Abstract Experiments were performed on laminar, vertical, annular, liquid curtains to study the dynamics of steady curtains, and the onset and frequency of oscillating curtains. The experiments were conducted to observe the effects of inertia and pressure on liquid curtains with different surface tensions. For steady curtains, convergence lengths were measured as functions of Froude number and pressure differential for three different surface tensions. The factors causing the onset of oscillations in a pressurized curtain were observed and the frequency of the internal pressure fluctuations were measured for various Froude numbers and two surface tensions.
