Marangoni convection

Thin Film Thermocapillary Motion of Binary Alcohol-Containing Solution

Interphase convection is a widespread phenomenon that occurs in various branches of technology, including chemical technologies. The greatest interest in the case of thin liquid films is the Marangoni convection. Phase transitions significantly affect the convective flow, changing the coefficient of surface tension. In this paper, the behavior of a thin film of an alcohol-containing solution when it is heated is analytically studied.
