Mechanism of energy dissipation in a droplet cluster

It has been shown that thermocapillary processes on the surface of the drops in a drop cluster that appears above a locally heated liquid ensure additional energy transfer. Thus, the drop cluster is a typical dissipative structure. The energy dissipated by an individual drop of the cluster has been...

Description
Summary:It has been shown that thermocapillary processes on the surface of the drops in a drop cluster that appears above a locally heated liquid ensure additional energy transfer. Thus, the drop cluster is a typical dissipative structure. The energy dissipated by an individual drop of the cluster has been estimated.
