摘要
The onset of convection in a horizontal layer of a porous medium saturated by a nanofluid is analytically studied. The model used for the nanofluid incorporates the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis. For the porous medium, the Darcy model is employed. The effect of local thermal non-equilibrium among the particle, fluid, and solid-matrix phases is investigated using a three-temperature model. The analysis reveals that in some circumstances the effect of LTNE can be significant, but for a typical dilute nanofluid (with large Lewis number and with small particle-to-fluid heat capacity ratio) the effect is small.
