Abstract

Features of nonlinear dynamics of thermal convection in an electrically conducting fluid layer heated from below and cooled from above subjected to a constant magnetic field are studied theoretically. The Galerkin truncated approximation is employed to derive a low dimensional Lorenz-like model. Numerical analysis was performed to examine the influence of magnetic field on the phase space trajectory of various chaotic regimes. The result indicates that it is possible to suppress or enhance the chaotic convection.
