This paper deals with convective instability in a fluid-saturated, rotating porous layer subject to alternating direction of the centrifugal body force, when the layer fails to exhibit thermal equilibrium. The Darcy model is used to describe the flow, and a two-field model is used to take care of the energy exchange. The normal mode approach of the linear theory and the energy approach of the nonlinear theory are used to find the stability characteristics. Unconditional and sharp nonlinear thresholds are found. The study brings out the failure of the linear theory in describing the instability inmost parts of the parameter space of interest where possible subcritical instabilities may arise. The stability boundaries are presented graphically and it is found that the interphase heat transfer coefficient has a significant effect in the thermal non-equilibrium regime.
