The paper analyses the influence of small variations of the boundary conditions on the solution of the Darcy-Boussinesq equation which describes the thermal convection in a porous medium heated from below. To this end, the flow behaviour with the growth of the parameter \(R_p\), which is an analog to the Rayleigh number, is investigated. The Galerkin method is used to study the bifurcation of the steady solutions with the change of the parameter \(R_p\). It has been found that with the increase of \(R_p\) up to the certain critical value \(R_1\) all the solutions remain stable. At \(R_p>R_1\) a part of the solutions loses stability, and with the further growth of \(R_p\) this part of unstable solutions increases. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0841.00021].
