Abstract
A theoretical treatment is presented to obtain the relationship between the flow parameters of liquid entrainment from a bath of pseudoplastic liquid. A nonlinear method combined with the thin film approximation is applied. The resulting equation allows the prediction of the dimensionless film thickness as a function of the capillary number Ca, physical and rheological properties of the liquid and the withdrawal angle.
