Résumé : Thin nonisothermal liquid film flowing down under action oj gravity is considered. Investigation of the influence of the spanwise and streamwise arrangement of the rectangular heaters on 3-D structures, occurring at the film surface, is the main objective of the present work. Three-dimensional time-dependant mathematical model for calculation of gas-liquid interface deformations and evolution of temperature fields was developed. Our numerical investigations have shown that interaction, imposition and mutual influence of the 3D structures (bumps, lateral waves ...) takes place. In the case of streamwise arrangement of the heaters film rupture is most likely on the second heater. There is a critical backlash between the heaters, at which film deformations, including film thinning, are the largest. For the spanwise arrangement of the heaters distance between them practically do not effect on the minimum film thickness, but mutual imposition of the lateral waves and film thickening exists. © Z-Tec Publishing.
