Problem

Determine the acoustic streaming in the space between two plane-parallel walls (the planes

y = 0

and

y = h

), where there is a stationary sound wave (80.3). The distance

h

between the planes, which acts as the characteristic length

l

, satisfies the conditions (80.1) (Rayleigh 1883).
