Weakly Nonlinear Stability Analysis of a Thin Liquid Film With Condensation Effects During Spin Coating
Keyword(s):
This paper investigates the stability of a thin liquid film with condensation effects during spin coating. A generalized nonlinear kinematic model is derived by the long-wave perturbation method to represent the physical system. The weakly nonlinear dynamics of a film flow are studied by the multiple scales method. The Ginzburg–Landau equation is determined to discuss the necessary conditions of the various states of the critical flow states, namely, subcritical stability, subcritical instability, supercritical stability, and supercritical explosion. The study reveals that decreasing the rotation number and the radius of the rotating circular disk generally stabilizes the flow.
