Hi friends

Can any one of you tell me how to find liquid film thickness over a flat plate in paraFoam

I was able to generate an iso surface for liquid film but I'm struggling to find its distance from the wall boundary

any help please

Hi,

The technique depends on the the thickness level you are trying to measure. But there are literature where Spectrcoscopic Ellipsometry is used to measure the height of the liquid droplet.
