Abstract

The effect of variations of the internal surface energy due to local increments in the interfacial area on the conditions of onset of thermocapillary Marangoni instability in a two-layer system of reduced-viscosity fluids is studied. It is shown that in the linear approximation the effect considered leads to stabilization of the development of the monotonic instability mode.
