Abstract A thin plane sheet of fluid which is limited laterally and converges towards a point transforms itself into a sheet which diverges in a perpendicular plane. When the angle of convergence is small and the distribution of thickness in the converging sheet is elliptic the diverging sheet has the same shape as the converging sheet. Apparatus for producing such a sheet was set up and the shape of the stream and distribution of pressure in the region of the transformation were measured and compared with calculations.
