Thermal instability in a porous medium layer saturated by a nanofluid

The onset of convection in a horizontal layer of a porous medium saturated by a nanofluid is studied analytically. The model used for the nanofluid incorporates the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis. The analysis reveals that for a typical nanofluid (with large Lewis number) the prime ef...
