In the this paper our results on the natural convection in an enclosed rotating cavity are presented. We have focused our attention on the influence of the Rayleigh and Taylor numbers on the flow structure. DNS computations have been performed for the geometry of aspect ratio L = 9 and curvature parameter Rm = 1.5.
