| Abstract: | The first experimental observation of a thermomechanical effect in a homeotropically planaroriented nematic liquid crystal
is reported. The effect consists of the appearance of a hydrodynamic flow induced by a longitudinal temperature gradient.
The measured value of the thermomechanical coefficient agrees well with the theoretical estimate.
