Some new parallel flows due to Lorentz forces in electrically conducting fluids

Fluid Dynamics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We investigate the fully developed flow between two parallel plates and the film flow over a plate in an electrically conducting fluid under the action of a parallel Lorentz force. Exact analytical solutions are derived for velocity, flow rate and wall shear stress at the plates. The velocity results are presented in figures. All these flows are new and are presented for the first time in the literature.
