Abstract
The results of comparative experiments on the convection of magnetic fluids and molecular binary fluid mixtures in connected vertical channels heated from below are discussed. In both media, near the equilibrium stability threshold, flows in the form of specific swing oscillations are observed. The results of the experiment form a basis for a three-component model for magnetic fluid convection which takes into account the thermodiffusion separation of the dispersion medium components and the weak sedimentation of magnetic particles. The results of numerical simulation and experiment are compared.
