Abstract

The motion of the upper free surface of a liquid column released from rest in a vertical, conical container is analyzed theoretically and experimentally. An inviscid, one-dimensional model, for a slightly expanding pipe's radius, describes how the recently reported super free fall of liquids occurs in liquids of very low viscosity. Experiments agree with the theoretical results.
