RESUMEN
The stability of a non-isothermal circular Couette flow is analyzed when subjected to a dielectrophoretic force field. Outward and inward heating configurations are considered when the inner cylinder is rotating and the outer cylinder is at rest. In addition, an alternating voltage is applied between the two cylinders to induce a radial electric buoyancy that acts on the dielectric fluid. The linear stability analysis provides the threshold for the first transition to instability, as well as the corresponding wavenumber and frequency of the modes. This article is part of the theme issue 'Taylor-Couette and related flows on the centennial of Taylor's seminal Philosophical Transactions paper (part 1)'.
