The location of a shock in rimming flow

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

In rimming flow, a thin film of viscous liquid is entrained on the inside of a horizontally rotating cylinder. We give an explicit criterion for determining whether or not shock solutions occur and show that the location and height of these shocks can be determined using a simple lubrication theory.
