Control of Marangoni–Bénard convection

Abstract It is demonstrated that the critical Marangoni number for transition from the no-motion (conduction) to the motion state in the Marangoni–Benard problem of an infinite fluid layer heated from below and cooled from above can be increased through the use of feedback control strategies effecting small perturbations in the boundary data.
