Abstract

Abstract: The influence of heat sources on instability in rotating viscoelastic liquids is studied. Linear stability analysis is done using normal modes. Computations are done for 10 boundary combinations and the results reveal that convection manifests via the oscillatory mode in this case. The critical values of the oscillatory and stationary instability have been studied. The results indicate individual stabilizing influences of rotation and strain retardation along with heat source in the case of free isothermal boundary conditions. It has quite unpredictable influences on the system stability in all the other boundary conditions for the chosen parameters. By suitable limiting processes, results pertaining to Oldroyd liquid B will lead to those of Maxwell, Newtonian, and Rivlin–Ericksen liquids. The problem finds applications in a working media consisting of viscoelastic liquids with nonisothermal systems.
