Effects of Horizontal Magnetic Field and Rotation on Thermal Instability of a Couple-Stress Fluid through a Porous Medium: a Brinkman Model

A linear stability analysis is carried out to discuss the effects of horizontal magnetic field and horizontal rotation on thermal instability problem of a couple-stress fluid through a Brinkman porous medium. After employing normal mode method on the dimensionless linearized perturbation equations,...
