On the Onsetof Thermal Instability in a Low Prandtl Number Nanofluid Layer in a Porous Medium
Thermal instability in a low Prandtl number nanofluid in a porous medium is investigated by using Galerkin weighted residuals method for free-free boundaries. For porous medium, Brinkman-Darcy modelis applied. The model used for the nanofluid describes the effects of Brownian motion and thermophores...
