Abstract
Oscillatory convection in viscoelastic ferromagnetic and dielectric liquids of the Rivlin-Ericksen, Maxwell and Oldroyd types is studied analytically by considering free-free, isothermal boundaries with idealized conditions on the magnetic / electric potential. The linear theory reveals the stabilizing nature of the strain retardation parameter and the destabilizing nature of the stress relaxation and magnetization / dielectric parameters. The Maxwell liquids are found to be more unstable than the one subscribing to the Oldroyd description whereas the Rivlin-Ericksen liquid is comparatively more stable. The results have implications in many non-isothermal applications of ferromagnetic and dielectric liquids especially in energy conversion devices.
