abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">In this paper, we study the Marangoni effects in the mixture of two Newtonian
fluids due to the thermo-induced surface tension heterogeneity on the interface.
We employ an energetic variational phase field model to describe its physical
phenomena, and obtain the corresponding governing equations defined by a modified Navier-Stokes equations coupled with phase field and energy transport. A mixed
Taylor-Hood finite element discretization together with full Newton&#39;s method are applied
to this strongly nonlinear phase field model on a specific domain. Under different
boundary conditions of temperature, the resulting numerical solutions illustrate that
the thermal energy plays a fundamental role in the interfacial dynamics of two-phase
flows. In particular, it gives rise to a dynamic interfacial tension that depends on the
direction of temperature gradient, determining the movement of the interface along a
sine/cosine-like curve.</p>},
