摘要
Influence of rotation on thermocapillary instabilities is demonstrated from linear stability analysis of a parallel flow model relevant to crystal growth. It is shown that system rotation has a dramatic influence on transitions at parameter values typical of the microgravity environment of an orbiting space laboratory. Thus the Coriolis force must be included in the design of future space experiments. (C) 1996 American Institute of Physics.
