Abstract
In this article, the joint effect of pulsating throughflow and magnetic field on the onset of convective instability in a nanofluid layer, bounded in a Hele-Shaw cell is presented within the context of linear stability theory and frozen profile approach. The model utilized for nanofluid combines the impacts of Brownian motion and thermophoresis, while for Hele-Shaw cell, Hele-Shaw model is considered. The Galerkin technique is utilized to solve the eigenvalue problem. The outcome of the important parameters on the stability framework is examined analytically. It is observed that the pulsating throughflow and magnetic field have both stabilizing effects. The impact of increasing the Hele-Shaw number
