Phys. Rev. E 66, 026307 (2002) [6 pages]Influence of ohmic heating on the flow field in thin-layer electrodepositionReceived 10 April 2002; published 21 August 2002 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 similar to a weak additional driving force to the convection rolls driven by concentration gradients. © 2002 The American Physical Society URL:
