Yes. Most important issue to overcome is convection within the tube.
This kills all diffusion experiments.
Please: use high temperature gas flow, small samples (in height as
well in diameters):

In normal liqiuds the 60 G/cm of hires probes are sufficient. Longest
gradient time is about 3 ms (try!). Play ith BIG DELTA (diffusion tine)-
In highly viscous smaples this gradiewnt strength maybe to less.
