Abstract
In the present paper, we study working of solar pond and discussed the principle of exchange of stability with reference to boundary conditions of a solar pond with lower boundary rigid and upper boundary dynamically free and there is continuous vertical upward magnetic field knows as generalized magnetohydrodynamicBérnard convection problem in the case when Lewis number not equal to zero, means there are both thermal as well as solute (salt) diffusion.
