Abstract
In a binary system of a background fluid-wave field, the wave effect may be important in some cases. From general properties of thermodynamics of the medium, we derive the coupling equations for the mean flow-wave field. For six wave modes (Langmuir wave, ion-acoustic oscillations, whistlers, Alfvén waves, magneto-acoustic oscillations, and transverse plasma wave) the corresponding representation of the wave stress tensor is found. Finally, the representation for the Alfvén waves is applied to the faculae heating and a result consistent with observations is obtained.
