Abstract
Two-phase states of equilibrium of a thin superconducting film carrying a current under conditions of convective heat exchange at the free surface of the film are studied. It is shown that for a classical superconductor the two-phase state of the film remains a single-front state over a wide range of parameters of the system. For high-T c superconductors there exists a maximum value of the Steckl number above which weakly nonequilibrium stationary states can only be multifront states. The solutions of the boundary-value problem modeling a two-front state of equilibrium are investigated, and the conditions under which they obtain are examined.
