Abstract

The meniscus profiles determined numerically by White & Tallmadge (1965) have been found to be in error. Accordingly, the reported values of meniscus height and curvature at the top of the meniscus are also in error. These errors were initially suspected by observing that top curvatures calculated from the reported values of height fell below the minimum possible (flat plate) value at large radii.
