Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of the Coriolis force on axisymmetric rotating thin film flows
Timothy G. Myers,J.P.F. Charpin +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered the axisymmetric flow of a thin Newtonian fluid layer subject to centrifugal and Coriolis forces, surface tension and gravity, and employed lubrication theory to reduce the mathematical problem to the solution of a fourth-order nonlinear partial differential equation for the film height.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the flow of a thin liquid film over a rough rotating disk
TL;DR: In this paper, the depletion of thin viscous films due to centrifugation was studied and the depletion histories of the film were given for cases involving regular patterns of surface asperities.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of air shear on the flow of a thin liquid film over a rough rotating disk
TL;DR: In this article, the depletion of thin viscous films due to the combined effect of centrifugation, surface roughness, and air shear is addressed. But the depletion history of the thin film is not given for both deterministic and random surface asperities.

Investigation of the effect of the Coriolis force on a thin fluid film on a rotating disk
Ebrahim Momoniat,D.P. Mason +1 more
TL;DR: The effect of the Coriolis force on the evolution of a thin film of Newtonian fluid on a rotating disk is investigated in this article, in which inertia terms in the Navier-Stokes equation are neglected.
Journal ArticleDOI
The importance of the Coriolis force on axisymmetric horizontal rotating thin film flows
Timothy G. Myers,M. Lombe +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the steady axisymmetric flow of a thin fluid layer on a rotating disk is studied and it is shown that within the restrictions of lubrication theory the Coriolis force is of the same magnitude as inertia and therefore negligible at leading order.
