Summary: This study investigates the Marangoni spreading of a polymer-surfactant ternary solution deposited on a soap film with high surface tension. The experiments show that at low concentrations, the spreading dynamics are controlled by surface tension gradient and viscous dissipation, while at high concentrations, elastic forces dominate and lead to front destabilization.

Summary: This study investigates the Marangoni spreading dynamics and Marangoni synergism of binary surfactant mixtures. Experimental and modeling results confirm the synergistic effects of strong binary surfactant attraction on both surface tension reduction and Marangoni spreading. The study also finds that the thermodynamic parameter controls the spreading velocities at early times, while the kinetics of adsorption and desorption influence the occurrence of Marangoni synergism at later times.

Summary: The experimental study investigates the unstable equilibrium of an emulsion drop's lamella and rim after colliding with a solid surface at high temperatures, taking into account the emulsion concentration and the presence of a stable boundary vapor layer. It reveals the relationship between the delay time of lamella destabilization and the characteristics of diffusive and convective heat transfer. The study also demonstrates the combined effect of Weber number and emulsion concentration on the critical Rayleigh and Marangoni numbers.

Summary: Surfactant-driven Marangoni spreading generates a fluid flow characterized by an outwardly moving Marangoni ridge. Spreading on thin and/or high viscosity subphases, as most of the prior literature emphasizes, does not allow the formation of capillary waves. On deep, low viscosity subphases, Marangoni stresses may launch capillary waves coupled with the Marangoni ridge, and new dependencies emerge for key spreading characteristics on surfactant thermodynamic and kinetic properties.

Summary: Experiments were conducted to study the behavior of Benard-Marangoni (BM) cells induced by evaporation, revealing the presence of traveling waves in a liquid layer with initial thickness of 1.48-2.0 mm. The wave number of the traveling waves increased with the evaporation rate, gradually occupying the entire circumference of the cell.

Summary: This study investigates the nonlinear dynamics of patterns near the threshold of long-wave monotonic Marangoni instability of conductive state in a heated thin layer of liquid covered by insoluble surfactant. It analyzes pattern selection between roll and square planforms and studies the dependence of pattern stability on heat transfer and gravity at different surfactant concentrations. Using weakly nonlinear analysis, a set of amplitude equations governing the large-scale roll distortions are derived for the linear analysis of modulational instability of stationary rolls.

Summary: This study presents results of rheological tests and pressure drop measurements during the flow of aqueous solutions of a mixture of drag reducing surfactants through straight pipes. The formation of wormlike micelles was observed at temperatures below 10 degrees C. Drag reduction in the solutions was noted between 3 to 45 degrees C, with decreasing effectiveness at temperatures above 25 degrees C. The critical value of Re-c(,0) number for drag reduction onset was found to be dependent on temperature, pipe diameter, and surfactant weight ratio. The critical value of Re-c(,0) number has been linked to the clouding of CAPB/DEA solutions.

Summary: The attractiveness and variety of flavors in e-cigarettes attract young people to use them. However, studies have shown that the flavoring chemicals in e-cigarettes can have adverse effects on the function of pulmonary surfactants. This study used a new method called constrained drop surfactometry to investigate the biophysical impact of flavored e-cigarette aerosols on natural pulmonary surfactants. The results showed that different flavors of e-cigarette aerosols have a flavor-dependent inhibitory effect on the properties of pulmonary surfactants. A qualitative phase diagram was proposed to predict the potential hazards of different flavoring chemicals.

Summary: The dynamics of a droplet on a nonuniformly cooled liquid substrate was investigated using the longwave approximation. It was found that spatial temperature modulation caused the droplet to move towards regions of lower temperature, resulting in a change in its shape. Intensive cooling from below could lead to periodic or quasiperiodic oscillations or even the decomposition of the droplet. However, the oscillatory instability could be suppressed by spatial temperature modulation.

Summary: In this study, the researchers conducted direct experimental measurements on the microscopic temperature distribution near the contact lines of an evaporating pinned sessile drop. They found that the temperature at the free interface near the contact lines varies significantly along the radial direction, forming a concentric fringe pattern that evolves over the evaporation process. The formation of such patterns is attributed to enhanced evaporative cooling at the drop edge and the development of interfacial convective vortices due to Benard-Marangoni instability. The characteristics of these fringe patterns were found to vary with different initial contact angles. This experimental investigation provides insights into the dynamics of droplet evaporation in various heat transfer systems.

Summary: The study utilized PLIF technique to visually measure the transient Marangoni effect in interfacial mass transfer processes. It was found that the acidity of the solute has a significant impact on the occurrence of Marangoni effect. Neutralization reaction can diminish the Marangoni effect, while the density effect of solute coupled with Marangoni effect influences its location and evolution.

Summary: The size and properties of droplets, bubbles, emulsions, and foams are greatly influenced by dynamic interfacial tension (gamma(d)). However, this parameter is often difficult to measure due to the short time scales involved in droplet and bubble formation. To overcome this challenge, researchers have developed a microfluidic tensiometer that can measure gamma(d) by monitoring the formation time of droplets and bubbles. This tensiometer operates based on the principle of pressure balance and provides a simple and robust method to measure dynamic interfacial tension at relevant time scales.
