Energy mechanism for the instability of liquid jets with thermocapillarity

Xu and Davis [J. Fluid Mech. 161, 1–25 (1985)] examined the stability of long axisymmetric liquid jet subjected to an axial temperature gradient, finding capillary, surface-wave, and hydrodynamic modes. They showed that capillary breakup can be retarded or even suppressed for a small Prandtl number...
