Abstract: The flow of heated water films at high temperature gradients on water surface has been experimentally studied. The interaction between waves and thermocapillary instability has been studied using a new method of synchronous measurement of film thickness and surface temperature fields. It has been indicated that wave fronts are mainly deformed in the initial heating section as a result of the interaction between these fronts and a thermocapillary structure, which is formed in the residual layer in the heater forward edge area.
