The experimental investigation of sheet flows has been extended to large sheets (width=W=23.5 cm, length=L approximately=3.5 m). Experimental L/W results are greater than the calculated results. However, more experimental results are necessary for a complete comparison. The calculated emissivity of a sheet of Dow-Corning 705 silicone oil, which is a low temperature (300-400 K) candidate for a liquid sheet radiator, is greater than 0.8 for sheet thickness greater than 100 mu m.
