Steady thermocapillary flows and their stabilityThermocapillarity can drive steady flows in float-zone configurations. These flows can become unstable and exhibit time-periodic oscillations. In order to obtain insight into such phenomena, studies are made of a simplified system consisting of liquid in a two-dimensional slot. Steady flows and their instabilities are examined.
