Film shape of partially wetting liquid while flowing down wetted surface

The paper presents a method for noncontradictory description of a dynamic contact angle ofpartially wetting liquid while it flows down the hard surface. An additional chemical potential (disjoining pressure) is taken into account, when considering fluid particles in the liquid thin layers near the three-phase contact line. The application of the developed theory is demonstrated by calculating the liquid surface shape at different speeds.
