RT Journal Article ID 56028aad0c9c257f A1 Prakash, Jyoti A1 Vaid, Kanu A1 Bala, Renu T1 On arresting the Complex Growth Rates in Magnetohydrodynamic Triply Diffusive Convection JF International Journal of Fluid Mechanics Research JO FMR YR 2015 FD 2015-10-29 VO 42 IS 5 SP 391 OP 403 AB The paper mathematically establishes that the complex growth rate (pr ,pi) of an arbitrary neutral or unstable oscillatory perturbation of growing amplitude, in a magneto triply diffusive fluid layer with one of the components as heat with diffusivity κ must lie inside a semicircle in the right half of the (pr,pi) plane whose centre is origin and radius is max[√((R1 + R2)σ), Qσ], where R1 and R2 are the Rayleigh numbers for the two concentration components with diffusivities κ1 and κ2 (with no loss of generality κ > κ1 > κ2), Q is the Chandrasekhar number and σ is the thermal Prandtl number. It is further proved that the above result is uniformly valid for any combination of rigid and free boundaries (which may be insulating or perfectly conducting).
