Abstract
The lubrication of flat threads passing along a drum is studied taking hydrodynamic friction into account. The tension varies along the thread, and it is shown that it can be much larger at the outlet than at the inlet. Friction is introduced by using a new dimensionless friction parameter . Complete dimensionless analytical solutions and numerical solutions are obtained for various values of so that all the parameters relevant to a practical situation can easily be calculated.
