AB - <p style="text-align: justify;">In this paper, we apply a recently proposed thermal axisymmetric
lattice Boltzmann model to the thermocapillary driven flow in a
cylindrical container. The temperature profiles and isothermal lines
at the free surface with Prandtl (Pr) number fixed at 0.01 and
Marangoni (Ma) number varying from 10 to 500 are measured and
compared with the previous numerical results. In addition, we also
give the numerical results for different Ma numbers at Pr=1.0. It is
shown that present results agree well with those reported in
previous studies.</p>
