Title: THE RAYLEIGH-TAYLOR INSTABILITY OF A ROTATING COMPRESSIBLE INVISCID FLUID

Journal Article · · Proc. Natl. Inst. Sci. India, Pt. A
OSTI ID:4033398

Rayleigh-Taylor instability of a rotating compressible inviscid fluid was investigated. The coriolis force for unstable configuration decreases the critical wavelength of perturbations that give rise to Rayleigh modes, while for stable configurations it increases this critical wavelength. (auth)
