Dissipative hydrodynamic oscillators

III.—Electrohydrodynamic interfacial waves

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento D

Summary

Provided here are predictions concerning the onset of transverse gravity-electro-capillary waves at the interface of two fluids when either a tangential or an orthogonal electric field is imposed to the interface. Particular applications include air-oil and air-mercury interfaces.

Riassunto

Si presentano qui le previsioni che riguardano l'insorgenza di onde gravitazionali elettrocapillari trasversali nell'interfaccia di due fluidi quando un campo elettrico tangenziale o ortogonale viene imposto all'interfaccia. Particolari applicazioni includono interfacce ariaolio e aria-mercurio.

Резюме

В работе делаются предсказания, касающиеся возникновения поперечных гравитационно-электро-капиллярных волн на границе раздела двух жидкостей, когда на границу раздела накладывается либо тангенциальное, либо ортогональное электрическое поле. Рассматриваются некоторые применения к границам раздела воздух-нефть и воздухртуть.
