Abstract
Transport phenomenon has been investigated over the He II film on a perspex surface. Some peculiarities have been established that were not observed before with other substrate materials. Emptying a perspex container takes place not only with positive but with negative level differences as well. In filling the container the transport starts only when the outer liquid surface is near the ampoule rim and ceases long before the levels become equal. A qualitative explanation of the observed phenomena has been suggested, namely, as a result of electrification of the substrate.
