Marangoni convection in a horizontal liquid layer with insoluble surfactant / Ainon Syazana Ab Hamid

Thermocapillary (Marangoni) convection either steady or oscillatory is known to cause imperfection in the quality of products. The dynamics of the convective motion in a thin fluid layer and the gradients of the surface tension can be significantly altered by the presence of insoluble surfactant, in...
