| Abstract: | The development of latent images on the free surface of thermoplastic thin films is modeled by the finite-difference method. The mixed boundary-value problem for the Navier—Stokes equations is solved by an algorithm which avoids the standard difficulties of integration of continuity equations. The efficiency of the implicit schemes is analyzed by comparing the numerical and analytical solutions in the isothermal case. The allowance for energy balance makes it possible to compute the hydrodynamic and thermophysical parameters in conditions close to reality.Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR. Kiev University.
