Abstract

Liquids of low viscosity were studied through a series of experiments at high speed. New data was obtained on the old problem of the amount of liquid left behind a wetting drop moved in a tube. Above a threshold in velocity, the film was thicker than a Taylor film. This deviation toward Taylor's law was attributed to inertia.
