Abstract

In a previous calculation I obtained an approximate expression for the low-Reynolds-number heat-exchange drag in liquid helium II, valid only for low heating Reynolds number. In this paper an exact calculation of the drag is given, valid for low Reynolds number and arbitrary heating Reynolds number.
