Abstract

For a partially filled and deeply submersed membrane container, an analytic solution for similarity shape was studied. The static shape of a membrane container can be expressed as a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. These equations are combined into an integrable equation. The solution of the equation is derived in terms of elliptic integrals, the arguments of which contain an unknown at the point of inflection. The point of inflection is determined by using the boundary condition at a separating point. Some characteristic values of the similarity shape were evaluated and the shapes are illustrated.
