Abstract
The effect of throughflow on the onset of Marangoni convection in a horizon
tal layer of micropolar fluid flow bounded below by a rigid isothermal surf
ace and above by a nondeformable Free adiabatic surface, for marginal state
, is studied. The determination of the critical Marangoni number entails so
lving the eigenvalue problem numerically for which the Single-term Galerkin
method is employed.
