Abstract
In the first part, the stability of two-dimensional parallel flow is discussed. A more restrictively general stability criterion for inviscid parallel flow is obtained analytically. In the second part, we report the numerical simulations of the partial-penetrating flow in horizontal convection within a squire cavity tank at high Rayleigh numbers . The fast estab but slowly steadied flow is simulated, where a shallow and closed circulation cell is obtained numerically as partial-penetrating flow for the first time, which is consistent with the experiment.
