Abstract

The study was performed to analyze the flux of energy of internal gravitational-capillary waves in a two-layer hydrodynamic liquid system with finite layer thicknesses. The problem was considered for an ideal incompressible fluid in the field of gravity as well as taking into account the forces of surface tension. The problem was formulated in a dimensionless form for small values of the coefficient of nonlinearity. The dispersion of the gravitational-capillary progressive waves was studied in detail depending on the coefficient of surface tension and the ratio of layer densities. It was proved that with the increase in the wavenumber, the group velocity begins to pass ahead of the phase velocity and their equality occurs at the minimum of the phase velocity. Dependence of the total average energy flux on the wavenumber (wavelength) and thickness of the liquid layers was calculated and graphically analyzed for different values of physical quantities, in particular, density and the coefficient of surface tension. It follows from the analysis that the energy flux of gravitational internal waves increases to a certain maximum value with an increase in the thickness of the lower layer and then approaches a certain limit value. For capillary waves, the energy flux of internal waves is almost independent of the thickness of the lower layer. It was also shown that the average energy flux for gravitational waves at a stable amplitude is almost independent of the wavelength. On the contrary, for capillary waves, the energy flux increases sharply with an increase in the wavenumber.

The results of the analysis of the energy flux of internal progressive waves make it possible to qualitatively assess physical characteristics in the development of environmental technologies that use internal undulatory motions in various aquatic environments as a source of energy
