Abstract
In this paper we consider the problem of non-linear convection in a compressible layer with polytropic structure. After deriving the appropriate forms of the basic conservation equations a single mode expansion is used to obtain a simpler model, within the framework of the anelastic approximation. These equations are integrated, using a band-matrix algorithm, for two characteristic density stratifications. The results are given in the form of graphs and are discussed in detail. An outline of the numerical algorithm is given in an appendix together with a discussion of its effectiveness.
