Nonlinear analysis in a rotating Rayleigh-Benard system of electrically conducting fluid is studied numerically in the presence of externally applied horizontal magnetic field with rigid-rigid boundary conditions [1, 2]. This DNS approach is carried near the onset of convection to study the flow behaviour in the limiting case of Prandtl number [2]. The flow topology is verified with respect to the Euler number. The fluid flow is visualized in terms of streamlines, limiting streamlines, isotherms and heatlines. The dependence of the Nusselt number on the Rayleigh number, Ekman number, Elsasser number is examined.
