An ultra-thin liquid film flowing down a vertical uniformly heated cylinder under the influence of gravity is investigated. A thin liquid film model is derived, assuming that the film thickness h is much smaller than the fiber radius a. To predict the breakup of film, the van der Waals attraction, p...
