“…It was shown also in ref that the conventional dispersion relation, which connects the characteristics of surface waves with the surface properties, holds at least for dilute polymer solutions. Different forms of this equation have been presented in the literature. ,,,− ,− In this work we will use thedispersion relation for surface waves in the liquid of finite depth
where k = 2π/λ + iα is the complex wavenumber, α is the damping coefficient, λ is the wavelength, g is the gravitational acceleration, m 2 = k 2 − iωρ/μ, σ is the surface tension, μ is the viscosity, ρ is the density, and h is the depth of the liquid in the trough (in our work h = 15 mm).…”
