Abstract
This paper deals with the theoretical investigation of the combined effect of magnetic field dependent (MFD) viscosity and rotation on ferroconvection saturating a porous medium in the presence of dust particles subjected to a transverse uniform magnetic field. For a flat fluid layer contained between two free boundaries, an exact solution is obtained. A linear stability analysis has been carried out to study the onset of ferroconvection. The cases of stationary convection and oscillatory modes have been discussed. In this paper, an attempt is also made to obtain the sufficient conditions for the non-existence of overstability.
