Rotationally-axisymmetric motion of a binary mixture with a flat free boundary at small Marangoni numbers is investigated. The problem is reduced to the inverse linear initial-boundary value problem for parabolic equations. Using Laplace transformation properties the exact analytical solution is obtained. It is shown that a stationary solution is the limiting one with the growth of time if there is a certain relationship between the temperature of the solid wall and the external temperature of the gas. If there is no connection, the convergence to the stationary solution is broken. Some examples of numerical reconstruction of the temperature, concentration and velocity fields are given, which confirm the theoretical conclusions
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
