Abstract

Two mechanisms by which a viscous fluid can be deposited on a plane surface are described. Measurement of the thickness of the deposit are compared with calculated values. It is found that the two agree within rather wide limits of experimental error provided the effect of surface tension can be neglected, and the conditions under which this is legitimate are discussed.
