Abstract
Influenced by the article of Vadasz [1], an analysis has been carried out t
o investigate convective instability due to centrifugal acceleration in an
anisotropic porous medium. Results reveal that anisotropy in thermal diffus
ivity destabilizes the system whereas that in permeability has the opposite
effect.
