Abstract
The theoretical study of nonisothermal flows of magnetizable liquids presents serious matheical difficulties, which are intensified as compared to to the study of normal liquids by the necessity of simultaneous solution of both the hydrodynamics and Maxwell's equations, with corresponding boundary conditions for the magnetic field. Thus, in most cases problems of this type are solved by neglecting the effect of the liquid's nonisothermal state on the field distribution within the liquid, and also, as a rule, with use of an approximate solution for Maxwell's equations and fulfillment of the boundary conditions for the field [1–3]. The present study will present easily realizable practical formulations of the problem which permit exact one-dimensional solutions of the complete system of the equations of thermomechanic s of electrically nonconductive incompressible Newtonian magnetizable liquids with constant transfer coefficients. A common feature of the formulations is the presence of a longitudinal temperature gradient along the boundaries along which liquid motion is accomplished. Plane-parallel convective flows of this type in a conventional liquid and their stability were considered in [4–6].
