The transfer of heat and mass by convection in fluid layers is a challenging task as it can be driven by different factors. In the present paper the coupled action of viscosity and thermal diffusivity, both stratified, is investigated. The thermal conduction steady state is found and it is shown that: (1) steady convection occurs; (2) linear stability guarantees nonlinear asymptotic exponential energy stability and global attractivity.

Abstract
The transfer of heat and mass by convection in fluid layers is a challenging task as it can be driven by different factors. In the present paper the coupled action of viscosity and thermal diffusivity, both stratified, is investigated. The thermal conduction steady state is found and it is shown that: (1) steady convection occurs; (2) linear stability guarantees nonlinear asymptotic exponential energy stability and global attractivity.File in questo prodotto:
