Fluid dynamics

the long-wave instability of a liquid film flowing down an incline, which develops surface waves above a critical Reynolds number.

In fluid dynamics, falling film instability refers to the long-wave instability of a liquid film flowing down an incline, which develops surface waves above a critical Reynolds number. This meaning comes from Benjamin (1957) in Journal of Fluid Mechanics.[1]
