    Notes: The thermocapillary motion generated within a spinning vaporizing droplet is described. Rotation induces a swirling flow in the surrounding gas. This in turn establishes a nonuniform vapor concentration and temperature at the droplet surface. An internal circulation is thus created from the interfacial temperature gradients. This internal motion, described in the limits of small Reynolds and Marangoni numbers, appears as a pair of toroidal vortices. Depending on whether the gaseous Lewis number, Le, is less than or greater than one, the temperature along the surface peaks at either the poles or the equator of the droplet. Consequently, the direction of the internal circulation is from the poles to the equator or vice versa.

    Notes: The onset of two-dimensional convection with strongly temperature-dependent viscosity has been considered for a fluid obeying an Arrhenius law. The critical Rayleigh number Rc and the basic features of the flow field at criticality have been identified based on a linear stability analysis. Convective flow patterns near and beyond criticality have been determined based on a direct numerical simulation. It is shown that, as the Rayleigh number R increases beyond Rc, steady rolls first emerge supercritically and that at sufficiently large values of R there is a secondary Hopf bifurcation corresponding to pulsating cells; the peculiar structure of the flow field in each case has been described.
