Abstract
The solution of the differential equation describing the equilibrium meniscus in a vertical right circular cylinder is obtained over the entire range of contact angles and Bond numbers (dimensionless ratios of gravitational to capillary forces) for which a stable meniscus exists. The first few terms of the asymptotic series valid for Bond numbers of small and large magnitude are given, and the numerical solution for intermediate values is computed. The behaviour of the solution as a function of contact angle and Bond number is depicted graphically.
