Extract

The effective Rayleigh number, in the solar convection zone, soon reaches a value of the order of 106 and, although considerable progress has been made in the numerical integration of the basic system of differential equations at high Rayleigh number, it is of interest to investigate more fully the application of asymptotic methods to such a problem.
