1 and 2 mean the same and both present tense but 2 is used far more often and you need to phrase 1 in a specific way to sound natural
1 - the temperature showed the pattern of consistent rising
2 - the temperature is consistently rising
3 is the past tense version -> the temperature had consistently risen

Consistently rising = the rate at which the rising occurs is the same throughout the rising period.
Consistently risen = the object rises evenly over the whole object.
Imagine making a loaf of bread. Consistently rising = the bread rises at the same rate for the whole time that the yeast is active.
Consistently risen = that both ends of the bread rise to the same height.
Inconsistently risen = one end of the bread is flat and hasn’t got air bubbles, but the other end is high and fluffy.
