Abstract

The formation of convective cells in a fluid between two horizontal rigid boundaries with time-periodic temperature distribution is studied by the use of the Floquet theory. Numerical results for the critical Rayleigh number are given for a Prandtl number of 0·73 (air) and for various values of the frequency and magnitude of the primary temperature oscillation. Some numerical results for a Prandtl number of 7·0 (water) are also given. The most striking feature of the results is that the disturbances (or convection cells) oscillate either synchronously or with half frequency.
