摘要：
The effect of an insoluble surfactant on the stability of the gravity-driven flow of a liquid film down an inclined plane is investigated by a normal-mode analysis. Numerical solutions of the Orr-Sommerfeld equation reveal the occurrence of a stable Marangoni mode and a possibly unstable Yih mode, and demonstrate that the primary role of the surfactant is effectively to raise the critical Reynolds number at which instability is first encountered.
