Abstract
The thickness of a superfluid helium film in steady radial horizontal flow to a central sink has been determined at two radii. The thickness difference is found to be consistent with the prediction of Kontorovich, despite conditions which would favor recondensation from the vapor onto the flowing film.Keywords
