Abstract
A Boussinesq fluid is heated from below. The applied temperature gradient is the sum of a steady component and a low-frequency sinusoidal component. An asymptotic solution is obtained which describes the behaviour of infinitesimal disturbances to this configuration. The solution is discussed from the viewpoint of the stability or otherwise of the basic state, and possible stability criteria are analyzed. Some comparison is made with known experimental results.
