Abstract

The flow of a thin viscous conducting liquid film falling along one of the plates of a vertically positioned plane capacitor is studied. The capacitor is connected to an alternating current power supply. It is shown that the presence of the electric field leads to flow destabilization; moreover, the parametric resonance of capillary waves is observed.
