On Entropy Wind in Superfluid Helium
arXiv:0901.2225
Abstract
Generation of a quasi-stationary flow of the superfluid helium normal part in the presence of intense first- and second-sound waves is studied. Relevant equations are obtained. The contribution to the process of energy dissipation at the shock front layer and of fluid viscosity is analysed in detail for the case of a second-sound wave. An estimate concerning possible experimental observation of the process is made.
