Surface Tension Gradients Induced by Temperature: The Thermal Marangoni Effect
Gugliotti, Marcos; Baptisto, Mauricio S.; Politi, Mario J.
Journal of Chemical Education, v81 n6 p824 Jun 2004
Surface tensions gradients were generated in a thin liquid film because of the local increase in temperature, for demonstration purposes. This is performed using a simple experiment and allows different alternatives for heat generation to be used.
