Does ohmic heating influence the flow field in thin-layer electrodeposition?

Pattern Formation and Solitons 2009-11-07 v2

Abstract

In thin-layer electrodeposition the dissipated electrical energy leads to a substantial heating of the ion solution. We measured the resulting temperature field by means of an infrared camera. The properties of the temperature field correspond closely with the development of the concentration field. In particular we find, that the thermal gradients at the electrodes act like a weak additional driving force to the convection rolls driven by concentration gradients.
