- •
Marangoni convection in a horizontal layer of a nanofluid is investigated.
- •
No research was conducted regarding stability of Marangoni convection in nanofluid.
- •
Numerical results show that the layer is less stable when nanoparticles are present.
- •
The model used incorporates the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis.
- •
Results are applied to several ethanol and distilled water based nanofluids.
