Abstract
Long nonlinear two-dimensional traveling waves on a film driven by laminar gas flow are investigated numerically via solving Navier-Stokes equations. The evolution of their shape, amplitude, and speed with increasing Reynolds number is studied. The existence of solitary waves is demonstrated. A comparison between shear driven and gravity-capillary waves is made and discussed. It is shown that shear driven waves as compared to gravity driven waves are much higher for equal film Reynolds numbers and much slower for equal wave amplitudes.
