Experimental investigations are made to study the double-diffusive convection phenomena of a stably-stratified salt-water solution due to lateral heating in a stationary and rotating annulus. The primary objective of this study is to obtain the basic information on the nature of natural convection with time with various parametric conditions such as rotating velocity, temperature and concentration gradients. The experiments cover the ranges of Ar=2.0,Le=100, Ra=1.57 x10~@-3.09 x10~5,and Ta=0-1.20 x10~7.
