This Perspective highlights how evaporation influences foam stability through thermal and solutal Marangoni flows, suggesting new experimental approaches.
Evaporation can either stabilize or destabilize foam films through thermal and solutal Marangoni flows. This Perspective synthesizes findings from droplet evaporation studies, presents new measurements of temperature variations in evaporating foams and films, and proposes a psychrometric framework for predicting their thermal behavior. The authors identify key open questions and outline experimental and modeling strategies to unravel the complex coupling between evaporation, heat transfer, and foam stability.
