Linear global stability of a confined plume
A linear stability analysis is performed for a plume flow inside a cylinder of aspect ratio 1. The configuration is identical to that used by Lopez and Marques (2013) for their direct numerical simulation study. It is found that the first bifurcation, which leads to a periodic axisymmetric flow stat...
