Fluid Motions in a Sphere III Thermal Instability of a Rotating Fluid Sphere Heated Within under a Uniform Magnetic Field

The influence of simultaneous action of Corios force and magnetic field on convection in a non-viscus fluid sphere heated within is examined. It is found that there is only axially symmetric solutions of the marginal stability, and inhibition of convection by a magnetic field is pronounced when the...

Summary:The influence of simultaneous action of Corios force and magnetic field on convection in a non-viscus fluid sphere heated within is examined. It is found that there is only axially symmetric solutions of the marginal stability, and inhibition of convection by a magnetic field is pronounced when the intensity of magnetic field is larger than a critical value.
