Abstract

The decay of the developed energy cascade of vortex motion on the water surface excited by perpendicular standing waves at a frequency of 6 Hz is investigated experimentally. It is shown that after the pumping is switched off, the relaxation process begins from the large wave vectors k and occurs in the quasi-adiabatic mode: the Kolmogorov energy distribution proportional to k−5/3 is maintained for a long time due to the nonlinear interaction of vortices.
