Andritsos and Hanratty (1978b) have shown that the increase in interfacial drag caused by waves in stratified gas‐liquid flows is related to the wave steepness. Recent analyses of finite amplitude Kelvin‐Helmholtz waves are used to develop a correlation for the ratio of the wave height to wavelength.
