Coupled buoyancy (B6nard) and thermocapillary (Marangoni) convection in a thin fluid layer of a viscoelastic fluid are studied. The viscoelastic fluid is modeled by Jeffreys' constitutive equation. The lower surface of the layer is in contact with a rigid heat-conducting plate while its upper surfac

We consider a volatile fluid with a free surface. If the evaporation rate is large enough, the temperature gradient caused by latent heat may destabilize the conducting, motionless state and convection sets in. The conditions for instability are computed by means of a linear stability analysis of th
Thermal effects of the heat transfer at free surface (represented by Biot number) on the Rayleigh-Marangoni-Bénard instability in a system of liquid-porous layers with top free surface are investigated numerically. The results indicate that this thermal effect can evidently lead to the mode transiti
