Surface flow of surfactant layer on air/water interface

© 2017 Elsevier B.V. This study shows that a heat gradient can produce a surface flow on a surfactant layer. The flow was directly observable via a movement of a floating Teflon ball. A model was developed to quantify the driving force. The model indicated that the movement was generated by the loca...
