RAYLEIGH'S PROBLEM IN MAGNETOHYDRODYNAMICS FOR A NON-PERFECT CONDUCTOR
The extension of Rayleigh's problem to magnetohydrodynamics is considered for a nonperfect conductor in the presence of a transversely applied magnetic field. The governing equations for the fluid velocity and tbe eleotromagnetic quantities were obtained, and the Laplace transform of their solution was found. Results obtained for the particular cases of a perfect conductor and an insulator are compared. The viscous boundary-layer solution and the shearing stress were found, and their dependence on the conductivity of the conductor is discussed. (auth)
