An analytical, theoretical investigation of mass transfer in a Newtonian, isothermal falling film displaying periodic, finite‐amplitude waves is presented. The solution derived provides full information on the mass transfer rate as expressed exclusively in terms of physical properties of the liquid and the completely determined flow.
