Cet article présente les points essentiels d'un traitement non-Boussinesq nécessaire pour une analyse théorique des écoulements de base dans une colonne thermo-gravitationnelle, où le coefficient de Soret ST dépend de la température et de la composition, ST(T,C). Le résultat principal est que la structure horizontale est contrôlée par la dépendance thermique de ST, alors que la dépendance compositionnelle de ST fixe la structure de la stratification compositionnelle verticale.

This article focuses on the main aspects of the non-Boussinesq treatment that is required for analyzing the simplest flow regimes occurring in a tall thermo-gravitational column, when the Soret coefficient ST is considered as depending upon temperature and composition, ST(T,C). As a main result, the horizontal dynamics is mainly governed by the Soret thermal sensitivity, and the species vertical separation by its compositional one.
