摘要
Recently we proposed a phase field model to describe Marangoni convection in a compressible fluid of van der Waals type far from criticality [Eur. Phys. J. B 44, 101 (2005)]. The model previously developed for a two-layer geometry is now extended to drops and bubbles. A randomly distributed initial density evolves towards phase separation and single droplet formation. For a two-component liquid-liquid system we report on numerical simulations for drop Marangoni migration in a vertical thermal gradient.
