Abstract

An investigation is carried out to determine the effect of uniform and non-uniform temperature profiles on single component Darcy-Benard Marangoni (DBM) convection in a composite layer system consisting of an incompressible fluid saturated porous layer on top of which is a layer of the same fluid with variable heat sources in both layers. The upper surface of the fluid layer is free with surface tension effects depending on temperature and the lower surface of the porous layer is rigid. The eigen value, thermal Marangoni number (TMN) is solved exactly for linear, parabolic and inverted parabolic temperature profiles for the adiabatic thermal boundary conditions at the horizontal boundaries of the composite layer. The influence of various dimensionless parameters on the eigen value against depth ratio is discussed in detail.
