We have recently shown that the dispersion and the energy square relative uctuations of a ΓΏnite system in contact with a ΓΏnite heat bath depends on the number of degrees of freedom of the system and of the bath. In this paper, we present numerical simulations which support this result.
Critical properties have been evidenced in the case of a hydrodynamical instability triggered by a local heating in a fluid which presents a free surface. The heating is provided electrically along a straight wire. Above a given electrical power a pattern appears under the form of propagative waves.
