Abstract

An annular liquid layer is subjected in a zero-gravity environment to different harmonic axial excitations. The liquid is treated as frictionless and is held together by free surface tension, which acts as the restoring force. The response of the system has been determined for the free surface elevation and the velocity distribution. It was found, that the first resonance response is sharply tuned and could easily be missed in a sweeping experiment. Damping was introduced in the resonance terms.
