 Abstract - The effect of imposed time-periodic boundary dQ  temperature (ITBT, also called temperature modulation) and   Q  T magnetic field at the onset of convection is investigated by dt  making a linear analysis. The classical Fourier heat law is where, Q is the heat flux,  is a relaxation time and  is the replaced by the non-classical Maxwell-Cattaneo law. The classical approach predicts an infinite speed for the propagation heat conductivity. This heat conductivity equation together of heat. The adopted non-classical theory involves wave type of with conservation of energy equation introduces the heat transport and does not suffer from the physically hyperbolic equation, which describes heat propagation with unacceptable drawback of infinite heat propagation speed. The finite speed. Puri and Jordan [12, 13] and Puri and Kythe Venezian approach is adopted in arriving at the critical Rayleigh [14, 15] have studied other fluid mechanics problems by number, correction and wave number for employing the Maxwell-Cattaneo heat flux law. small amplitude of ITBT. Three cases of oscillating temperature field are examined: (a) symmetric, so that the wall temperatures Thomson [16] and Chandrasekhar [17] studied are modulated in phase, (b) asymmetric, corresponding to out-of theoretically and Nakagawa [18, 19] and Jirlow [20] studied phase modulation and (c) only the lower wall is modulated. The experimentally, the thermal stability in a horizontal layer of temperature modulation is shown to give rise to sub-critical fluid with magnetic field and found that vertical magnetic motion. The shift in the critical Rayleigh number is calculated as a function of frequency and it is found that it is possible to field delays the onset of thermal convection. The application advance or delay the onset of convection by time modulation of of magnetoconvection is primarily found in astrophysics and the wall temperatures. It is shown that the system is most stable in particular by the observation of sunspots. Motivated by the when the boundary temperatures are modulated out-of-phase. It above applications several authors investigated the is also found that the results are noteworthy at short times and suppression of convection by strong magnetic fields. the critical eigenvalues are less than the classical ones. One of the effective mechanisms of controlling the convection is by maintaining a non-uniform temperature Keywords: Time periodic boundary temperature, Rayleigh-Bénard gradient across the boundaries. Such a temperature gradient Chandrasekhar convection, Magnetic field, Maxwell-Cattaneo may be generated by (i) an appropriate heating or cooling at law. the boundaries, (ii) injection/suction of fluid at the I. INTRODUCTION boundaries, (iii) an appropriate distribution of heat source, and (iv) radiative heat transfer. These methods are mainly The Classical Fourier law of heat conduction concerned with only space-dependent temperature gradients. expresses that the heat flux within a medium is proportional However in practice, the non-uniform temperature gradients to the local temperature gradient in the system. A well find its origin in transient heating or cooling at the known consequence of this law is that heat perturbations boundaries. Hence, basic temperature profile depends propagate with an infinite velocity. This drawback of the explicitly on position and time. This problem, called the classical law motivated Maxwell [1], Cattaneo [2], Lebon and thermal modulation problem, involves solution of the energy Cloot [3], Dauby et al.

Pranesh [7], Pranesh and Kiran [8, 9, 10] and Pranesh and This temperature profile which is a function of both space and Smita[11] to adopt a non-classical Maxwell-Cattaneo heat time can be used as an effective mechanism to control the flux law in studying Rayleigh-Bénard/Marangoni convection convective flow by proper adjustment of its parameters, to get rid of this unphysical results.

We find that R 2c increases with increase in Q . When the The effect of 1 on R with respect to out-of-phase magnetic field strength permeating the medium is modulation and only lower wall modulation is illustrated in considerably strong, it induces viscosity into the fluid, and the Fig. 15 and Fig. 16. We observe that as 1 increases R magnetic lines are distorted by convection. Then these magnetic lines hinder the growth of disturbances, leading to increases thus increase in 1 stabilizes the system. It is also the delay in the onset of instability. observed from these figures that the frequency of modulation  destabilizes the system. Fig. 4 is the plot of R 2c versus frequency of The results of this study are useful in controlling the modulation  for different values of Prandtl number Pr,in convection by thermal modulation with Maxwell-Cattaneo the case of in-phase modulation. In the figure, we observe law. that as Pr increases R 2c becomes more and more negative. We can infer from this is that the effect of increasing the viscosity of the fluid is to destabilize the system. 100 In Phase Temperature Fig. 5 is the plot of R versus frequency of Modulation 2c C = 0.001 80 modulation  for different values of magnetic Prandtl C = 0.01 C = 0.03 number Pm, in the case of in-phase modulation. In the figure, C = 0.05 60 C = 0.07  we observe that as Pm increase R 2c becomes more and Pr = 0.9, Q = 10, Pm = 5 more negative. 40 We now discuss the results pertaining to out-of- phase modulation. Comparing Fig. 2 to Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 to 20 Fig. 9 respectively we find that R is positive for the out- 2c 0 of-phase modulation where as it is negative for in-phase -12 -10 -8 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 8 R modulation. Thus, Q, Pr and Pmhave opposing influence 2c in in-phase and out-of-phase modulations. However, C has Figure 2: identical influence on R 2c in both in-phase and out-of-phase Plot of R2c versus frequency of modulation  for different values of and these can be seen in Fig. 2 and Fig. 6. The above results Cattaneo number C. are due to the fact that the temperature field has essentially a linear gradient varying in time, so that the instantaneous 100 Rayleigh number is super critical for half cycle and In Phase Temperature subcritical during the other half cycle. Modulation Q = 0 80 Q = 10 The above results on the effect of various parameters Q = 25 on for out-of-phase modulation do not qualitatively Pr = 0.9, C = 0.01, Pm = 5 60 change in the case of temperature modulation of just the  lower boundary. This is illustrated with the help of Fig. 10 to 40 Fig. 13. 20 From the above result, we can conclude that the system is more stable when boundary temperature is 0 modulated in out-of-phase in compare to only lower wall -15 -10 -5 0 5 R modulation and in-phase modulation. In-phase temperature 2C modulation leads to sub critical motions.

Chandrasekhar number Q. Fig. 14 is the plot of Rayleigh number R versus amplitude of modulation 1 for different values of  , in the case of in-phase modulation. From the figure we observe that has amplitude of modulation 1 increases the Rayleigh number R also increases thus amplitude of modulation stabilizes the system. It can be clearly seen that as  increases R increases for smaller values of  and decreases for moderate values of  which reconforms our earlier discussion on this.
