The paper deals with consideration of a long-wave approximation for the problem of thermocapillary convection in two-layer fluid confined between parallel solid plates, with a constant temperature difference sustained between the plates. The problem for description of convection is reduced to a system of two quasilinear equations to determine the interface level and the pressure of one medium. In the derived long-wave approximation, the bifurcation problem is studied for equilibrium states.
