Sound in an ideal fluid• An oscillatory motion with small amplitude in a compressible fluid is called
a sound wave. At each point, a sound waves causes alternate compression or rarefaction.

Two thermodynamic variables are sufficient to define the thermodynamic state of a single-phase fluid, say, density and entropy. But, in ideal fluid, entropy is constant, hence, there is only one independent thermodynamic variable, density. Variations of pressure,

It is easy to show that the oscillatory fluid motion defined by the linearized equations is irrotational (similar to the Lecture: Gravity Waves). Hence, it is convenient to introduce the velocity potential,

This is because the dissipative effects are neglected, so the relation for the ideal fluid was obtained.

The higher frequency the higher dissipation. All mechanisms of dissipation makes equal contribution.

Absorption of sound at a solid wall• Strong absorption must occur when a sound wave is reflected from a solid
wall: • Near a solid wall, there is a periodically fluctuating temperature difference
between the fluid and the wall. At the wall itself, however, the temperatures of the wall and the adjoining fluid must be the same. As a result, a large temperature gradient is formed in a thin boundary layer of fluid, which results in a large dissipation by thermal conduction.
• For a similar reason, the fluid viscosity leads to strong absorption of sound when the wave is incident in an oblique direction. In this case the fluid velocity in the wave (in the direction of propagation) has a non-zero component tangential to the surface. At the surface itself, however, the fluid must completely ‘adhere.’ Hence a large velocity gradient must occur in the boundary layer of fluid, resulting in a large viscous dissipation.
