Abstract
This article presents the performed experimental studies on the effect of the concentration of microparticles on free convection in a water drop located on a heated smooth and textured wall surface. It is shown that at a high concentration of particles, their aggregation and deposition take place on the wall and on the free surface of droplet. As a result, the average convection velocity in the droplet decreases significantly. Suppression of convection is important to consider when simulating heat transfer and droplet evaporation. The results obtained are important for technologies that use colloidal solutions (drops, films).
