In the current work, in the presence of a heat source and temperature gradients, the onset of triple-diffusive convective stability is studied for a fluid, and a fluid-saturated porous layer confined vertically by adiabatic limits for the Darcy model is thoroughly analyzed. With consistent heat sources in both layers, this composite layer is subjected to three temperature profiles with Marangoni effects. The fluid-saturated porous region's lower boundary is a rigid surface, while the fluid region's upper boundary is a free surface. For the system of ordinary differential equations, the thermal surface-tension-driven (Marangoni) number, which also happens to be the Eigenvalue, is solved in closed form. The three different temperature profiles are investigated, the thermal surface-tension-driven (Marangoni) numbers are calculated analytically, and the effects of the heat source/sink are studied in terms of corrected internal Rayleigh numbers. Graphs are used to show how different parameters have an impact on the onset of triple-diffusive convection. The study's parameters have a greater influence on porous layer dominant composite layer systems than on fluid layer dominant composite layer systems. Finally, porous parameters and corrected internal Rayleigh numbers are stabilize the system, and solute1 Marangoni number and ratio of solute2 diffusivity to thermal diffusivity of fluid are destabilize the system.

The effect of a heat source and temperature gradient on Brinkman–Bènard Triple-Diffusive magneto-Marangoni (BBTDMM) convection in a two-layer system is investigated. The two-layer system is horizontally infinite and is surrounded on all sides by adiabatic boundaries. It is exposed to basic uniform and non-uniform temperature profiles and heat sources. The appropriate eigenvalues and thermal Marangoni numbers (TMNs), which depend on temperature and concentration, are obtained for the temperature profiles (TPs) for lower rigid and higher free boundaries with surface tension. The transformed system of ordinary differential equations is solved by using an exact technique. For all three TPs, the impact of significant relevant parameters on these eigenvalues, and hence on BBTDMM convection, are investigated versus the thermal ratio. It is observed that, by increasing the values of the modified internal Rayleigh number for the fluid layer and the solute Marangoni numbers, the Darcy number, and the viscosity ratio for the set of physical parameters chosen in the study, one can postpone BBTDMM convection. Higher values of the modified internal Rayleigh numbers for the porous layer augment BBTDMM convection.
