| 内容記述 | Linear stability of the one-dimensional flow between infinite vertical coaxial cylinders induced by heating the inner cylinder is considered for various ratios (kappa) of the inner radius to the outer radius, and for Prandtl numbers (P) appropriate to air and water. For air with P = 0.71 the least stable disturbance is nonaxisymmetric for kappa less than 0.44 and is axisymmetric for kappa greater than 0.44, and in either case the instability is due to the action of the shear forces. For P = 3.5, the situation is similar, except that the asymmetric shear mode is superseded by an axisymmetric instability driven by buoyancy forces for kappa = 0.03-0.16. Wave speeds, wavenumbers, and critical Grashof numbers for these cases and for the case of zero Prandtl number are given. |
