“…At time = 0 we assume a straight interface with a concentration step, where = 1 corresponds to magnetic fluid and = 0 to non-magnetic fluid. The process can be theoretically mod-elled with a system of Brinkman, continuity and convectiondiffusion equations, as described in [13]. Without going in details, we note that the phenomenon is characterized with a dimensionless magnetic Rayleigh number = ( ) 2 ℎ 2 12 , where is the susceptibility of magnetic fluid, is magnetic field, ℎ is the cell thickness, is the fluid viscosity, assumed to be equal across the fluid, and is the diffusion coefficient of magnetic nanoparticles.…”
