Linear stability of a convective flow generated by nonhomogeneous internal heat sources between two parallel vertical planes is investigated in the paper. A uniform magnetic field is applied in the direction perpendicular to the planes. Analytical solution for the base flow velocity and temperature distribution is obtained. Linear stability of the base flow is analyzed numerically. Numerical results show stabilizing effect of the magnetic field and destabilizing effect of inhomogeneity of internal heat sources.
