| Abstract | A thin liquid layer of a non-Newtonian film falling down an inclined plane that is subjected to non-uniform heating has been considered. The temperature of the inclined plane is assumed to be linearly distributed and the case when the temperature gradient is positive or negative is investigated. The film flow is influenced by gravity, mean surface-tension and thermocapillary force acting along the free surface. The coupling of thermocapillary instability and surface-wave instabilities is studied for two-dimensional disturbances. A non-linear evolution equation is derived by applying the long-wave theory and the equation governs the evolution of a power-law film flowing down an inclined plane. The linear stability analysis shows that the film flow system is stable when the plate temperature is decreasing in the downstream direction while it is less stable for increasing temperature along the plate. Weakly non-linear stability analysis using the method of multiple scales has been investigated and this leads to a secular equation of the Ginzburg-Landau type. The analysis shows that both supercritical stability and subcritical instability are possible for the film flow system. The results indicate the existence of finite-amplitude waves and the threshold amplitude and non-linear speed of these waves are influenced by thermocapillarity. The results for the dilatant as well as pseudoplastic fluids are obtained and it is observed that the result for the Newtonian model agrees with the available literature report. The influence of non-uniform heating of the film flow system on the stability of the system is compared with the stability of the corresponding uniformly heated film flow system. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
