Slow motion of a conducting fluid between two rotating walls

  • Published:
Applied Scientific Research, Section B

Summary

An investigation is presented of the flow of a viscous, conducting fluid between two plane walls, which rotate around a common axis towards each other. The flow is considered to be under the influence of a magnetic field, set up by a line-current along the axis of rotation.

Under the assumption of low hydrodynamic and magnetic Reynolds-number, expressions are given for the velocity and the pressure gradient.
