Combined influences of Soret effect and horizontal magnetic field on dynamics of vertical convection in binary fluids

Vertical convection in the presence of a magnetic field has found wide-ranging applications in metallurgy and astrophysics. In the field of metallurgy, magnetic fields are commonly employed to regulate the stability during material formation, resulting in a more uniform distribution of materials and thereby significantly enhancing the quality of the final products. In this process, the combined regulatory mechanism of buoyancy and Lorentz forces plays a crucial role. Therefore, this paper systematically studies this dynamic mechanism over a wide range of parameters. A deeper understanding of these underlying mechanisms will help further improve the quality of metallurgical products.
