a certain range of wavenumbers which were unstable in the absence of the magnetic field. The system is found to be stable for potentially stable configuration/stratification. The growth rates are found to increase (for certain wavenumbers) and decrease (for other wavenumbers) with the increase in kinematic viscosity, suspended particles number density, magnetic field, medium permeability and stress relaxation time.

Abstract In this paper, the thermal instability of compressible Walters’ (Model B′) rotating fluid permeated with suspended particles (fine dust) in porous medium in hydromagnetics is considered. By applying normal mode analysis method, the dispersion relation has been derived and solved analytically. It is observed that the rotation, magnetic field, suspended particles and viscoelasticity introduce oscillatory modes. For stationary convection, Walters’ (Model B′) elastico-viscous fluid behaves like an ordinary Newtonian fluid and it is observed that rotation has stabilizing effect, suspended particles are found to have destabilizing effect on the system, whereas the medium permeability has stabilizing or destabilizing effect on the system under certain conditions. The magnetic field has destabilizing effect in the absence of rotation, whereas in the presence of rotation, magnetic field has stabilizing or destabilizing effect under certain conditions

In this paper we investigate the effect of surface tension on hydromagnetic Rayleigh-Taylor (R-T) instability of two incompressible superimposed fluids in a porous medium with suspended dust particles immersed in a uniform horizontal magnetic field. The relevant linearized perturbation equations have been solved using normal mode technique and the dispersion relation is derived analytically for the considered system. The dispersion relation is influenced by the simultaneous presence of medium porosity, suspended dust particles, permeability, magnetic field and surface tension. The onset criteria of R-T stability and instability are obtained and discussed. The growth rate of R-T instability is calculated numerically and is affected by the simultaneous presence of surface tension and magnetic field. The effects of various parameters on the growth rate of the R-T instability are discussed.
