Abstract: The paper deals with the linear stability analysis of laminar flow of a viscous fluid in a rotating porous medium in the form of an annulus bounded by two concentric circular impermeable cylinders. The usual no?slip condition is imposed at both the boundaries. The resulting sixth order boundary value, eigenvalue problem has been solved numerically for the small?gap case by the Runge?Kutta?Gill method, assuming that the marginal state is stationary. The results of computation reveal that the critical Taylor number increases with decreasing permeability of the medium. The problem is found to reduce to the case of ordinary viscous flow in the annulus obtained by Chandrasekhar,1 when the permeability parameter tends to zero. Copyright 1984 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd
