The effects of axial flow and surface mass-flux on the stability of the rotating-sphere boundary layer
A theoretical investigation is carried out into the linear stability of the boundary-layer flow around a rotating sphere immersed in an incompressible viscous fluid. Two potentially stabilising mechanisms are considered: a forced uniform axial flow in the surrounding fluid, and the introduction of m...
