Analysis of film break-up and dry patch stability

The stability of stationary dry patches in a thin, heated liquid film was analyzed according to previous models and compared with recent experimental data. Previous analysis indicate that dry patch stability is expressed in terms of a balance of forces at the upstream edge of the dry patch: a press...
