It has been observed experimentally that small bubbles in pure liquids can be held stationary or driven downwards by means of a sufficiently strong negative temperature gradient in the vertical direction. This effect is demonstrated to be due to the stresses resulting from the thermal variation of surface tension at the bubble surface. The flow field within and around the bubble is derived, and an expression for the magnitude of the temperature gradient required to hold the bubble stationary is obtained. This expression is verified experimentally.
