Abstract
Abstract Analysis of fluid flow in a bidispersive medium with reactions is explored. The Darcy model is used in the momentum equation with the density being a linear function in temperature and salt concentration. Two cases are regarded which are heated below and salted above system and heated and salted below system. It is presumed that the equilibrium solute concentration follows a linear relationship to temperature. A linear instability and nonlinear stability theories are conducted, and from the outputs of the analysis, the Chebyshev collocation approach is used to solve the resulting eigenvalue systems. The effects of the chemical reaction and other parameters on temperature Rayleigh number are described graphically.
