Abstract: | In a conventional Kapitza resistance experiment involving heat transfer across a copper surface into liquid helium, an acoustic streaming velocity field (at 10 MHz) was directed transverse to the surface normal. Ultrasound had no observable effect on the heat transfer to the superfluid phase (He-II), but in the normal fluid phase (He-I) the thermal conductance increased linearly with acoustic velocity amplitude, reaching a value 2.5 times the zero sound conductance for a sound velocity amplitude of 0.8 cm s?1. |
