Wavy regimes of film flow down a fiber

Wavy regimes of film flow down a fiber

We consider axisymmetric traveling waves propagating on the gravity-driven flow of a liquid down a vertical fibre. Our starting point is the two-equation model for the flow derived in the study by Ruyer-Quil \emph{et al.} [\emph{J. Fluid Mech.} {\bf 603}, 431 (2008)]. The speed, amplitude and shape of the traveling …
