In this paper, we perform a linear stability analysis using normal modes on the two-dimensional system of two superposed fluids confined between two infinite plates in the presence of a large temperature gradient. The movement of the fluids is characterized by a combination of inertial and buoyancy forces, thus we are dealing with a mixed convection problem. The results of the linear stability analysis show that for large wave numbers, the small amplitude waves travel with the interface velocity.
