Instabilities in non-isothermal falling thin film flows

The stability and dynamics of thin liquid films subjected to van der Waals attraction, thermocapillarity and evaporative instabilities at the free surface, is studied using numerical simulations. For a Newtonian liquid, flow in thin liquid film on a solid support and bounded by a passive gas is repr...

description The stability and dynamics of thin liquid films subjected to van der Waals attraction, thermocapillarity and evaporative instabilities at the free surface, is studied using numerical simulations. For a Newtonian liquid, flow in thin liquid film on a solid support and bounded by a passive gas is represented by Navier-Stokes equation, equation of continuity and appropriate boundary conditions. The external effects are generally incorporated in the body force term of the Navier-Stokes equation.
