✦ Synopsis

An integral method is used to obtain a closed form expression for the determination of hydrodynamic entrance length for falling liquid films emerging from a flat slit and flowing in laminar flow along an inclined flat plate. The results obtained from the present analysis are compared with the experimental data and numerical solutions and found to be in good agreement with them.

Accelerating laminar thin-film flow of power-law fluids along vertical walls is considered. The momentum integral method approach is used to predict the flow development in the hydrodynamic entrance region, and two different assumptions are employed for the streamwise velocity profile.

Three isolated waves of differing amplitude and shape were selected from experimental measurements of a falling liquid film at Re = 880 for study using an algorithm developed for solution of the Navier-Stokes equations. The method computes the velocity and pressure fields as well as the velocity of
