Description
The paper investigates the impact of cross-diffusion on triple-diffusive convection in a bi-viscous Bingham fluid layer. Non-linear stability analysis is performed, and the expression of the critical-Rayleigh-number is obtained, resulting in an analytical solution of the Ginzburg-Landau model (GLM). The coefficients in the GLM involve the scaled Rayleigh-number, the solutal Rayleigh-numbers, the solutal diffusivity rates, the bi-viscous Bingham fluid parameter, and the cross-diffusion parameters. The solutal Rayleigh-numbers, the solutal diffusivity rates, and the bi-viscous Bingham fluid parameter alone determine the critical-Rayleigh-number, which provides the condition for the stationary onset. The neutral curves for the stationary mode are examined. It is found that the solutal diffusivities and bi-viscous Bingham fluid parameter advance the onset of convection, whereas the solutal Rayleigh-numbers delay it. The Nusselt number, Nu, and the Sherwood numbers, Sh1 and Sh2, determine the heat- and mass-transfer rates obtained for the convection system. We see that Nu, Sh1 and Sh2 increase with an increase in the values of the bi-viscous Bingham fluid parameter. Also, we observe that increase in the Prandtl number effect increases them, and the same is true of the solutal Rayleigh-numbers, whereas the opposite impact on Nu, Sh1 and Sh2 is seen for solutal diffusivities, Soret and cross-diffusion parameters. In general, we observe that mass-transfer is more than the heat-transfer (Sh1>Sh2>Nu) depending on the value of diffusivities.
